Ingredients

1/4 cup chopped fresh tarragon leaves
2 shallots, minced
1/4 cup champagne vinegar
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 egg yolks
1 stick butter, melted
Salt and pepper

Directions

Make the bearnaise reduction first. In a small saucepan, combine the tarragon, shallots, vinegar and wine over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Blend yolks and bearnaise reduction together. With the blender running, add 1/3 of the butter in a slow steady stream. Once it emulsifies, turn the blender speed up to high and add the remaining butter. Season with salt and pepper and set aside in a warm spot to hold the sauce.

EasyT to make
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is very good. I substituted purple onion for the shallots and white vinegar for the champagne vinegar. I used 1/2 the... butter. After blending and letting sit for several minutes, it thickened up nicely. Will definitely make this again. Read more

FIRST TIME FROM SCRATCH AND SOLD!!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We are big fans of bernaise sauce in my house....Many years ago, after trying it for the first time, I asked a friend if she... knew how to make it. She quickly responded with "Oh, its so hard,,,use Knorrs,,,they make a packaged one that is fabulous. I took her advice, was happy with not only the taste, but the simplicity of simply adding 1/2 and 1/2 and butter. Today, I watched Tyler make it from scratch and decided to try it..Knorrs has lost a customer..Not only was it easy, but the fresh taste of the tarraon is second to none...We will never have good steak without it again..DELICIO'USRead more

This was a great sauce...rather than putting into a blender, I did it all with my emersion blender. It was so easy...blended... the yokes, added to the reduction, blended another few seconds and Voila! Fantastic!Read more

Big Hit
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I decided to take on Christmas dinner for the first time and I made this sauce for the roast beef. I have never had a... bearnaise but a few of the people at dinner had and everyone loved it. My dad said it was good as any resturant bearnaise sauce he had ever had. FYI... Champagine vinager was almost $15 a bottle so I used white wine vinager. Read more
