For this recipe you’ll need:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
    1 medium-size onion, medium dice
    1 carrot, peeled and cut into medium dice
    1 tablespoon tomato paste
    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup white wine
    2 1/2 cups beef stock
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 bay leaf
    2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    Salt and pepper to taste
    1 tablespoon cold butter
      1. Heat a heavy saucepan over medium heat and add the butter.

      2. Sauté the onion, celery and carrot until lightly caramelized, 5 to 6 minutes.

      3. Add the tomato paste and continue to cook an additional minute.

      4. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 additional minute. Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping free any browned bits known as fond off the bottom of the pan.

      5. Add the stock, thyme and bay leaf and whisk to combine the ingredients. Bring the sauce to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10 to15 minutes, or until the sauce is reduced slightly.

      6. Remove the bay leaf and whisk in the mustard. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk in the cold butter and serve.
