Vegan Béarnaise Sauce with Aquafaba

25 min 4 servings Medio
Béarnaise sauce is a classic French sauce known for its rich, buttery flavour and aromatic tarragon vinegar infusion. This vegan version swaps out the traditional eggs and butter for aquafaba and vegan butter, creating a creamy texture without compromising on taste. Perfect for those following a plant-based diet, this sauce brings the elegance of a French bistro to your home kitchen. The secret to this vegan Béarnaise sauce is aquafaba, the liquid from canned chickpeas. It acts as an excellent egg substitute, providing the necessary emulsion to mimic the classic sauce's smoothness. Whether you're new to vegan cooking or a seasoned plant-based chef, this recipe is designed to impress.

Instrucciones

1

Prepare the vinegar reduction

In a small saucepan, combine white wine vinegar and shallots. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and reduce to half, about 5 minutes.

Consejo del chef: Ensure the shallots are finely chopped for a smooth sauce.

2

Strain the reduction

Strain the vinegar reduction into a heatproof bowl to remove the shallots, leaving a clear, flavoured liquid.

Consejo del chef: A fine mesh strainer works best for this step.

3

Whisk the aquafaba

In a separate bowl, whisk aquafaba until slightly frothy, about 1 minute.

Consejo del chef: Use a hand whisk or electric mixer for better aeration.

4

Combine the ingredients

Gradually whisk the vinegar reduction into the aquafaba, followed by the melted vegan butter, until well combined.

Consejo del chef: Add the butter slowly to maintain the emulsion.

5

Season the sauce

Stir in chopped tarragon, salt, and white pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Consejo del chef: Fresh tarragon gives the best flavour, but dried can be used in a pinch.

6

Finish and serve

Heat the sauce gently over a double boiler if needed, whisking constantly until thickened. Serve immediately.

Consejo del chef: Avoid overheating to prevent separation.
