Cuisine: French
Calories: 469

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 dl white wine
  • 1 tbs white wine vinegar
  • 2 tbs banana shallots finely chopped
  • 250 g butter room temperature in cubes
  • 2 tbs presset sitron
  • 1 tbs squeezed lemon optional
  • 1 tbs trout roe optional
  • 2 tbs chives

Method
 

  1. Reduce white wine, vinegar and onion until there is about 3 tbs of liquid
  2. Whisk down butter, a little at a time, making sure that the sauce does not boil when you whip down the butter, I try to lie down around 90 degrees.
  3. Taste with salt and add any other goodies you want to have in the sauce (roe and chives are good)

Notes

Tips: Sausen emulgerer best ved konstant, lav varme — rør hele tiden og fjern panna fra varmen om nødvendig. Tilsett iskaldt smør i terninger litt om gangen, ikke alt på en gang.
Oppbevaring: Beurre blanc lages rett før servering og kan ikke oppbevares — sausen skiller seg lett ved avkjøling eller oppvarming.
FAQ: Klassisk til fiskeretter, men passer like godt til hummer, kamskjell, asparges eller kokte grønnsaker som trenger et elegant løft.
