ONE-MINUTE HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat butter in a microwave-safe measuring cup in the microwave until melted, about 30 seconds.
• Whisk egg yolks, lemon juice, milk, salt, and black pepper together in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk melted butter, a bit at a time, into egg yolk mixture until sauce is smooth.
• Cook sauce in the microwave on medium, whisking at 15-second intervals, until sauce is hot and thick, about 1 minute.

EASY HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• In a blender, combine egg yolks, water, lemon juice, and salt; blend until frothy.
• Heat butter in the microwave or in a small saucepan over medium until bubbly (do not let brown). With blender running, pour in hot butter in a very thin stream, blending until sauce is thick and emulsified.

EASY HOMEMADE HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the stick of butter in a small saucepan. Melt the butter in the saucepan. Make sure to swirl the pan until the butter is no longer frothy.
• Place the egg yolk in a cup that just fits the head of your immersion blender. Add the lemon juice and water to the cup.
• Turn on the immersion blender and begin pouring the melted butter into the cup while the immersion blender is still on.
• Blend until the sauce is completely smooth.
• Whisk in the salt to taste.
• Store in a lidded pot in a warm place. The Hollandaise cannot be reheated once it gets cold. It will also not pour properly if it becomes too cold. It will only stay the right consistency while it is a warm temperature, so keep that in mind when making it for whichever dish you would like to serve it with.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Vigorously whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a stainless steel bowl and until the mixture is thickened and doubled in volume. Place the bowl over a saucepan containing barely simmering water (or use a double boiler,) the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl. Continue to whisk rapidly. Be careful not to let the eggs get too hot or they will scramble. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and continue to whisk until the sauce is thickened and doubled in volume. Remove from heat, whisk in cayenne and salt. Cover and place in a warm spot until ready to use for the eggs benedict. If the sauce gets too thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water before serving.
• Brown the bacon in a medium skillet and toast the English muffins, cut sides up, on a baking sheet under the broiler. Fill a 10-inch nonstick skillet half full of water. Add white vinegar to the cooking water. This will make the egg white cook faster so it does not spread. Bring to a slow boil. Gently break 1 of the eggs into the water taking care not to break it. Repeat with remaining eggs. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook 3 1/2 minutes until the egg white is set and yolk remains soft. Remove with a slotted spoon, allowing the egg to drain. To assemble: Lay a slice of Canadian bacon on top of each muffin half, followed by a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon hollandaise sauce over the eggs. Garnish with chopped parsley.
• Yield: 4 servings

CLASSIC HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• Add the egg yolks, lemon juice, 3/4 teaspoon salt and cayenne pepper to a medium heatproof bowl and whisk to combine.
• Set the bowl over a medium saucepan of gently simmering water (do not allow the bowl to touch the water). Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly and rapidly until the mixture is pale and has thickened, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula if needed. If the bowl feels hot to the touch, remove it from the heat and continue whisking until cooler. If the sauce starts to get lumpy, grainy or begins to separate, remove from the heat and whisk in a few drops of warm water. Return to the heat and continue whisking until all the butter has been added.
• Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning with lemon juice and salt to taste. Serve immediately or cover and hold in a warm place for up to 2 hours, whisking occasionally. The sauce should not be reheated.

HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• Pour 1-inch of water into a large saucepan; over medium heat, bring to a simmer. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low.
• Place egg yolks and 1 teaspoon water in a medium mixing bowl and whisk until mixture lightens in color, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sugar and whisk for another 30 seconds.
• Place the mixture over the simmering water and whisk constantly for 3 to 5 minutes, or until there is a clear line that is drawn in the mixture when you pull your whisk through, or the mixture coats the back of a spoon.
• Remove the bowl from over the pan and gradually add the butter, 1 piece at a time, and whisk until all of the butter is incorporated. Place the bowl back over the simmering water occasionally so that it will be warm enough the melt the butter. Add the salt, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper. Serve immediately or hold in a thermos to keep warm.

