  1. For the sauce, combine the Holland House® Marsala Cooking Wine, shallot, garlic, and thyme in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce liquid to about 2 Tbsp. Add the mushroom stock, cremini mushrooms, veal demi-glace, and brown sugar. Stir to combine and reduce to ½ cup. Strain and reserve.
