Low carb bearnaise sauce

“A Béarnaise sauce is simply an egg yolk, a shallot, a little tarragon vinegar, and butter, but it takes years of practice for the result to be perfect” – Fernand Point (1897-1955).
As you can see, this is a perfect low carb sauce. Here’s what you will need:

1 tablespoon chopped shallots
1 tablespoon tarragon
1 tablespoon fresh chervil
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
4 tablespoons dry white wine
4 egg yolks
3/4 cups melted butter
Salt
Pepper

Add all the ingredients except egg yolks and butter to a sauce pan. When the mix is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, let it cool for a while. Beat the egg yolks in a bowl with one tablespoon of water and add the mixture to your bowl. Place your bowl over simmering water and slowly add the melted butter while stiring. Be careful that the temperature doesn’t become too high as it will cause the sauce to separate. You can bring the sauce back together if it separates by adding a little bit of cold water and whisking your sauce.
