Hollandaise Sauce
5 egg yolks from
large eggs only
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 T. water
pinch of salt
1 lb. hot melted butter
cayenne pepper (be generous with amounts but add a little at a
time for taste)
Directions:
Combine egg yolks, lemon juice, water, salt and cayenne pepper in a
blender. Blend until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. With blender
still going, drizzle in the melted butter in a thin stream. Sauce will
thicken. Taste for cayenne pepper, add more if needed. Keep sauce in a
carafe until ready to use so sauce will remain at constant temperature.
This recipe cannot be reduced or increased in amounts or results will
not be good. |
