Fully melt 1 packet of the butter without getting too hot. Set to one side and keep warm.
Put three spoons of the puree into a bowl over a bain marie along with the double cream. Whisking constantly cook out until thick and glossy.
Emulsify the butter a bit at a time into the egg mixture until all incorporated. Add half the juice of a blood orange and a couple of grates of zest. Season with salt and set to one side and keep warm until ready to use.
