BEEF BORDELAISE
Posting this for safe keeping. Bordelaise is an classic French sauce that's traditionally served with grilled or broiled beef. But it's also great with other meats, and it can also be spooned over sautéed mushrooms. Bordelaise is named for the Bordeaux region of France, which is famous for its award-winning wines.

Steps:
- 1. Heat skillet over medium heat and melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in skillet. Add the shallots and sauté for about 5 minutes or until almost soft. Add the wine, 3 sprigs fresh thyme, bay leaves, peppercorns and mace. Boil until sauce is reduced, about 10 minutes.
- 2. Add water to sauce and continue to reduce until 6 tablespoons of liquid remains. Remove from heat and discard thyme, bay leaves and large peppercorn chunks.
- 3. Meanwhile, preheat broiler.
- 4. While broiler is preheating, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan.
- 5. Season each steak with a pinch of sea salt. Then brush melted butter over steaks, and place under broiler for 3 to 6 minutes each side (3 minutes for rare, etc, or as preferred).
- 6. Spoon sauce over each steak, garnish each serving with a sprig of fresh thyme, and serve immediately.
