HOW TO MAKE HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
A good hollandaise usually depends on a whisk and good biceps. Because of my lack of bicep power, a blender comes in handy. You won’t believe how easy it is when reading the recipe: combine yolks, lemon juice and seasonings in a blender + stream in hot melted butter = thick and creamy hollandaise sauce. The friction of the blender blades along with the hot butter will heat the egg while blending.
Use your machine with confidence!
HOT BUTTER
Depending on how thick or thin you prefer your hollandaise sauce to be, use as much or as little butter as you like. If you’re unsure, you can start with ¾ cup of hot melted butter (6 oz/190g). Pour in ¼ cup first, let it blend for 3 seconds, then continue on with another ¼ cup. As you start to blend in the butter, it will thicken straight away. A little more butter will transform it to the consistency of mayo. A little more butter will turn it into a pourable, silky smooth sauce. Stop the blender after each addition to check the consistency as you go. This hollandaise sauce is so quick to make, make sure it’s the last thing you prepare for your meal to serve it fresh and warm.
TIPS
If for any reason your sauce has not thickened (usually happens if your butter was not hot enough when streaming it into the yolks), you can heat it in the microwave it for 5 seconds at a time, whisking between heating, until thick to your liking. Be careful not to leave it too long in the microwave as the eggs will cook in the butter and scramble. Hollandaise sauce fresh out of the blender will thicken up ever so slightly as it sits at room temperature.
