I think this is the first recipe that I learned by heart. Simple, easy, guaranteed to bring broccoli out of the supermarket and back onto your dinner table.

Ingredients

• ¹/₂ C butter, diced
• 2 egg yolks
• juice of one lemon

Procedure

1. Over low heat or in a double broiler, whisk ingredients together. Stir constantly. As soon as the mixture begins to thicken to a loose custard consistency, reduce heat and stir briskly to avoid breaking the sauce.

Serving suggestions

Serve over steamed vegetables.
