INGREDIENTS (for 3 servings):
- 1 tablespoon butter

- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups white wine, divided
- ground white pepper to taste
- 3/4 cup heavy cream at room temperature

PREPARATION:
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir the shallots until they become translucent and tender; stir in garlic and cook until tender and aromatic.
Stir in 1 cup white wine, increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Once it boils, add the remaining 1/2 cup wine. Boil for 10 minutes then reduce heat to medium-low. Season with white pepper to taste.
