Ingredients

  • ¼ cup finely diced dried apricots

  • ¼ cup brandy
  • cup port wine
  • 1 cup demiglace or 2 ½ cups veal stock

Instructions

  • Combine apricots, raisins, and brandy in a cold sauce-pot.
  • Place over medium heat and simmer until reduced by half. Be careful to do this slowly, or brandy will ignite.
