Deglaze

A cooking technique in which liquid (often wine or stock) is added to a hot pan, usually after it has been used to cook meat. The cook then scrapes up the browned bits of vegetables, meat, and juices in the bottom of the pan to create the base of a deeply flavored sauce. (This technique also makes clean-up a little easier.)
