and steamed vegetables.
Makes 1½ cups (375 ml)
Approximate preparation time: 15 minutes
Place butter in a saucepan over low heat to melt.
Insert the large chopping blade into the large work bowl of
the Cuisinart
®
Food Processor. Add the yolks, mustard, salt
and pepper and process for 90 seconds. Once the butter is
melted, turn heat up to bring the butter just to a boil. With
the machine running, slowly drizzle the hot butter through the
feed tube. Sauce will thicken to a mayonnaise consistency.
When all butter has been incorporated, add the lemon juice
and pulse to incorporate. Taste and adjust seasoning
accordingly. Serve while still warm.
