(Kathie Williams) This is a recipe for Sauce Bearnaise - I had it on a cruise a few years ago and can guarantee it is RICH - no shortcuts allowed - but it does wonders for steak..etc... I tried several until this evolved - and I recommend small portions because it is sooooo rich - but sooooo good. Great for company...

Combine first 7 ingredients. Cook over direct heat until reduced by half.

Allow to cool. Then add - SLOWLY - the egg yolks and butter. Correct seasoning to taste. Yield - 1½ cups give or take.

(My husband puts this over broccoli; my mom over asparagus (YUCK!) - I'll stick with steak....
