Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 3 pieces Large egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.125 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until fully liquid but not browned. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Step 2
Add the egg yolks, fresh lemon juice, salt, and optional cayenne pepper to a blender.
Step 3
Blend the mixture on high speed for 10 seconds to combine and slightly aerate the yolks.
Step 4
With the blender running on low speed, very slowly drizzle the warm melted butter into the blender through the lid's opening. Pour in a steady, thin stream to allow proper emulsification.
Step 5
Once all the butter has been added, increase the blender speed to high and blend for another 10 seconds until the sauce is thick and creamy.
Step 6
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt, lemon juice, or cayenne pepper if necessary.
Step 7
Transfer the sauce to a bowl and serve immediately while warm. If needed, keep the Hollandaise sauce warm by placing the bowl over a pot of lukewarm water.
