CLASSIC BEURRE BLANC: WHITE BUTTER SAUCE



Classic Beurre Blanc: White Butter Sauce image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     condiment

Time 35m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup champagne vinegar
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cubed
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons chopped chives

Steps:

  • In a heavy 2-quart saucepan, combine vinegar, wine, shallots, lemon, and bay leaves to make an infusion. Simmer over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes until the mixture is reduced to a wet paste, about 2 tablespoons. Add the cream and continue to simmer until reduced again to about 2 tablespoons. Cream is added to make the sauce more stable and less likely to separate.
  • Reduce the heat to low and remove the bay leaves. Whisk in the chunks of butter in small batches. The butter should melt without the sauce getting too hot, producing a creamy emulsified sauce. Do not let the sauce go over 130 degrees F, where it will separate. If the sauce starts to break, remove from heat, add 2 ice cubes and whisk until it cools down and comes back together. Season with salt and pepper, fold in the chives, and serve immediately. Keep covered in a warm place for a few hours, if needed.
  • Serve with fish or vegetables.

Categories     Broil     Quick & Easy     Snapper     Sherry     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 cup medium-dry Sherry
1 large shallot, minced (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons dry white wine or water
1 tablespoon Sherry vinegar (available at specialty foods shops and some supermarkets) or white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces
two 1/2-inch-thick red snapper fillets (about 10 ounces total), seasoned with salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan cook the Sherry, the shallot, the white wine, the vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste over moderately high heat until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, remove the pan from the heat, and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time, adding each new piece before the previous one has melted completely. (The sauce should not get hot enough to liquefy. It should be the consistency of thin hollandaise.)
  • On a foil-covered broiler pan broil the fillets under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 5 minutes, or until they just flake, divide them between 2 plates, and spoon the sauce over them.

CHEF JOHN'S BEURRE BLANC



Chef John's Beurre Blanc image

Although beurre blanc purists would object to the bit of cream in this classic sauce, it does help create a more stable base, enhances the flavor, and makes an even more beautiful color than when made without. Have all the ingredients measured and handy before starting as this sauce comes together rather quickly.

Time 18m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 teaspoons very finely minced shallots
4 ounces cold unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch cubes
salt to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Place wine, lemon juice, cream, shallots, and cream in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and let simmer until liquid is reduced by about 75%, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to the lowest setting and whisk in about 2 cubes of butter. Keep butter moving until it melts. When melted, add a few more cubes, whisking continuously so butter emulsifies into the wine/lemon juice mixture.
  • Continue to add butter, a few cubes at a time until all of it has been incorporated and the sauce has a thick, luxurious texture, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Taste for seasonings and add a pinch of salt and cayenne, if desired. Serve immediately.

POTATO-CRUSTED SNAPPER RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Potato-Crusted Snapper Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by Side Passion

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggs, beaten
1-1/2 cups mashed potato flakes
2 teaspoons dried thyme
4 red snapper fillets (6 ounces each)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Place eggs in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine potato flakes and thyme. Sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper. Dip in eggs and coat with potato mixture. In a large skillet, cook fillets in oil in batches over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

  • To ensure the potato crust is crispy, use a combination of russet potatoes and Yukon Gold potatoes. Russet potatoes provide a fluffy interior, while Yukon Gold potatoes add a creamy texture and help the crust hold together.
  • For a flavorful beurre blanc sauce, use a good quality white wine and unsalted butter. Reduce the wine until it is syrupy and then slowly whisk in the butter until the sauce is emulsified and creamy.
  • To prevent the snapper from overcooking, cook it over medium-high heat until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will prevent the fish from cooking evenly.
  • Serve the potato-crusted snapper immediately with the beurre blanc sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This potato-crusted snapper in beurre blanc sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The crispy potato crust and creamy beurre blanc sauce complement the delicate flavor of the snapper perfectly. This dish is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
