Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons White wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 200 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 tablespoon Tarragon, finely chopped
- 1 small Shallot, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Place the egg yolks in a medium-sized bowl and whisk them together with the Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar until smooth.
While continuously whisking, drizzle in the vegetable oil very slowly at first, drop by drop, to create an emulsion. Once the mixture begins to thicken, you can add the oil in a steady stream while whisking vigorously.
When all the oil is incorporated, slowly whisk in the water to adjust the consistency, making the sauce slightly lighter and smoother.
Mix in the remaining tablespoon of white wine vinegar, finely minced shallot, and chopped tarragon. Stir well to combine.
Season the sauce with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Let the sauce rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve alongside grilled fish, meats, or as a dip for vegetables. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
