Ingredients:

Egg yolks

White wine

Water

Unsalted butter

Lemon juice

Cayenne pepper

Pepper 

Mustard

Salt 

Capers, chopped (optional)


7

120 ml

20 ml

450 g

1 tbsp

¼ tsp

To taste

2 tbsp

1 ½ tsp

1 tbsp


Method:

1. Melt the butter

2. Combine egg yolks, white wine and water in a conical sauce pan. Whisk until creamy on low heat. 

3. Remove from the heat and gently stir the melted butter under the creamy egg yolk mass. The butter should thicken and solidify the egg yolk mass.

4. Add cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add more to taste if necessary

5. Add mustard and (optional: ideal for baked fish) chopped capers

6. Keep warm on top of a kitchen towel on top of a hot oven. Don’t put back on the range as the eggs will start baking.

Tip: can be stored for a couple of days after use and given second life by heating cream on the range, removing the cream from the range and adding the leftover sauce to the cream while stirring
