Method:
  1. Melt 50g of the butter in a pan over medium heat
  2. Add wine and simmer uncovered until reduced by half. Stir in lemon juice and zest
  3. Reduce heat to low. While whisking constantly, add the remaining butter 1 to 2 cubes at a time until all the butter has been incorporated and sauce has thickened. Stir through chives and season with salt. Serve immediately over fish, chicken or steamed vegetables
Tips & Hints:
  • Always use low heat while incorporating the butter. Avoid a hard boil to ensure the sauce doesn’t split.
  • Use any green herbs you have on hand, such as parsley or chervil.
