This savory mushroom sauce uses beef broth instead of the pan drippings, which means it can be made ahead. Add arrowroot only when ready to serve for a lovely, smooth texture.

Ingredients

  • 0.25 cups butter
  • 2 cups fresh sliced white mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon shallots , minced
  • 0.5 cups chopped white mushrooms
  • 0.25 cups red wine
  • 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder or cornstarch
  • salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium pan over medium heat. Add 2 cups sliced mushrooms; sauté until soft. Remove mushrooms from pan; set aside.

  2. 2

    Add 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. Add shallots; cook and stir until translucent. Add ½ cup chopped mushrooms and cook until soft. Stir in red wine, thyme, and bay leaf; simmer until sauce reduces a little, about 1 minute.
