Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 large Egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.125 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat until fully liquid but not browned. Remove from heat and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the egg yolks, fresh lemon juice, water, and salt. If desired, add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick.
Step 3
Blend the mixture on medium speed for about 10-15 seconds until the ingredients are emulsified and slightly frothy.
Step 4
With the blender running on low speed, very slowly drizzle in the melted butter through the blender's lid opening. Start with a thin stream and continue steadily until all the butter is incorporated.
Step 5
Once all the butter has been added, blend for another 5-10 seconds to ensure the sauce is smooth and thickened.
Step 6
Taste the Hollandaise sauce and adjust the salt, lemon juice, or cayenne pepper to your liking.
Step 7
Serve immediately over your choice of dish, such as poached eggs, asparagus, or salmon. If needed, keep warm for up to 30 minutes by placing the blender container in a bowl of warm water.
