Demi Glaze Nugget Markets signature recipes

This highly concentrated beef reduction has intense flavor perfect for amping up the richness in sauces, soups, and other dishes. Start with Homemade Beef Stock to make sure it has enough gelatin to thicken properly.

Ingredients

  • 1 large yellow onion, diced rough
  • 1 medium carrot, diced rough
  • 1 large celery rib, diced rough
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 quart beef stock
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • 1 sprig Italian parsley

Preparation

Toss vegetables in oil and sauté in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until onions and celery are translucent.

Add beef stock and herbs then bring to a simmer, but do not let it come to a boil. Simmer for 2–3 hours, until volume is reduced by half.

Strain through a fine mesh strainer. If not using immediately, portion into an ice cube tray to freeze for later use.
