Lemon Butter Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 pinch white pepper
1/2 cup butter, cut into 8 pieces

Preparation

Boil down the lemon juice with the salt and pepper until it has reduced to 1 tablespoon.
Remove from heat and immediately beat in 2 pieces of chilled butter.
Set over very low heat and beat in the rest of the butter, a piece at a time, to make a thick, creamy sauce.
If made ahead of time, just before serving beat in hot water or vegetable stock a few dribbles at a time to reheat.
