How to Make Cream Of Garlic Sauce With Horseradish

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add 6 cloves of garlic, minced, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened.
  2. Pour in 1/4 cup dry vermouth and cover the saucepan. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the garlic is very soft and the liquid has almost completely evaporated.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. Set aside.
  4. Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the garlic mixture in the saucepan. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of hot chicken or vegetable bouillon, ensuring the sauce remains smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish (or more, to taste), 1 large egg yolk, and 1/4 cup heavy cream.
  8. Temper the egg yolk mixture by slowly whisking in about 1/2 of the hot garlic sauce. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
  9. Gently pour the tempered egg yolk mixture into the remaining garlic sauce in the saucepan, whisking constantly.
  10. Return the saucepan to low heat and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring continuously. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened. Do not boil.
  11. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add more horseradish or cream if desired. Stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs (such as chives or parsley) just before serving.
  12. Pour into a warmed sauceboat and serve immediately.
