Ingredients
  

  • 1 Large cap Portobello Mushroom or 4 Baby Bellos - stems and ribs removed and finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp Toasted Sesame or Almond oil
  • 1 Tbsp Liquid Smoke (Wright's is salt free)
  • 1 tsp Molasses
  • 2 Tbsp Low Sodium Beef Stock
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 clove garlic - minced

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan or skillet, saute the mushrooms and garlic in the oil over medium high heat for 4 minutes, watch to make sure you don't burn the garlic.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add the rest of the ingredients. Bring to a simmer.
  • Allow the mixture to simmer for 8 minutes then reduce heat to low.
  • With a slotted spoon, remove the mushrooms and garlic. Place them into a strainer or cheesecloth, where you can press or squeeze as much juice as possible from the mushrooms and garlic back into the sauce.
  • Increase the heat to medium and allow the sauce to reduce by 1/4 (about another 6 minutes).
  • Store the sauce in a sealable jar or container and refrigerate.
