Ingredients

  • 8 cups heavy cream 8 cups chicken stock 3 large eggs Coarse salt and freshly ground white pepper

Directions

Combine cream and chicken stock in a large saucepan, bring to a boil over medium-high heat and immediately reduce to a simmer. Let simmer until liquid has reduced to 4 cups.

Working in batches, transfer cream mixture to the jar of a blender. Start by blending on low speed and increasing to medium speed. Add eggs and blend. Season with salt and pepper. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve set over a bowl; discard any solids. Let cool to room temperature.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/04/2008   Scratch that... I thought this was the porkloin spicy green sauce. My bad!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/04/2008   This recipe is a favorite in my house and with friends now. I made several batches and froze them to use in dishes. The flavor is to die for and goes with many dishes! Try it on fajitas, any pasta, soups, you catch my drift.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/22/2008   Actually not so much "thick" as "rich". Martha commented on how what a light texture the reduction was.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/22/2008   Yes, that's correct. On the show it was reduced to just about that - very thick. It's used sparsely between each of the 12 layers.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/20/2008   Has anyone tried this? I'm wondering if the direction to reduce 16 cups to 4 cups is correct. Please advise. Thanks
