HOLLANDAISE SAUCE, BLENDER METHOD



Hollandaise Sauce, Blender Method image

An eggs benedict isn't complete without a draping of hollandaise sauce on top. The classic French sauce is traditionally made by gently heating egg yolks over a double boiler, then slowly (and painstakingly) whisking in melted butter until it becomes a creamy emulsion. In this recipe, we get the same silky sauce without the hassle by letting the blender do all the work.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Yield Makes about 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
3 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 cup boiling water
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep warm until ready to use.
  • Place egg yolks in a copper or stainless-steel bowl that fits snugly in the top of a medium saucepan. Fill the saucepan with 2 inches of water, and bring to a boil. Whisk the yolks, off the heat, until they become pale. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and the salt, and whisk until well combined. Gradually add 1/4 cup boiling water, whisking constantly. Place bowl over medium saucepan containing boiling water, and reduce heat to lowest setting. Whisking constantly, cook until the whisk leaves a trail in the mixture and it begins to hold its shape. Remove from heat.
  • Pour the warm melted butter into a glass measuring cup. Add to yolk mixture, one drop at a time, whisking constantly. After you have used about a tablespoon of the melted butter, you can start adding it slightly faster, still whisking constantly. If the butter is added too quickly, the emulsion will be too thin or will "break."
  • Once all of the butter has been added, adjust the seasoning with the remaining tablespoon lemon juice and cayenne pepper. If the sauce is too thick, you may thin it with a little additional lemon juice or water. If not serving immediately, place over a pot of simmering water removed from heat, or in a warm spot on the stove up to 1 hour. Alternatively, store in a clean thermos that has been warmed with hot but not boiling water for up to 3 hours.

Tips:

  • Use clarified butter: Clarified butter is made by removing the milk solids from butter. This gives it a higher smoke point, making it less likely to burn when making hollandaise sauce.
  • Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature: This will help the sauce come together smoothly.
  • Add the butter slowly: Whisking in the butter too quickly can cause the sauce to separate.
  • Don't overheat the sauce: Hollandaise sauce should be cooked over low heat, or it will curdle.
  • Serve the sauce immediately: Hollandaise sauce is best when served immediately after it is made.

Conclusion:

Hollandaise sauce is a classic French sauce that is perfect for serving with eggs, fish, and vegetables. It is a rich and creamy sauce that is easy to make at home. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious hollandaise sauce that will impress your friends and family.
