Ingredients

  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and kept slightly warm (not hot)
  • Warm water, as needed

Preparation

  1. Put the egg yolks, lemon juice and salt into the mixing cup. Slowly pour the warm butter into the cup, carefully leaving any white milk solids on the bottom of the pot behind. Allow to rest for about 1 minute.
  2. Insert the blending shaft into the cup so that the blade guard touches the bottom of the cup. Blend on Low, keeping the blade on the bottom. Once the ingredients thicken and start to emulsify, continue processing, using a gentle up-and-down motion, until thick and all the ingredients are incorporated.
  3. If sauce is too thick, blend in warm water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency is achieved (approximately 2 tablespoons total).
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve immediately or transfer to a double boiler to keep warm.
