This white wine morel sauce is packed with flavors from morels and has a wonderful combined taste of white wine, shallots, and chicken broth. The sauce goes well with pasta, rice, and chicken dishes.
You can also take a look at the classic morel mushroom sauce: It is more simple and has fewer ingredients, but is also very popular for its clean and rich taste of morels. The third, and also super delicious sauce that I have developed is the morel mushroom sauce made with red wine. It is based on beef broth and red wine and goes very well with a steak or meat in general.
The sauce can be made from both fresh or dried morels. If you choose to use dried morels, keep in mind that they need to rehydrate for about 30 minutes before they are ready to be used.
