Place a saucepan with some water and a glass bowl on the heat.

The bottom of the glass bowl should just touch the water.

Let this simmer very gently the whole time.

Whisk the yolks with the water, vinegar, and lemon juice, seasoning with pepper and salt.

Now whisk vigorously over the lightly boiling water until you have a firm foam and no liquid eggs are visible at the bottom.

Add the butter spoon by spoon while whisking.

Taste and season if necessary.

The mousseline can be kept warm over the hot water.

As it cools, it will thicken due to the butter.
