Long live France! This time we are going on the French tour. We’re doing this using Provencal herbs and a classic French sauce, béarnaise. And what goes better with this than a tasty tender tenderloin?

Beef tenderloin is known as one of the most tender pieces of beef. Because there are only two of these, about 2.5 kg, in a beef, it is unfortunately also a precious piece of beef.

Tenderloin is a piece of beef that is characterized by a very tender structure. Due to the lean character of the meat, it often has a less pronounced taste. That is why we like to combine it with tasty herbs and a suitable sauce.

It is also a very traditional cut of meat. That is why we also combine it with a traditional sauce this time. They call Bearnaise sauce the king of sauces. It is a creamy sauce that goes particularly well with a delicious piece of meat such as tenderloin.

With the recipe below, you can put a delicious traditional dish on the table. Bon appétit!

  • Break 4 eggs, we only need the yolk.
  • Put the previously made reduction in a bowl over the pan of water and add the eggs.
  • Start stirring immediately with a whisk and continue to do this until all the egg yolk and reduction are mixed together.
  • If you start to notice that the egg yolk is starting to set, quickly remove the bowl from the pan and keep stirring.
  • Gradually add the melted butter to the scrambled egg yolk and the reduction. You also have to keep stirring this continuously.
  • The béarnaise sauce is ready when it has about the thickness of mayonnaise, if the sauce is too thick you can dilute it a bit with lukewarm water.
  • Add some fresh tarragon and some salt and pepper to taste.
