    Preparation Steps

    1

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the flour to create a smooth roux.

    2

    Gradually pour in the heavy cream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

    3

    Add the salt, white pepper, and lemon juice. Simmer over low heat for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.

    4

    Finely chop the fresh chives and stir them into the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    5

    Serve the sauce hot with fish, poultry, or fresh vegetables.
