How to Make Homemade Hollandaise Sauce
There are two different methods that I use to make homemade hollandaise sauce! Both come together very quickly and are so much easier than you think! I really encourage you to give the homemade hollandaise sauce a try.
BLENDER METHOD
- Melt butter.
- In a blender add egg yolks, lemon juice, dijon mustard, and salt. Blend until combined.
- With the blender running slowly pour in HOT melted butter in a slow stream until the mixture is emulsified.
- Serve the hollandaise sauce while warm.
STOVE TOP METHOD
- Place egg yolks and salt to a small sauce pan. Cook over low, whisking constantly, until the eggs have slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Cut butter into 1 tbsp sized pieces and add into egg mixture a few tablespoons at a time. Whisking until melted. Repeat until all butter has been used.
- Remove from heat and add in lemon juice and dijon mustard.
- Serve while warm.
- NOTE: If the hollandaise separates while sitting, just take your whisk and vigorously whisk the mixture to reemulsify.
