Adaptions:
This is a versatile sauce and can take on a lot of flavours from other sauces, fats, or ingredients. For example:
- For a delicate Fish Sauce Emulsion: Instead of using water, use 100 ml of good quality fish stock. Finish the sauce with a squeeze of lemon and finely chopped parsley.
- For a Bacon Butter Emulsion: Roast off a pack of streaky bacon in the oven at 180°c for 20 minutes and render all the fat out of the bacon. Drain the fat and replace half the butter in the above recipe with bacon drippings. Chop up the crispy bacon pieces and sprinkle over your finished dish.
