Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 (2-ounce) can anchovy fillets, drained
  • 1 bulb garlic, cloves peeled and left whole
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 bunches radishes, washed and stripped of all but their inner leaves

Instructions
 

  • Fill a stockpot or other food-safe container with water and insert an immersion circulator into the water bath. Set the temperature to 190ºF.
    Combine the butter, anchovy fillets and garlic in a quart-sized zipper-lock or vacuum-seal bag. Seal the bag, removing any excess air using the water displacement method or a vacuum sealer. 
    Place the sealed bag in the preheated water bath and let cook for 3 hours, or until you can mash 1 of the garlic cloves by gently squeezing the bag. 
    Remove the bag from the hot water bath and empty the contents into a wide-mouth Mason jar. Pour the olive oil into the jar. Use an immersion blender to process the mixture into a thick sauce. Serve warm or at room temperature, with radishes for dipping.
