Bigarade sauce
Classic French sauce
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bigarade sauce is an orange sauce based on the gastrique, sugar caramelized with white vinegar.[1] The name comes from the bigarade orange, which is nowadays mainly replaced by sweet oranges.[2]
The recipe initially contained equal parts of lemon juice and orange juice with zests from these same fruits, but nowadays, only the orange juice and zests are used.[2]
It's most well known use is in the French dish duck à l'orange.[1]
