Easy Béarnaise Sauce For Steak

A quick and easy béarnaise sauce made in the blender.

A good Béarnaise sauce might come be a bit handier than one would think, and it is an excellent addition to both vegetables, fish, and meat. Serve it drizzled over roasted asparagus, steamed baby broccoli or as a dipping sauce for artichoke petals.

It also makes a luscious and indulgent sauce for any type of meat, but is especially lovely over poached eggs or alongside sizzling steaks, hot off the grill.
