Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks and lemon juice until the eggs turn pale and double in volume.
Set egg mixture over a saucepan with water that is just below a boil. Ensure the hot water is not touching the bottom of the bowl.
Continue to whisk eggs until the mixture begins to thicken and become lighter in color.
Slowly stream in melted butter until sauce has reached desired consistency. Adding a splash of warm water as necessary to adjust consistency.
Season sauce with salt to taste and a pinch of cayenne.
