History of Beurre Blanc:
The story of its origin is one of serendipity. A French chef in western France forgot to use eggs when making a Béarnaise sauce for a fish dish he was serving. Uncounted culinary delights have been discovered this way.
Recipe Directions:
Combine the white wine, white wine vinegar, salt, white pepper, cream and shallot in a small saucepan. Reduce the mixture until approximately 2 tbsps of the liquid remains. If more than 2 tbsps of the liquid remain, the resulting sauce will be too thin. For a thicker sauce, reduce the mixture to less than 2 tbsps. Cut the butter into cubes approximately 1 oz in weight. Over low heat, whisk in the butter, a few pieces at a time. Use the chilled butter to keep the sauce between 100ºF and 120ºF. Once all the butter has been added, remove the saucepan from the heat. Strain (optional) through a sieve and keep the temperature of the sauce between 100ºF and 130ºF.
