This is the original recipe from my grandma

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Beat the egg yolks and wine in a metal bowl over a pan of warm water until frothy. Add the butter drop by drop, then in a thin stream, stirring constantly; the egg yolks must not curdle. Season to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Bring the milk to a boil, stir into the sauce, and simmer for 1 minute. Stir in the mustard. Season again to taste. Boil the eggs until soft-boiled (about 7 minutes). Finely chop the chives. Peel the eggs and halve them lengthwise. Add them to the mustard sauce. Sprinkle with chives and serve. Potatoes are delicious with this dish.
