📝 Preparation Steps
1
Set a glass or metal bowl over a pot of gently simmering water (do not let the water touch the bowl).
water1 tablespoon
2
Add egg yolks to bowl. Using a metal whisk or wire whip, whisk the yolks constantly without overcooking the yolks. You'll know the yolks have thickened enough when you can draw a line through the yolks and yolks stay put. The line does not fill in.

Remove from heat and immediately stir in lemon juice. Off the heat, set a kitchen towel over pot of water and set bowl on top.

4
Starting with just a few drops at a time, whisk in the warmed clarified butter. Once the emulsion has formed, you can add butter more quickly.
5
Once all the butter has been added, taste for seasonings. Add salt and tabasco or cayenne pepper if desired.
6
Use immediately or set aside in a warm (but not hot) place for up to ⏱️ 1 hour. If the sauce appears to thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water until desired consistency is reached.
