• 1/4 1/4 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/8 1/8 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 1/4 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 2 2 tablespoons dry vermouth, dry red or white wine, or dry sherry
• 2 2 2 tablespoons quinoa flour OR Carbalose flour
• 2 2 2 teaspoons beef stock paste OR granules
• 1 1/2 1 1/2 1/2 cups water
• 1 1 1 cup heavy cream
• to ground pepper to taste
• to add the quinoa or Carbalose flour - stir to combine well with the fat left in the pan, and let cook til it's thickened and just a bit browned. This doesn't take long so watch it carefully.
• to to to to to the pan, stir to combine; add the beef stock paste and stir to dissolve. Add the water and Worcestershire sauce. Raise heat a bit and bring to a simmer. Add the garlic and onion powders at this point too.
• 1/2, to to reduce by about 1/2, then add the cup of heavy cream and bring back to a simmer. At this point, simmer til it thickens up, taste and adjust seasonings, continue to simmer, stirring every few minutes, til it's as thick as you'd like.
• Serve over chicken-fried steak, meatloaf, pork chops, or meatballs. Fauxtaters, faux rice, or quinoa are a good base for this sauce too!
• 1 1/2 could use 1 1/2 cups of beef stock in place of the paste/granules/water combo
