Easy Blender Hollandaise
Description
The recipe produces a smooth and rich hollandaise sauce by blending egg yolks and lemon juice together before slowly incorporating melted butter. The lemon juice provides a tangy brightness that balances the buttery richness. Seasoning with kosher salt and a pinch of white pepper adds subtle heat without overpowering the sauce's essential flavors.
The blender method eliminates the need for double boilers or constant whisking, making it accessible for many cooks. Adding hot water allows adjustment of the sauce’s thickness according to preference or intended use.
This hollandaise is suited for drizzling over dishes like eggs Benedict, steamed vegetables, or fish. The controlled lemon and salt seasonings help complement a variety of dishes without overwhelming them.
