Ingredients

  • 3 egg yolks pasteurized preferred
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 8 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 tablespoon hot water
  • pinch cayenne pepper optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Melt the butter in microwave or in a small pot over the stove. Allow the butter to begin to bubble, but not reach a full boil.
  2. As butter is melting, add egg yolks and lemon juice into your blender. Blend at a medium to medium high setting until the egg yolk lightens to a light yellow color. This will take about 20-30 seconds.
  3. Slowly drizzle the hot butter into your egg yolks while your blender is at the medium setting. Use a clean kitchen cloth to prevent any spatters of the hot butter onto you as you are pouring.
  4. Add hot water as a final step in blending your hollandaise sauce.
  5. If you prefer your hollandaise sauce a bit thinner, add hot water a tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition until the hollandaise reaches the consistency you prefer.
  6. You may add more lemon juice if you prefer more lemon flavor in your hollandaise, as well.
  7. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to final hollandaise sauce (optional)
