This rich, velvety, ivory-colored sauce has a deep chicken flavor that perfectly complements poached, baked, or roasted chicken. It's a time-honored French classic, made by adding cream and, if you like, a hint of mushroom essence to a velouté sauce.
In a medium saucepan, combine the velouté sauce, diluted Fond de Poulet Gold®, and 1/2 cup of the cream. Bring the mixture to a rapid simmer over medium heat and cook until it is reduced by 2/3, to about 1 1/2 cups.
Whisk in the remaining cream, the Essence de Champignon Gold® (if using), and the butter and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring, for another minute or two, until the mushroom essence and the butter have dissolved. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
