Atkins Bread Recipes

Ingredients:

1 large broccoli head, broken into florets
1 small shallot, finely chopped
2 tbsp white wine
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 stick cold unsalted butter - (2 oz), cut small pieces
Salt, to taste
Freshly-ground white pepper, to taste
Additional lenon juice, to taste

Instructions:

Cook florets in a large pot of lightly salted water 5 to 7 minutes, until
tender. Drain; return to pot to keep warm while you prepare sauce.

Place shallots, wine and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small saucepan over
medium heat. Simmer until reduced to 1 tablespoon. Reduce heat to very
low; stir in a few small pieces of butter, swirling with a wire whisk until
mostly melted. Gradually add the remaining butter, whisking constantly
until sauce is smooth. Season with salt, white pepper and remaining lemon
juice to taste. Do not allow sauce to boil. Pour sauce over broccoli.

Comments: White butter sauce, or "beurre blanc", is a simple butter
emulsion, made by whisking pieces of butter into a sauce gradually.
Mustard, chopped herbs or citrus rind may be added to vary its flavor.
