Yield Makes about 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 high-quality red wine, (750ml), or the leftovers from a few recently opened bottles
6 small or 2 medium-large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
Salt
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter

Steps:

Bring wine to a boil in a large saucepan set over high heat, and lower heat to a simmer. Cook wine until syrupy and reduced to 3/4 cup, about 20 minutes.
Place carrots in a small saucepan. Cover with water, adding a pinch of salt. Cook, covered, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain, reserving the cooking liquid. Transfer the carrots to a blender or food processor, and puree, adding a bit of the cooking liquid if the mixture is too thick.
Transfer the reduced wine to a bowl, and stir about 1/2 cup of the carrot puree into it. If the sauce is too thick, add a small amount of the reserved carrot cooking water. Adjust seasoning, and whisk in butter.

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup thinly sliced shallots (2 large)

1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup dry red wine

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Tips:

To achieve the best flavor, use high-quality ingredients. Opt for organic carrots and a robust red wine.
To enhance the sweetness of the carrots, roast them before adding them to the reduction.
Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the reduction from scorching.
Cook the reduction over medium heat, stirring frequently, to prevent sticking.
Reduce the sauce until it reaches a syrupy consistency, about 15-20 minutes.
Season the reduction with salt and pepper to taste.
For a richer flavor, add a pat of butter or a drizzle of olive oil to the reduction.
Serve the carrot red wine reduction immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
