White Wine Reduction
Pour a bottle of White Wine into a small saucepan – we used Mosby Pinot Grigio
Add:
1 Tablespoon Peppercorns
2 sprigs fresh Thyme
1 Shallot, minced
Simmer over low heat for 1 1/2 hours until reduced to 1 cup.
Strain.
At this point, the reduction can be refrigerated. It’s great for salad dressing, or to drizzle over fish just as is.

Can you come to my house and make dinner? Looks great
Okay, you can make me this, anytime!!! Holy cow (or maybe I should say “holy pig”) it looks good! 🙂
What an incredible meal, the white wine sauce sounds wonderful!
This is just the kind of meal we love – simple, quick and totally elegant. My mum used to make sour cream mashed potatoes with a dash of nutmeg (something she learned at Williamsburg). I think even the nutmeg might work with this!
