Method

Prep the shallots

Peel the Shallots, trim away the ends, and mince them very finely so they almost melt into the sauce. Cut the Unsalted Butter into small cubes and keep it very cold until you need it.

Reduce the base

Combine the minced shallots, Dry White Wine, and White Wine Vinegar in a small saucepan. Bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then cook until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons and looks slightly syrupy, 8 minutes or so, stirring now and then.

Whisk in butter

Take the pan off the heat and whisk in the cold butter cubes a few at a time, waiting for each addition to melt in before adding more. Keep whisking until the sauce turns pale, glossy, and lightly thickened, then finish by seasoning with Sea Salt and White Pepper to taste.
