What is Madeira Sauce?
Madeira sauce is a rich peppery sauce which is traditionally made with Madeira wine and served with meats like roast beef and chicken. The sauce is a bit complex, and it can take a long time to make Madeira in the traditional way, but the time investment is worth the flavor. For people who do not want to make their own Madeira sauce, the sauce is sometimes available at markets, especially during the holiday season, when people want to use it with dishes like roast goose and lamb.
