Recipe

LEMON BEURRE BLANC

(8 SERVINGS)
 

This butter sauce is the classic accompaniment to cooked fish dishes. Most French chefs tend to use unsalted (sweet) butter in cooking, then add salt to taste before serving.

 
    1/2 tablespoon white wine  
   
1/4 cup
white wine vinegar  
   
1 1/2 tablespoons
shallots diced fine  
   
2 tablespoons
heavy cream  
    1 lb. butter  
   
2 tablespoons
lemon juice  
   
3/4 teaspoon
salt  
   
1/4 teaspoon
white pepper  
         
 
1.  Combine shallots, wine and vinegar in a large sauce pan.
2.  Cook until liquid is almost totally evaporated.
3.  Add heavy cream.
4.  Whisk in butter (one piece at a time)
    (do not heat above 136º or sauce will break)
5.  Strain.  Add lemon juice, salt and pepper.
6.  Hold for service at 120-130º.
