These are adapted recipes from Dr. Atkins' New Diet Cookbook for those
concerned about their carbohydrate intake instead of fat. (Yes, there
really are some of us out here:) If you're old enough, this is probably the
way your mother *used* to cook. Happy Lowcarbing and Bon Appetit!
Melt butter in top of double boiler over hot, not boiling water. (Or just
use a non-stick pan on direct low heat source.) Add egg yolks one at a time
beating with whisk after each addition. Add 1/4 cup water and cream.
Continue to whisk until sauce begins to thicken, approx. 7 - 10 minutes. If
you prefer a thicker sauce, add arrowroot mixed with additional 1T. of
water and add to sauce. The added carbs are minimal but the texture of the
sauce is a bit thicker. Add nutmeg for garnish if desired. TIP: Use only
real butter to achieve the thickest consistency of sauce.

NOTES : Dr. A's recipe calls for using a double boiler. I'm always in a
hurry and use a regular, non-stick pan with the same success.
