Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

ingredients
2 pounds day boat scallops
Verjus-Vanilla Beurre Blanc
1 1/2 sticks butter, unsalted, divided
2 tablespoons shallots, finely diced
1/2 vanilla bean, split
1/4 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup verjus (i.e., verjuice)
1 ounce heavy cream
salt and white pepper to taste
directions
Sprinkle scallops with salt and sear in hot, almost smoking, saute pan until golden brown on each side, approximately 2 minutes on each side.
For Beurre Blanc: Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small non-reactive saucepan, add shallots, scraped seeds from vanilla bean, vanilla bean pod and saffron. Sweat over very low heat for 1 minute.
Add verjus and reduce by half to approximately 1/4 cup. Cut remaining butter into small pieces and whisk into sauce over low flame.
When butter is just completely melted, remove from heat immediately and strain through fine sieve. Whisk cream in and season with salt and white pepper to taste.
Serve immediately with scallops.
NOTE: Beurre blanc may be made and held in pre-warmed warmed thermos up to one hour ahead.
