Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Hollandaise Sauce Classic.
Step 1
To create a delicious hollandaise sauce, start by whisking together the egg yolks, fresh lemon juice, cold water, a pinch of salt, and a dash of black pepper in a small bowl until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 2
Next, gently melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, allowing it to become completely liquid without letting it bubble.
Step 3
Once the butter is ready, slowly pour in the egg yolk mixture while whisking continuously.
Step 4
This is where the magic happens! Keep whisking the sauce over low heat for about eight minutes, or until it thickens to your liking.
Step 5
The key is to be patient and keep that whisk moving! When your hollandaise sauce reaches the perfect consistency, serve it right away, drizzling it over your favorite dishes for a burst of flavor.
Step 6
Enjoy the creamy richness that elevates any meal!.
