I've always just used butter, water, yolks and lemon juice, salt and cayenne.
thats just a basic hollandaise.
i think they're talking about adding a reduction to the hollandaise, such as when you make a bearnaise.
so like white wine, white wine vinegar, shallots, tarragon, and i forgot what else. reduced to like a spoonful of liquid and added to the hollandaise
