How does the sauce thicken?

Advertisement:

The mushroom sauce uses chicken stock and heavy whipping cream as the base. The reduction gently simmers, helping to evaporate the water from the ingredients. The milk solids and fat in the cream concentrate, creating a thicker consistency. This process allows you to control the texture without extra thickening agents like flour or cornstarch.
