bearnaise sauce
Buttery tarragon emulsion
Béarnaise sauce is a rich French sauce made from clarified butter and egg yolks, flavored with tarragon and shallots reduced in vinegar.
It's a classic accompaniment to grilled steak and other meats: filet mignon with béarnaise.
The sauce is notoriously temperamental—it can separate or curdle if the heat isn't carefully controlled.
