Grapefruit Butter Sauce

Source of Recipe


From "Star Palate: Celebrity Cookbook for a Cure"






List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup sugar
  
• 1-1/2 cups fresh grapefruit juice
  
• 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  
• 1-1/2 Tbsp diced shallots
  
• 2 Tbsp heavy (whipping) cream
  
• 12 Tbsp (1-1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold, cut into pieces
  
• 1/2 cup seedless grapefruit segments
  






Instructions



1. Combine sugar, juice, vinegar and shallots in a small saucepan. Reduce over medium heat to 1/4 cup. Mixture will foam up while reducing, so watch closely. Pull off and return to heat as needed to prevent boiling over.
   
   
2. Add cream and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove from heat.
   
   
3. Gradually whisk in cold butter, piece by piece. Add grapefruit segments and stir gently to combine. Keep barely warm until ready to serve.
   
   Makes about 1/2 cup.
