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.

Steps:
- Place egg yolks, lemon juice, and salt in a blender; blend until combined. Melt butter in a saucepan or in microwave. With blender running, slowly pour butter through opening in lid in a thin stream until sauce is thick, about 1 minute.
- Serve immediately or transfer to a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm; serve within thirty minutes. If sauce is too thick, thin to desired consistency by whisking in hot water one tablespoon at a time.

[email protected]Not a fan. The sauce was too thick and didn't have the right flavor. I'll stick to my old recipe.
