Easy, Tangy Hollandaise Sauce image

Great and easy hollandaise sauce. I like my hollandaise sauce tangy and with a kick so I add extra lemon juice and cayenne pepper to my liking. It serves 2 to 4 depending on what you put it on. I use it on eggs Benedict. It's the best I have had - not bland like some hollandaise sauces!

This sauce is delicious! I used it on eggs Benedict and it was perfect. The sauce was rich and creamy, with a nice tangy flavor. I will definitely be making this sauce again.

This sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I would prefer a more traditional hollandaise sauce recipe.

This hollandaise sauce is a winner! It's easy to make and has a great tangy flavor. I served it over poached eggs and asparagus, and it was a hit with my family. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
