Sauce Recipes?

Question

Anyone have any suggestions for a tasty sauce to put over a plate of mixed vegetables?

Answer 1

Hollandaise Sauce
"This creamy, slightly tart sauce is made from an emulsion of egg yolks, butter, and lemon juice cooked over gentle heat. The secret is to keep the heat LOW so that the egg yolks don't curdle, and to whisk constantly."
4 servings
PREP TIME 5 Min
COOK TIME 10 Min
READY IN 15 Min
INGREDIENTS
4 egg yolks
3 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 pinch ground white pepper
1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 cup butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS
Fill the bottom of a double boiler part-way with water. Make sure that water does not touch the top pan. Bring water to a gentle simmer. In the top of the double boiler, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, white pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon water.
Add the melted butter to egg yolk mixture 1 or 2 tablespoons at a time while whisking yolks constantly. If hollandaise begins to get too thick, add a teaspoon or two of hot water. Continue whisking until all butter is incorporated. Whisk in salt, then remove from heat. Place a lid on pan to keep sauce warm until ready to serve.

The perfect accompniment to asparagus or other veggies

Answer 2

I like a mix of 1/2 sechzuen sauce and 1/2 Paul Newman's Balsamic Vinigrette. Yum!! You can also take 2 tblsp butter, melt it over med heat, throw in 2 tblsp flour. Mix. Add 1 cup milk, salt and pepper to taste, 2 tsp fresh dill and 1/2 clove garlic. Not the healthiest but good!!

Answer 3

Try 3/4 cup sour cream, 1 cup of milk, 1 tsp. tarragon, salt and pepper to taste. Combine all of these ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle over hot veggies. You can heat this sauce up on low if you like. Make sure you are careful not to overdo it as the sour cream can "curdle." If you wnat something with a bit more kick...try using a store bought Greek or Italian dressing.
