Lemon-cream sauce

4 servings

30 minutes

Lemon cream sauce is an exquisite gift of Italian cuisine, harmoniously blending the freshness of citrus with the velvety tenderness of butter. Its origins are rooted in Mediterranean gastronomy traditions, where lemon is valued for its ability to enliven flavors. This sauce has a bright, refreshing taste with a slight tang that perfectly complements desserts, pastries, and even savory dishes. It can be served warm as a delicate cream or chilled as a delightful addition to ice cream or fruits. Prepared in a water bath, it acquires a silky texture that caresses the palate and leaves a refined aftertaste. Simple to make yet elegant in presentation — it will be the perfect finishing touch to any treat.
