• For the bearnaise sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine half of the tarragon with the shallots, vinegar and wine. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Blend the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the bearnaise reduction together in a blender. With the blender running, add one-third of the melted butter in a slow, steady stream. Once the butter emulsifies, turn the blender speed up to high and add the remaining butter. Add the remaining half of the tarragon, season with salt and pepper, and give the sauce one more buzz.

• To the yolks in the food processor, add 1/4 cup of the bearnaise sauce and the creme fraiche, mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice. Process until completely smooth--you may have to add a few drops of water to loosen. Season with salt.
