Red Pepper Reduction
This reduction, with its intense red pepper flavor,
is a great sauce for chicken and fish.
Makes about ¼ cup
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 shallot, about ½ ounce
12 ounces red pepper juice, [about 2
pounds (4 medium peppers) juiced on
speed 3]
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into
small cubes (optional)
1. Put the olive oil in a small saucepan and place
over medium heat. Add the shallot and sweat
until soft, about 2 minutes.
2. Add the pepper juice and bring to a simmer.
Allow the juice to simmer until reduced to about
¼ cup, 30 to 40 minutes. For a sauce with more
body, whisk in the butter if using right before
serving.*
* Note: Although thin, this sauce is very flavor-
ful and stands very well on its own. However, if
you prefer a thicker sauce without butter, make
a slurry with one tablespoon of cornstarch mixed
with water and whisk into the sauce, a little at a
time, as it simmers until the desired consistency
is achieved.
