Preparation
- Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine chardonnay, shallot, garlic and bay leaf. Place over medium heat, and boil until reduced by half. Add the cream, and continue to reduce until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove pan from heat, discard bay leaf, and allow to cool.
- Step 2
Transfer mixture to a blender, and add fresh basil. Puree until smooth.
- Step 3
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Return sauce to pan, and place over low heat. Add butter, stir until melted, and remove from heat. Serve warm.
