Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup butter unsalted and melted
  • 4 egg yolks
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Heat a saucepan with water to a gentle simmer.
  2. Add the egg yolks and lemon juice to a heat-safe mixing bowl.  Whisk using a hand mixer (or whisk by hand) until the mixture has doubled in volume.
  3. Place over the boiling water  o make a double boiler and cook while whisking, for about 1 minute.  Then, very slowly stream in the melted butter while whisking.  
  4. As soon as the sauce comes together, it's ready! It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and stay separated.  Serve over my Eggs Benedict, asparagus or broccoli.

Notes

  • If the sauce gets too thick, add in a tiny bit of hot water and whisk.  This should loosen up the sauce perfectly.
  • For a stronger lemon flavor, add some lemon zest to the sauce.
