From The Joy of Cooking. This is like a taste of heaven. Wonderful on fillet of beef, vegetables, eggs, or fish. I could just eat it with a spoon.

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup white wine
2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots or 1 tablespoon onion
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons tarragon leaves (preferably fresh, but dried will do)
1 tablespoon chervil
1 sprig fresh parsley or 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
3 egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup real butter (stick margarine will do in a pinch)
