What is a sauce choron, you might think? Here you get the recipe for a true sauce bearnaise, which contains tomato puree, giving it a delicious piquant taste and color.
The key to making a good true sauce is temperatures.
Therefore, it is important that all the ingredients are at roughly the same temperatures when they are to be whisked together - this will make it easier for you to combine the sauce at the end. So make sure the egg yolks come out of the fridge at least 1 hour before, and that the butter is clarified in good time - preferably 30-45 minutes before the sauce is to be made.
The butter is clarified by heating it in a thick-bottomed saucepan over low heat. When it has melted, pour it into a new container (preferably a small jug) and discard the white sediment.
Essence
Start by removing your tarragon leaves from the stems and chop the leaves into small pieces.
Chop the shallots and boil them together with the stems from the fresh tarragon, the vinegar, the white wine, a little salt, and pepper.
Boil until there is just under half remaining.
Strain the essence through a fine sieve so that you only have the clear essence left.
Sauce
You can combine the sauce in three ways:- In a thick-bottomed saucepan on a stove.- Over a water bath.- In a mixer with a heating function.
We mixed the sauce in a thick-bottomed copper saucepan on an induction stove.
The stove should be on the lowest or the second lowest heat setting.
In addition to uniform temperatures, whisking, whisking, and whisking are also key words you must remember.
Start by frying the tomato puree in a pan until it browns a bit.
This gives a better taste.
Whisk the egg yolks together with the essence.
It is important to whisk vigorously.
You cannot continue the sauce-making process until the egg yolks and the essence begin to thicken slightly and foam.
Then you add a little butter at a time.
Start with a spoonful, and after a few spoonfuls, switch to pouring in a thin stream.
Continue until the sauce has the thickness you desire.
Add the chopped tarragon leaves, tomato puree, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to the sauce - and then it is ready to serve.
Remember that true sauces should be eaten immediately.

Notes
The sauce is a bit sweeter than a Sauce Bearnaise, so it is perfect for a good piece of pork.
