Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 egg yolks
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons tarragon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon tarragon vinegar
1 teaspoon water
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Whisk egg yolks, black pepper, tarragon Dijon mustard, tarragon vinegar, water, and salt in a metal mixing bowl or small saucepan. Place over low heat and whisk until mixture foams, small wisps of steam appear from the sauce, and sauce is hot and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Raise and lower the pan over the heat to increase or reduce heat.
  • Remove from heat and whisk a few more seconds to make sauce slightly fluffy. Serve immediately.

I love the fact that this recipe uses white wine instead of red wine. It gives the sauce a lighter, more delicate flavor. I also appreciate that the recipe doesn't require any special equipment. I was able to make it with just a whisk and a saucepan.

I was skeptical about making a bearnaise sauce without butter, but I was pleasantly surprised. This sauce is just as rich and flavorful as the traditional version, but it's much healthier. I will definitely be making this again.
