Beurre Blanc Sauce (Easy & No-Fail)
Report
Beurre blanc sauce is a tangy, buttery emulsion that transforms any dish into something special - and this recipe is foolproof!
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter cut into 1-tablespoon pieces
- ¼ cup finely chopped shallots
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- kosher salt to taste
Instructions
- Cook the shallots. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the shallots, whisk for 30 seconds, then add the wine and vinegar and continue whisking until the liquid is almost completely reduced (about 2 tablespoons of liquid remaining).
- Make it creamy. Add the cream and salt and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to medium low, add the remaining butter a few pieces at a time, while whisking rapidly and continuously.
- Strain. Strain the buerre blanc sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to discard the shallot, pressing on top with a spoon to extract all the juices and flavor.
- Serve. Serve the beurre blanc sauce immediately while warm.

Notes
- ½ cup of sauce.
- This recipe makes about ½ cup of sauce.
- If you prefer a chunkier sauce, you can keep the shallots in the sauce and not strain it.
- Serve this sauce immediately. As soon as it starts to cool, beurre blanc thickens into a buttery paste. This also makes the sauce better served fresh rather than making it ahead of time.
- If you do happen to have leftovers and would like to store it in the fridge for a few days, you can do so. Just know that it will separate a bit and be thinner on reheating (though still delicious).
