image_pdfimage_print

Whether its glazed over steak, spooned over pasta or mixed into soups, we’ve all had a

taste of French Mother Sauces. in this recipe we are taking about one of the most popular,

of one of them, there are five, Hollandaise sauce.

The right sauce can elevate any dish by providing textural contrast, balancing flavors or adding extra seasoning.

Hollandaise sauce is an egg yolk mixture emulsified with butter and lemon juice.

It is a delicate sauce and creamy. it taste like rich creamy butter, prefect over poached.

To poach eggs bring a pan of salted water to a boil, drop eggs in slowly, add a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to the water,

it helps the eggs keep their shape, for the bacon ,you can use the classic Canadian bacon, if you like, it’s best cooked in the oven.

This recipe is not cooked the hot butter and lemon juice cook it to safe degree, if you are not comfortable with that process, you can set the

Hollandaise sauce mixture bowl over a pot of boiling water, to raise the temperature of the eggs higher.

Whatever method you decide this is one recipe you need, from this sauce as the base

many more are  sauces are started.

My recipes are always customizable to fit your lifestyle and taste by adding or subtracting ingredients.

Cooking is meant to be fun and creative, so have fun, experiment and let me know if you try the recipes and what you think,

that’s my favorite part.

Happy Day

    1. Good morning Gwen,
      thank you for the question, I did put it over boiling water for a few minutes to thicken it and bring it to a higher temperature. At the restaurant we didn’t cook it, we used it quickly, for the home cook it is better to bring it to a higher temperature. If you try the recipe let me know how you like it. Have a wonderful day.
