Ingredients

  • Coarse salt 6 spinach leaves, well washed 2 shallots, finely chopped 1/2 bunch watercress leaves 2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves 2 tablespoons fresh chervil leaves 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves 2 cornichons, rinsed and chopped 4 salted anchovy fillets, rinsed, soaked in water for 10 minutes, and back bones removed 2 tablespoons salted capers, rinsed and drained 1 small garlic clove 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper Freshly ground black pepper 3 hard-cooked large egg yolks 2 large raw egg yolks 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar

Directions

Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil; add salt. Combine spinach, shallots, watercress, parsley, chervil, chives, and tarragon in a fine sieve. Carefully place sieve in boiling water until greens are wilted, about 30 seconds. Remove, and place in ice-water bath to cool. Remove, and squeeze dry. Transfer to a food processor fitted with the metal blade.

Add cornichons, anchovies, capers, garlic, and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and black pepper. Process to a smooth paste. Add cooked and raw yolks, and butter. Process until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a medium bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Just before serving, remove from refrigerator, and slowly whisk in olive oil. Add vinegar, and whisk to combine. Adjust seasoning, if necessary.
