Preparation

  1. Place vinegar in a very small pan over medium-low heat. When vinegar is hot, remove pan from heat and add saffron. Steep 20 minutes. Add lemon juice; mix well.
  2. Place egg yolk in a deep, medium mixing bowl. With a large whisk, beat about 15 seconds. Add the saffron mixture, salt and garlic, and whisk 30 seconds. Then, whisking vigorously, slowly add the oil in a thin stream. Whisk until the sauce is very thick. Adjust seasonings. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
