For an even smoother sauce, consider using clarified butter. If you don't have a microwave, you can use a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Just be sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. A touch more lemon juice can brighten the flavor, while a pinch more salt can enhance the overall taste. Bearnaise sauce is best served immediately. If you need to keep it warm, place the bowl in a warm water bath, but be careful not to overheat it. Fresh tarragon, if available, is a delightful substitute for dried tarragon. Use about 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh tarragon.
