📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the shallot and white wine to a small saucepan and bring up to a boil. Simmer until the liquid has reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Remove the pan from the heat and begin whisking in the butter, one piece at a time, being sure not to add a new piece of butter until the first one has been fully incorporated.

2
If the pan gets too cool to melt the butter, you can turn the heat on to low every so often to gently warm it back up. Be careful not to let the sauce boil to get too hot as it can cause the sauce to break.

3
Once all the butter has been incorporated, taste the sauce and season it with salt and white pepper. Pour the sauce through a fine mesh strainer, pressing on the shallots to extract every last bit. Straining the sauce may be skipped for a more rustic presentation.
