Steps:
- Use double boiler or like me - place a strainer/sieve over a sauce pan of water and place a bowl in the sieve.
- Beat yogurt, lemon juice, egg yolks well
- Heat over simmering water, stirring frequently, until sauce has thickened, approx 15 min (sauce will become thinner after about 10 min and then thicken again).
- Remove from heat and stir in salt, mustard, pepper and dill/parsley (if using).
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat yogurt instead of low-fat yogurt.
- If you don't have white wine vinegar, you can use lemon juice instead.
- Be sure to whisk the sauce constantly over low heat to prevent it from curdling.
- This sauce is best served immediately, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To reheat the sauce, place it in a saucepan over low heat and whisk constantly until warmed through.
