Melt the butter in a medium saucepan and cook the shallots until softened, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Stir in the mustard and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the court bouillon and crÅme fraöche and simmer for 5 minutes. Just before serving, place the egg yolks in the top of a double boiler over barely simmering water and slowly whisk in the sauce, a little at a time, until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chervil before serving. Serve with poached fish.

Make sure you don╒t boil this sauce. The temperature under the double boiler should be barely simmering.
