Easy
Ingredients:
3 egg yolks
dash of nutmeg
dash of cayenne1 teaspoon (more/less to taste) lemon juice
2 sticks of salted butter
Direction:
Put all ingredients but the
butter in a blender. In a microwave safe dish, melt the butter
to bubbling. Immediately start the blender and begin to add
the butter in a very thin stream through the hole for the
little removable insert. (Use your hand to cover all but the
half inch square between your thumb and forefinger that you're
pouring through. It will pop up all over as it blends. Your
palm will be covered when you finish, but that's easier to
wash than your counter and cabinets for four feet in every
direction.) Have patience with this because the more slowly
you add it, the better it will emulsify. It may take a full
minute or two, but it's better than madly whisking it in over
a double boiler hoping all the while that it emulsifies at
all. Three notes: Don't add salt, the butter will add plenty!
Fresh lemon juice makes a world of difference. You can play
with adding a few drops of water to get a thinner consistency
if you desire.
