Reduced Port Wine Saucedemi glace

This is a rich flavorful sauce that goes well with beef, pork, lamb and even chicken. (Although it is strong for chicken.) It’s very easy to make if you have the demi glace already. You want to use a good quality port wine.

Demi-glace keeps very well, about six months refrigerated or almost indefinitely frozen.

1/4btl. – Port Wine
1oz. – Shallots (fine chop)
1/4oz. – Garlic (chopped)
1/8oz. – Thyme (fresh chopped)
1/8oz. – Oregano (fresh chopped)
1qrt. – Demi Glace

Procedure:
Put into sauce pot shallots, garlic, herbs and port wine.Reduce on low heat until mixture is almost dry (don’t burn) add the demi glaze, and stir, bring to a low simmer just to marry flavors and bring demi to heat.
Serve with your favorite red meat or pork.
