Campanile tip:
Add a cup of chicken stock to the pan for a stronger-tasting sauce.
Leon Daudet, in "Paris Vecu", describes a famous chef at work: "You should have seen Frederic with his lorgnette and greying sideburns, quite serious and imperturbable, cutting up his fat little duck, trussing it and flambeing it, then throwing it into the saucepan and preparing the sauce, seasoning it in the same way as Claude Monet painted, with care and precision, bringing out all the different aspects of the taste."
