Porcini. On rare steak. Does your sainted mother's recipe resemble this ? I note that it contains heavy cream, but that don't scare me.
It is true that many European meat sauces are made of butter, drippings, Worchestershire, wine, or herbs and run freely over the meat.
Nonetheless I have seen the lamentable atrocities I described committed on salsas, and under prolonged interrogation the perpetrators have confessed to Italian or French ancestry, or at least influence.
Nose twitches. Mouth waters. Ears perk up. Whining in throat.
