Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 3 large Egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 0.125 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat until fully liquid. Do not let it brown. Set aside and keep warm.

Step 2

In a blender, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, water, cayenne pepper (if using), and salt. Blend on medium speed for about 20 seconds until the mixture is well-combined and slightly frothy.

Step 3

With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the hot melted butter in a steady stream. Start with a thin stream to allow the sauce to emulsify, then pour more steadily as it thickens.

Step 4

Blend for an additional 15-20 seconds until the Hollandaise sauce is smooth, thick, and creamy.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional lemon juice or salt, if needed.

Step 6

Serve immediately over your favorite dishes. If not serving right away, keep the sauce warm by placing it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of warm water, stirring occasionally.
