3 tablespoons ground dried porcini mushrooms (Blend in a spice/coffee grinder or blender).
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the butter or drippings. Cook the garlic and onion for about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the flour and simmer for one minute.
Pour the red wine into the mixture. Whisk regularly to prevent lumps. Simmer the mixture for about two minutes.
Add the beef broth. Simmer for 2-3 more minutes until slightly thickened.
Pour the remaining ingredients into a mixing bowl and combine well.
Bring the mixture back to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to a low simmer for 15 minutes. Once the liquid starts to reduce, the process will be completed.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour the mixture into a strainer and strain it. It is best served immediately or kept refrigerated. Enjoy!
