From a magazine, here for safe keeping. Makes a very good, thick and mild hollandaise. I eat it over poached eggs and toast in the mornings or use as a dipping sauce for steamed veggies. Amazingly easy. Stores well in fridge. I play around with the amount of mustard and cayenne as I like a spicier taste. Servings calculated on 1 T serving.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon butter
3/4 cup nonfat buttermilk, (see Tip), divided
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, swirling the pan, until the butter turns golden, 30 to 60 seconds. Pour into a small bowl and set aside. Whisk 1/4 cup buttermilk, cornstarch, salt and cayenne in a heavy medium saucepan until smooth. Whisk in egg along with the remaining 1/2 cup buttermilk. Set the pan over medium-low heat and cook the sauce, whisking constantly, until it comes to a simmer. Cook, whisking, for 15 seconds. Remove from heat and whisk in lemon juice and the reserved butter. Serve hot or warm. (Variations: Sauce Moutarde, add 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard. Sauce Maltaise, use 1 1/2 tablespoons orange juice in place of the lemon juice.) Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat in a microwave on High for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring once.

Tips for Making the Best Low-Fat Hollandaise Sauce:

- Use fresh egg yolks: Fresh egg yolks will give your sauce a richer flavor and a creamier texture. - Clarify the butter: Clarifying the butter will remove the milk solids, which can make the sauce oily. - Use a whisk: A whisk will help you to incorporate the melted butter into the egg yolks slowly and evenly. - Cook the sauce over low heat: Cooking the sauce over low heat will prevent the eggs from curdling. - Add flavorings: You can add flavorings such as lemon juice, Dijon mustard, or cayenne pepper to taste.

Conclusion:

Low-fat hollandaise sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is a great way to add flavor and richness to your meals without adding a lot of fat. With these tips, you can make a delicious low-fat hollandaise sauce that will impress your family and friends.
