Place butter in a microwaveable 1-cup
(250 ml) measure. Cover with waxed
paper and microwave on High (PL-10) to
melt, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly,
about 4 to 5 minutes.
Place egg yolks, lemon juice, water, salt
and dry mustard in a microwaveable
4-cup (1 L) measure or bowl with handle.
Whisk until emulsified and smooth. Whisk
in melted, cooled butter; whisk until
completely emulsified.
Cook sauce uncovered for 2 minutes on
medium-high (PL-7), stopping to whisk
briskly every 20 seconds. The mixture will
begin to thicken at the edges and
resemble a soft custard. Cook until
mixture thickens enough to coat a metal
spoon. Serve warm with seafood,
vegetables, or eggs.
If not serving immediately, cover with a
round of waxed paper placed directly on
the sauce to prevent a skin from forming.
To reheat, remove waxed paper.
Microwave on Medium-Low (PL-3) for
2 minutes, stirring with a whisk after
1 minute of cooking, and again when
cooking is completed.
