ingredients

1 large head broccoli, broken into florets
1 small shallot, finely chopped
2 tablespoons white wine
1 tablespoon lemon juice, divided
¹⁄₄ cup unsalted butter, cold, cut into small pieces
salt
white pepper

directions

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