  • For Blendtec: Use SOUP button and let run full cycle. If butter is not hot, reheat. Press SOUP button, while motor is running, slowly pour butter through hole in lid.
  • For Vitamix and other variable speed power blenders: Start on speed 1, turn machine on then slowly increase to speed 10, then flip to high. Blend for 1 minute (and reheat butter if it's not hot). While motor is running, remove lid plug and slowly pour butter through hole in lid and blend for 2 minutes. Stop machine.
  • If the sauce is too thick, continue to blend while adding more lemon juice.
  • Pour into an ovenproof bowl. Stir in tarragon.
