Lemon Caper Butter Sauce

[hanapualani]

This is my first line of defense for delicious dining. I just made this tonight and followed the recipe. It was extremely lemony.. i don't know why this was, but i won't use so much next time.

This, as a sauce for pizza. Over this parmesan and olives. The olives are stuffed with garlic.

Then real mozzarella and basil leaves. Topped with cherry tomatoes

[BrainDeadGizmo]

is this supposed to be REALLY lemony? i reduced the 1/3 and that was pretty sour. On another try i reduced it even slithly further, still sour. On my last try, i did the 1/3 reduction but i added more capers and a little bit of the bryne, it helped but still to sour for fish.

Nothing about amounts/yield is mentioned. . . that would help especially if we are serving a group. Duh.

Love this simple to make, zesty sauce. Any other sauces like this (for beginners) that you can recommend?

[toferlife]

too lemony for my taste

[toferlife]

[luckybuttdog]

Thanks for explaining what I was doing wrong. No more separated butter.

[gaelicscots]

@rainbirdvalley Are Australians allowed to have kids ?

[rydag11]

@gaelicscots Are morons?

[rainbirdvalley]

@gaelicscots no I stole them

[deancoysh]

should not add the butter last m8 thats not right

[Ranger099]

@deancoysh Of course adding butter at the end is right. It creates the emulsion that you won't get if you add it too early or with too high heat.

[amor2abell]

Great will try tonight

Is there any simpler ingredient similar to capers?

[fedaikn]

what is the chopped herb you add on top of the butter? i don't understand what you call it

[mikeydaweasel]

[ARom101]

if you gave people a chance you'd realize that english is not the person's first language. He went to school in Singapore. I'd like to see you write Malay.
