Directions:
- Melt the butter in the microwave.
- In a medium saucepan, make a thin roux using half the butter and the flour.
- Whisk in the milk a little at a time until thick and smooth.
- Lowering heat to minimum, add the egg yolks and remaining butter, stirring constantly, being careful not to let the yolks curdle.
- Gradually add the lemon juice; finish with salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika.
- Optional: since we're already straying from the classic technique and ingredients, why not add a touch of saffron, which doesn't affect the flavor so much as the color, giving the sauce a gorgeous yellow hue.
