Demi-glace
Demi-glace (from
French for "half-frozen") is a type of
brown sauce. It is one of the five classic sauces of French cooking and is common to the
culinary industry. It is traditionally made by combining equal parts of
beef or
veal stock and
espagnole which is then simmered and reduced by half. The result is a thick, rich
sauce. While the demi-glace is suited for meats and other rich dishes, it is more commonly used as a base for other rich sauces and soups.
