    Have one and a half gills of finished demi-glace measured out. Warm and loosen only this portion following the reheating and serving directions in the linked Demi-glace recipe.

  2. Step 2

    Finely chop the six shallots. Put them in a saucepan with the half gill of tarragon vinegar and reduce over brisk heat until almost dry, taking care not to burn them.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in the prepared demi-glace portion and add the teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Mix well and boil for ten minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add the half ounce of fresh butter a little at a time, mixing briskly as it is added. Use the sauce hot.
