Orange Port Wine Sauce

Back 

Ingredients:

1 large shallot, minced (2 to 3 tablespoons)
1/3 cup port wine
1/3 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest
1/3 cup dried cranberries, minced*
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 can (15 ounce) beef consommé

Preparation:
Sauté shallots until translucent.  Pour in the port wine, orange juice, orange zest and cranberries and bring to a boil.  Simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes to reduce the mixture and thicken.  Puree using an immersion hand blender.  Whisk in butter to finish sauce.

I make this sauce early and just reheat it and add duck juices at the end. You can make a larger amount and freeze it for later use.


*I like to use Trader Joe’s Orange Flavored Dried Cranberries.
