What sets this sauce apart from ordinary béarnaise sauce?

It is made exactly like a light béarnaise sauce, but with 4 tablespoons of tomato purée added, plus paprika and salt to taste.

Where does the recipe come from?

From Henriette Schønberg Erken's "Stor kokebok" from 1914, page 349.

How long does the sauce take?

About 25 minutes, and the recipe is intended for 4 servings.
