Best 6 Kerrys Carrot Red Wine Reduction Recipes

RED WINE REDUCTION STEAK SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat; cook and stir the yellow and red onion, shallots, garlic, tomato, carrots, and mushrooms until the onions are translucent and the carrots have softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour in the beef broth and 1 cup of Merlot, and bring to a boil, scraping and dissolving any browned bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat, and simmer until the vegetables are very soft and the pan juices have reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
• Strain out and discard the vegetables from the sauce. Return the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, stir in 1/4 cup of Merlot wine, and reduce heat. Simmer the sauce until it is reduced to 1/4 of its original volume, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.

GARLIC BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
• Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
• Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

RED-WINE REDUCTION

Steps:

• Sauté onion, celery, carrots, and garlic in oil in a 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat, stirring, until golden, about 10 minutes. Add wines and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is reduced to 1 quart, about 1 hour.
• Pour through a sieve into a saucepan and simmer until reduced to 2 cups. Reheat reduction and season with salt and pepper before using.

RED WINE GRAVY

Steps:

• In a medium or large saucepan, add the oil and sauté the onion over medium heat for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the red wine, Worcestershire sauce and dried thyme. Simmer for another couple of minutes.
• Now stir in the vegetable stock and the cornstarch mixture.
• Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring for 10 to 12 minutes, until the gravy has thickened and coats the stirring spoon well. Add a little more water or stock if the gravy gets too thick.

RED WINE AND MAPLE-GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook shallots, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes.
• Add chili powder, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until chili powder is very fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add carrots, maple syrup, and wine and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Add vinegar and boil, uncovered, until liquid is reduced to a glaze, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in dill.

CARROT REDUCTION

Steps:

• Simmer the juice until it has reduced by 1/2. Some brands (or homemade) will separate. Just whisk vigorously to re-combine.
• Add the rest of the ingredients. Heat and whisk to combine, simmering to desired viscosity.
