    How to Make Homemade Mushroom Sauce?<\/h2>\n

    1. Clean the mushrooms by trimming off the dirty ends of the stems, then rinse them quickly, rubbing them gently in lemon water.<\/p>\n

    2. Let the mushrooms drain, then slice them.<\/p>\n

    3. Dissolve the beef bouillon cube in hot water.<\/p>\n

    4. Finely chop the onion and garlic.<\/p>\n

    5. In a saut\u00e9 pan, cook the onion and garlic in olive oil or butter over medium heat.<\/p>\n

    6. When the onion becomes translucent, add the sliced mushrooms and stir. <\/p>\n

    \"how<\/p>\n

    7. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, then deglaze with the beef broth and veal stock.<\/p>\n

    8. Continue cooking until only a small amount of liquid remains.<\/p>\n

    At this stage, you can stop the cooking and finish the recipe just before serving to prevent the sauce from thickening too much.<\/p>\n

    9. Add the cream, grated cheese, and dried herbs.<\/p>\n

    10. Season with pepper to taste and add salt if needed (the bouillon cube is already quite salty).<\/p>\n

    11. Stir and let the sauce reduce until it reaches the desired consistency.<\/p>\n

    12. Serve immediately. <\/p>\n

    Can You Make Creamy Mushroom Sauce Ahead of Time?<\/h2>\n

    You can make this sauce ahead of time by preparing it up to step 8, then storing it in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. When you are ready to use it, simply finish the remaining steps of the recipe just before serving.<\/p>\n
