    Instructions

    1. Clarify the butter by melting it in a heavy-based saucepan on low heat. When the butter starts foaming, take the pan off the heat and leave it to stand until the white solids sink to the bottom of the pan. Sieve the butter and discard of the solids.

    2. Pour the white wine vinegar into a non-reactive saucepan, before adding the shallots, chopped tarragon and salt (amount depending on personal preference). Heat over medium heat until the volume of liquid has reduced by more than a half. Strain, then set aside until it is completely cool.

    3. Beat egg yolks with 1 tsp of water, then stir the egg yolk in with the cooled vinegar and add the lemon juice.

    4. Pour the mixture into a bowl that’s suspended over a pan of simmering water. Ensure that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Whisk until the sauce has increased in volume and thickened enough to fully coat one side of a spoon.

    5. Take the bowl away from the heat and pour in the clarified butter slowly. Whisk until the mixture is thick and smooth.

    6. Fold in the tarragon leaves and season with the salt and freshly ground pepper to personal preference.

    7. Serve and enjoy!
