Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onion.
- Trim the radishes and cut them in half.
- Cut the butter into small cubes for easier melting.
- Chop the fresh tarragon leaves.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the chopped onions and cook until they are softened and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the halved radishes to the saucepan with the onions.
- Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Sauté the radishes and onions together for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the white wine and increase the heat to medium-high.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 7-10 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped tarragon, allowing the flavors to meld for about 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat to very low and start adding the butter a few pieces at a time, whisking constantly to create a smooth, creamy sauce. Do not allow the sauce to boil.
- Continue whisking in the butter until all pieces have been incorporated.
- Stir in the lemon juice to add a touch of acidity and brightness to the sauce.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to balance the flavors.
- Arrange the radishes on a serving dish and spoon the tarragon beurre blanc over the top. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Select fresh, crisp radishes for the best texture and flavor.
- Finely dice the onion to ensure it cooks evenly and blends smoothly into the sauce.
- Use a good quality white wine for the beurre blanc to enhance the overall taste of the dish.
- Add the butter gradually while stirring constantly to achieve a smooth, emulsified sauce.
- Incorporate the tarragon at the end to preserve its fresh, aromatic flavor.
