FAQ
- What is a butter emulsion?
- A butter emulsion sauce is built by whisking cold butter into a warm liquid a piece at a time so the milk solids and water hold the fat in suspension, producing a sauce like beurre blanc or beurre monte. It stays glossy and pourable only as long as that emulsion holds, which is why it's made close to serving. The 55 recipes here are cited to their published sources; the ratio bar on each recipe page shows the measured liquids.
- How long does butter emulsion keep?
- Most oil-acid dressings keep 3–5 days refrigerated in a sealed jar; egg emulsions are shorter (1–2 days). Always follow the source technique and your local food-safety judgment. We print ratios, not shelf-life claims.
- What cut or form of ingredients should I buy?
- Buy the form named on the recipe (e.g. Dijon vs whole-grain mustard). Jar labels use short pour names; the editorial page lists full pantry names. When in doubt, match the cited source.
