A French inspired Creamy Tarragon Sauce that has the subtle flavor of anise. This rich creamy sauce pairs well with poultry, fish or vegetables for a deliciously aromatic dish.
Ingredients
3 tablespoons butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 tablespoon honey
2 freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 bunch tarragon
1 cup heavy cream
salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
In a saucepan set over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and add the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, do not brown. Add the wine and cook for 30 seconds to burn off the alcohol; then add the vegetable broth, bring to a boil and reduce by half.
Adjust the heat to medium and stir in the cream, honey, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Simmer for 5-8 minutes or until thickened slightly. Can add flour to thicken as well.
Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining butter and the chopped tarragon. Transfer the sauce to a pitcher or small dish.
