Beurre Blanc Sauce 

A Beurre blanc sauce is a classic French sauce that's rich, smooth and has a nice tangy flavor. It's made by simmering white wine, vinegar, and shallots, then whisking in cold butter until it comes together into a creamy sauce. The sauce is often served with fish or seafood, where its buttery texture and subtle acidity really shine. You can also tweak it with herbs, citrus, or even a splash of cream for extra flavor and variety.
