Method

To make the hollandaise sauce, in a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, ⅛ tsp salt, and a few grinds of pepper. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. With the blender running, slowly add the warm melted butter and process until the sauce is thick and smooth. Taste and adjust
