A bean recipe for every taste:

‘Sauce a la venitienne’, Venetian sauce: a white wine sauce (such as the ‘Sauce allemande’) as a base, strained with a reduction of chopped shallots and tarragon in vinegar, whipped with green butter, garnished with chopped chervil and tarragon.

Put the shallots with the tarragon as well as the vinegar in a small saucepan and cook at low temperature by half. Strain the reduction through a fine-mesh sieve. Heat the reduction again in a saucepan and add the ‘Sauce allemande’ while stirring. Remove from heat, add the green butter piece by piece at low temperature. Bring to the table immediately.

When serving, garnish with chopped chervil and tarragon.

The green butter:

Blanch spinach and culinary herbs briefly (i.e. 1-2 min. ) in boiling hot water. Drain well, squeeze out water heartily. Mix the spinach and herbs with the butter in a mortar and grind finely with a pestle. Then spread it through a fine-meshed tamis, no fibers should remain in the butter mixture.

The ‘Sauce allemande’:

Place the shallots in a saucepan with the white wine, peppercorns and bouquet garni and cook the liquid over medium heat until two-thirds thick.

Add the poultry stock and the mushrooms and boil the liquid repeatedly by half.

Add the whipped cream and simmer the sauce until it thickens.
