These earthy morsels are cooked with finely chopped shallots or onions and minced garlic, infusing the sauce with a depth of flavor. A splash of white wine or brandy is often added, lending a subtle acidity that brightens the sauce. The liquid is reduced, concentrating the flavors, before heavy cream is stirred in, creating a luxuriously smooth and rich sauce. Fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, are added for a burst of color and freshness.
