Equipment

  • strainer
  • Measuring spoons
  • saute pan
  • Saucepan

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp rendered goose fat
  • 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp madeira
  • 1/2 cup beef stock
  • 1 tsp tomato paste
  • 1 Tbsp veal glaze
  • 1 md black truffle peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 md peeled and finely chopped shallots
  • 1 Tbsp sweet butter unsalted
  • 1 Tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped

Instructions

  • Begin by melting 1 tablespoon of rendered goose fat in a reduction pan over low heat. Ensure the heat is gentle to avoid burning.
  • Add the finely chopped shallots to the melted goose fat. Cook them over low heat until they become softened. Be cautious not to let the shallots brown; the goal is to achieve a soft texture.
  • Pour in 2 teaspoons of truffle liquid from the preserved jar. Add the truffle peelings, 2 tablespoons of madeira, 1/2 cup beef stock, 1 teaspoon tomato paste, and 1 tablespoon veal glaze. Stir the mixture and let it simmer over low heat for approximately 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  • Remove the pan from heat and strain the sauce through a fine mesh strainer. Use a wooden spoon to gently press against the sauce, helping it pass through the strainer effectively.
  • Wipe out the reduction pan and return the strained sauce to it.
  • Season the sauce with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Introduce the thinly sliced black truffle to enhance the dish's earthy aroma.
  • Bring the sauce to a light boil and immediately reduce the heat to a low simmer. Allow the mixture to reduce by about a third, which should take approximately twenty minutes.
  • Remove the pan from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of sweet, unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley. This adds richness and a burst of fresh flavor to the sauce.
  • Transfer the prepared Perigourdine sauce to a sauceboat. Serve it while still warm, complementing your favorite dishes. Enjoy the luxurious and truffle-infused flavors!

  • Adjust the seasoning to suit your taste preferences for a personalized touch.
  • Double the recipe and store the extra sauce in an airtight container for future use.
