What each ingredient does

Sugar
Adds sweetness, balancing the savoury stock flavour to suit taste.

The step that matters

Whisk until thick. Brisk whisking beats air into the liquid and helps the dissolved stock thicken. Stopping early leaves the cream thin, so keep whisking until it holds more body.
