📝 Instructions

5 steps
1

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave until hot but not browned. Keep it warm.

2

In a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, water, and salt. Blend on medium speed for 10–15 seconds until frothy.

3

With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the hot melted butter in a thin, steady stream. Continue blending until the sauce is thick and emulsified.

4

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice, if desired. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika for extra flavor, if using.

5

Serve immediately over your dish of choice, or keep warm for up to 30 minutes by placing the sauce in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally.
