Madeira sauce is a rich, brown sauce originating from French cuisine, named after Madeira wine, a fortified wine from Portugal's Madeira Islands. The sauce is typically prepared by deglazing a pan with Madeira wine, then combining it with reduced beef or veal stock, butter, and aromatics like shallots, garlic, or herbs. Cream may be added for a silkier texture in some variations. Its flavor is deep, savory, and slightly sweet, making it a popular complement to meats like steak or poultry. From a nutrition standpoint, Madeira sauce is high in flavor but can be calorie-dense due to butter and the reduced stock. It is low in carbohydrates and sugar, but sodium levels can be significant depending on the stock used. While the wine adds antioxidants, portions should be moderate to keep calorie and fat intake balanced as part of a healthy diet.
