Preparation

Step 1

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the shallots in the butter until lightly browned. Add the garlic and the morels. Cook until the mushrooms begin to "sweat."

Add the wine and continue cooking until reduced by about 75 percent. Add the beef broth and the fresh thyme. Boil until the broth is 50 percent reduced.

Stir in the additional two tablespoons of butter and season with salt and pepper.
