INGREDIENTS:

Butter, 4 Tablespoons

Marsala Wine, 2 cups

Dijon Mustard, 2 Tablespoons

Heavy Cream, 2 Cups

Green onions diced really thin, 6

Freshly ground salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Combine ingredients in a medium pot and reduce for at least 25 minutes.  I reduced this sauce for one hour…but that is because I had a lot of time while I was cooking everything else.  It starts out very watery and right before it’s done, it thickens to a magnificent consistency.  It was so thick and the concentration of the flavors together was perfect.

I would pour this over any beef, pork or chicken.  Soooo simple…yet so incredible.

This amazing recipe is the Marsala Reduction that I made to go over the pork dish.

I will be totally honest here and tell you that the reason I made the reduction was because often

the pork can be dry and I thought it would be a good addition to the meat. Fortunately the pork wasn’t dry at all, in fact it was extremely moist.

In the mad dash of getting everyone seated and served for our Sunday night dinner, I forgot to get one single picture.

Not one shot of the finished amazing pork on the plate…nothing.  But sometimes…that is just how it happens.

What I want to share with you today, is how I made the sauce.  It was amazing…no better than amazing….incredible…I just

can’t think of the words to describe how awesome it tasted.

Stir together

We found this mustard at Marshall’s Clothing Store…of all places.

Bought just one jar and went back the next day for five more.

Now we order it on line…it is so good.

Just about done

The flavors are getting concentrated and beginning to thicken. Four cups…two of the wine and

two of the heavy cream have cooked down into about one cup…but it is a cup of pure gold.

The finished sauce…packed full of wonderful flavor…it is outstanding!

I felt so bad that I didn’t get one final picture of this golden sauce drizzled over the pork…so you unfortunately will have to take my word for how beautiful the dish looked…and it tasted nothing less than divine.
