Ark of Taste Product - Whey Butter

Producer - Quickes Farm

Frances use the traditional farmhouse butter here to create an indulgent mayonnaise, enriched by anchovies and capers. 

Method:

– Combine the shallot, garlic and wine in a small pan and bring the mixture to the boil. Continue to heat until the liquid has reduced by half.

– Transfer the mixture to a blender and combine with the egg yolk, capers, anchovies (if using) and mustard.

– Blend to a smooth paste.

– With the motor still running, slowly add the butter to form an smooth emulsion.

– Fold in the chopped parsley.
