1/4 ts Saffron threads, crumbled 3 tb Heavy cream
2 tb Shallot, minced 14 tb Unsalted butter, cold, cut i
2 tb White wine vinegar -to 14 pieces
3 tb Dry white wine

In a small heavy saucepan, combine the saffron, shallot, vinegar, and wine.

cream and simmer the mixture, whisking occasionally, until the liquid is
reduced to 2 Tablespoons.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low, and whisk in
the butter, 1 piece at a time, but overlapping slightly to keep the sauce

is whisked in.

and/or seafoods. Makes about 1 cup.
