In this video I’m revisiting the classic French Bordelaise sauce—but this time, it’s completely vegetarian (plant based) and still packed with deep, rich flavor.

Excellent – really appreciate a vegetarian recipe. I don't have to adapt. Yay! Looks delicious.
Très bonne idée
I'm a professional cook who has a vegetarian girlfriend, and I've found the two best ingredients for producing meat-like flavor without meat for sauces or stews or whatever are (1) dried mushrooms, as here, and (2) Marmite, a spread made from yeast. So much so that I often use them now to enhance jus, demi-glaces, fonds de veau and the like with meat.
Beautiful! I will attempt
I'heard you many times saying careful no colouration but never explaining why. I love colouration and the enhanced taste it is bringing. What could be the reason to not want it? Thumb up for this dish nevertheless!
Can hardly understand his accent plus he speaks too fast like an express train l gave up watching this video.
My friend, that's steam, not smoke… It that was smoke, dish was totally ruined(and so was the pan) 😂😂😂
People are being oddly rude here over the fact that his first language is not English 🫠
Really cool!
Wow
Does the butter not make this a plant based recipe?
Some people are quite silly! Just watch, he could be speaking French and you will the recipe and technique! I do not know French but can follow along.
