Super Easy Hollandaise Sauce

This is delicious on asparagus, broccoli, any greens, and pretty much anywhere you would use mayonnaise.

3 egg yolks
3 tbs butter or ghee
lemon juice
salt
mustard (optional)
cayenne pepper (optional)

• Separate the eggs.  (Set aside the egg whites for making meringue or grain-free tortillas.)
• Beat the yolks in a small metal bowl with a whisk.
• Add the butter to the yolks.
• Place the bowl in the top of a double boiler.  I use a vegetable steamer as my double boiler.
• Whisk the eggs and butter until the butter melts.
• As soon as the butter is melted remove the sauce from the heat.
• Whisk in lemon juice and salt, mustard and/or cayenne to taste.
