About Madeira jus

Madeira jus is a rich, flavorful sauce originating from European cuisine, particularly French culinary traditions, with a touch of inspiration from Madeira Island in Portugal. It’s crafted by reducing Madeira wine, a fortified wine known for its deep, fruity undertones, alongside beef or veal stock, aromatics like shallots, and sometimes herbs such as thyme. The result is a glossy, savory accompaniment often served with meats like steak, lamb, or venison. Nutritionally, Madeira jus is low in fat but can be high in sodium depending on the stock and seasoning used. It contains antioxidants from the wine, but due to its alcohol base, it's best enjoyed in moderation. While not a significant source of vitamins or protein, it enhances meals with its robust flavor, adding satisfaction to smaller, balanced portions. For a healthier version, opt for reduced-sodium stock and limit added butter.
