NOTE:
To taste
Leftover sauce can be saved in the refrigerator or
freezer and re-heated. When re-heated, it won’t have the airiness of the fresh sauce, but will still taste delicious!
About the Recipe: This recipe is courtesy of my husband, Tim, who is an Executive Chef. This is an incredibly versatile sauce—so far, we’ve served it with fish, chicken, pork, green beans & roasted potatoes... Depending on the stock you use, this can be made vegan.
