About

One of my favorite things about this recipe is the combination of hot and cold elements. The contrast offers a delicious shock to my taste buds. The hot component intensifies the cold part and vice versa. For a sweet version of beurre blanc, a warm French butter sauce, I use orange juice, which pairs beautifully with the blackberry ice cream.
