Classic Cream Sauce

Ingredients:

This gives approx 2,5 dl finished sauce

  • 0,5 yellow triple, sliced
  • 0,5 red apple, in pieces
  • a few sprigs of thyme
  • butter, for frying
  • 2 cups veal stock (see the lesson on funds and broth)
  • 2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoons blackcurrant jelly
  • 1 tsp anjovisspad
  • a pinch of salt
  • ev. 1-2 tsk maizena + 1-2 teaspoon water
  • a dollop of butter, to shine with

Do this:

  1. Fry onion and apple and thyme in a little butter on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes to get the sweetness in both onion and apple.
  2. When you have a nice color of onion and apple, add the veal stock. Reduce and cook until half is left.
  3. Add cream and cook to a fine consistency, just a few minutes.
  4. Taste with jelly and anchovy spatula to get a nice umami taste.
  5. Skip, but taste yourself.
  6. Strain your cream sauce and make sure to squeeze the onion and apple through the strainer so you get the sweetness and acidity in the sauce.
  7. If you think the sauce is too thin, ride it with the cornstarch mixed with water.
  8. Whisk, bring to the boil and feel the texture. Add a little more if you want a thicker sauce.
  9. Just before serving, blanch the sauce by adding a dollop of butter to further enhance the taste.
