Hollandaise Sauce Ingredients

Method

Hollandaise Sauce Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat until it is completely melted and hot, but not boiling.

  2. 2

    Whisk Egg Yolks

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the egg yolk mixture while continuously whisking to emulsify the sauce.

  4. 4

    Add Cayenne and Adjust Seasoning

    Once all the butter is incorporated and the sauce is thickened, add a pinch of cayenne pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  5. 5

    Serve Warm

    Serve the Hollandaise immediately as a side sauce or keep warm in a double boiler until ready to use.
