reduction

Explanation:
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

As I wrote in my previous answer, "brown stock is a reduction sauce" (Recipe in my previous answer).

You can also "reduce broth" (or sauce, or stock) by cooking it until its quantity is, well, reduced. See reference below.

And, finally, there is such a thing as "broth reduction", which is used as a base for sauces/gravy:

"In fact, a canned broth won't work if you need a "broth reduction" -- when a recipe calls for simmering the broth until it reduces by half, for example." (2nd reference)
