Ingredients

1/4 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup water
3 egg yolks
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon colman's dry mustard
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream

Directions

1

Pour the vinegar and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil.
2

Put the egg yolks in a small mixing bowl and stir in the sugar, mustard, flour, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
3

Very slowly, pour the boiling vinegar/water into the egg yolk mixture, a small amount at a time, whisking well to make sure the vinegar/water mixture and the egg yolk mixture combine - you don't want the eggs to cook.
4

Pour the dressing back into the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until it thickens and begins to bubble.
5

Remove from the heat and add the butter, whisking until it is melted and absorbed into the dressing. Whisk in the cream and cool completely.
6

Cover and refrigerate. Will keep for 2 weeks.
