Best & Easiest Sauce Ever

This sauce would be good on fish, vegetables like green beans, steaks, and what I used it on--lomo fino de chancho--aka tenderloin of pork. I found this in Julia Child's book, My Life in France, and it takes less than 5 minutes to make.

Boil 1/4 vinegar along with 1/8 t. pepper and salt until reduced to 1/2 tablespoon.
Remove from heat and whisk in 2 T. butter. Keep whisking until you've whisked in about 3/4 to 1 cup butter pat by pat. You may need to put the pan back over the lowest heat so the butter melts.

Voila!

The sauce should be thickish.
