Ingredients
  • 4 Tbs white wine vinegar
  • 4 Tbs white wine
  • 1 Tbs shallot, minced
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • ½ tsp dried Tarragon or 1-2 tsp of fresh, minced
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 8 Tbs butter
Instructions
  1. Put the vinegar, wine, shallot and pepper in a pan and boil until reduced to 2 TBS. Strain and set aside. Cream egg yolks with 1 TBS of butter and a pinch of salt. Turn off the heat and whisk the yolk mixture into the vinegar. Add 1 tablespoon of butter at a time. Add salt and pepper. Béarnaise sauce can be tricky so if it curdles, just whisk in a tablespoon of cold water. Dad always had a packet of Knorrs’ Béarnaise sauce on hand for back up :)
