Ingredients
Dabs
  • 4 dab fillets, or other type of flounder
  • 1 lemon sliced
  • lemon vinagrette
Beurre Blanc with Capers
  • 1 large shallot finely chopped
  • 8oz white wine
  • 1-2 oz white wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 stick (8Tbsp) cold butter cut up
  • 1-2 Tbsp capers
  • salt & pepper
Instructions
For the Dabs
  1. Put each fillet in a ziploc bag with a couple of slices of lemon and 2-3 tablespoons of vinaigrette.
  2. Submerge in cold water to squeeze out all the air, then place in the heated water for 30 minutes at 135 degrees.
For the Beurre Blanc
  1. Cook the shallot, wine and vinegar until the liquid is reduced to just 1-2 tablespoons. If you go too far, add in a tablespoon of water.
  2. Once it’s reduced add the tablespoon of cream.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, then whisk in the chilled butter pieces one at a time. Keep the butter moving so it emulsifies rather than just melting. [Take the pan off the heat if it’s getting too hot].
  4. Once all the butter is whisked into the sauce season with salt and pepper, and stir in the drained capers.
