Basic Sage And Brown Butter Sauce Recipe

This is one of the most basic sauces you can master in the kitchen. Simply browning butter gives you a nutty flavor that is excellent over a flaky white fish or a fresh pasta dish. Sage from the garden or the grocery store is ideal for giving this sauce its earthy finish.
