Reduce heat to very low; stir in a few small pieces of butter, swirling with a wire whisk until mostly melted. Gradually add the remaining butter, whisking constantly until sauce is smooth. Season with salt, white pepper and remaining lemon juice to taste. Do not allow sauce to boil. Pour sauce over broccoli.
