This is so interesting, I've never seen a recipe for bernaise before because I always just buy a powdered packet at the grocery store. I've been wondering what goes in it and I'm surprised to see how few ingredients. I definitely want to try it the next time we are having steak. I didn't realize it was mostly egg yolks.
