- Fill a small saucepan less than halfway with water and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Place a heatproof bowl (glass or metal) over pot, ensuring it doesn’t touch the water.

- Melt ¼ cup butter and set aside.¼ cup butter
- Once water is gently boiling, place bowl with egg yolk mixture over pot. Whisk constantly to prevent curdling. As mixture warms, it will begin to thicken. When it starts to thicken, remove pot from heat but leave bowl on top to maintain gentle warmth. Keep whisking until smooth.
- Slowly add melted butter while whisking continuously. Add 1 pinch salt.1 pinch salt
- Once sauce reaches your desired consistency and flavor, transfer it to a warm thermos or coffee tumbler. This helps prevent sauce from breaking, as it’s sensitive to temperature. Keeping it warm also ensures egg yolks stay safe to eat.
