Ingredients

  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne
  • dash freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup butter melted

Instructions

  • In an electric stand blender or food processor blend egg yolks, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, cayenne, and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Process on high speed until slightly thickened and lemon colored.
  • Melt the butter in a small pot or in the microwave in a glass measuring cup.
  • Turn blender to low speed; add butter to egg yolk mixture slowly in a thin steady stream.
  • Turn blender to the high speed setting and process until thickened, around 30-40 seconds or until desired consistency is reached.
  • On the stovetop pour into a double boiler or a glass bowl over simmering hot water (not boiling) to keep warm until serving. (Serve within 30 minutes)

Notes

  • Utilize a Double Boiler to Keep Warm - After making the sauce in the blender, it's simple to keep hollandaise sauce warm in a double boiler until serving. This is especially helpful for holiday brunch meals and special occasions when you need to do a bit of the prep work in advance.
  • Drizzle Very Hot Butter Slowly - It's important to drizzle the melted butter into the egg mixture in a thin steady stream.
  • Pepper - You can use white pepper in place of black pepper and smoked paprika in place of cayenne pepper.