EGGS BENEDICT AND EASY HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Break each egg into an individual small bowl and set aside. Fill a large (12-inch) saute pan about half full with water and bring to a boil. Carefully slide each egg into a separate corner of the pan and simmer for exactly 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the eggs to sit in the water for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the slices of prosciutto on a sheet pan and roast for 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Place both halves of each toasted muffin on a dinner plate and, using a slotted spoon, slide a poached egg onto each half. Drizzle hollandaise sauce over the poached eggs and garnish with chives. Serve with a slice of prosciutto.
• Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in the jar of a blender and process on low for 15 seconds. Melt the butter in a small saucepan until it is sizzling hot. Remove the small clear insert in the top of the blender. With the blender on low, slowly add the hot butter to the egg and lemon mixture and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is very thick.

AN EASY HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• Put the egg yolks into a 1-quart (1-liter) pitcher large enough to contain the head of your hand blender.
• In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and bring to exactly 245°F (119°C), then remove from the heat.
• As you start blending with the hand blender, carefully but steadily pour the hot butter into the egg yolks, and keep mixing. You should obtain a smooth emulsion.
• Season with the cayenne and salt, then mix in the lemon juice. Keep at room temperature until serving.

EASY HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the butter into four pieces, place in a 1-quart glass measure or bowl, and microwave, covered with a paper towel, on high, until almost melted, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove butter from the microwave and stir until completely melted.
• Separate eggs, placing the yolks in a small bowl and setting the whites aside for another purpose. Beat the yolks well with a whisk or fork, then add to the butter and stir well.
• Add cream and lemon juice to egg mixture and stir well. Microwave mixture, uncovered, on high, until just slightly thick, about 1 to 2 minutes, stopping every 20 seconds to stir with a fork. Remove sauce from microwave and stir in mustard.
• NOTE: Sauce may be kept warm for up to 2 hours in an insulated container. Or cool the sauce to room temperature and refrigerate it in a covered microwave-safe container for up to 24 hours. To re-warm, cover container with plastic wrap, pierce wrap with a knife to vent, and microwave on 50 percent power until heated through, about 3 to 4 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through. Do not allow sauce to boil.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, vigorously stir egg yolks and lemon juice with wire whisk. Add 1/4 cup of the butter. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly with wire whisk, until butter is melted.
• Add remaining 1/4 cup butter. Continue stirring vigorously until butter is melted and sauce is thickened. (Be sure butter melts slowly so eggs have time to cook and thicken sauce without curdling.) If the sauce curdles (mixture begins to separate), add about 1 tablespoon boiling water and beat vigorously with wire whisk or hand beater until it's smooth.
• Serve immediately. Store covered in refrigerator. To serve refrigerated sauce, reheat over very low heat and stir in a small amount of water.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan and skim any white solids from the surface. Keep the butter warm.
• Put the egg yolks, white wine or tarragon vinegar, a pinch of salt and a splash of ice-cold water in a metal or glass bowl that will fit over a small pan. Whisk for a few minutes, then put the bowl over a pan of barely simmering water and whisk continuously until pale and thick, about 3-5 mins.
• Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the melted butter bit by bit until it's all incorporated and you have a creamy hollandaise. (If it gets too thick, add a splash of water.) Season with a squeeze of lemon juice and a little cayenne pepper. Keep warm until needed.
• To make eggs benedict, toast the muffin halves, top each half with a slice of warmed ham and a poached egg, and spoon over a generous helping of hollandaise.

QUICK AND EASY HOLLANDAISE SAUCE IN THE MICROWAVE

• Heat in microwave for 15 to 20 seconds; whisk.

"EASIEST EVER" HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the butter into several pieces and bring to room temperature.
• In the top of a double boiler, combine egg yolks, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
• Add a piece of butter.
• Cook, stirring steadily with a wooden spoon or wire whisk, over, but not touching, boiling water.
• When butter melts and sauce begins to thicken, add remaining butter, stirring constantly until melted.
• Continue cooking as sauce thickens, about 2 more minutes.
• Immediately remove from heat.

BASIC HOLLANDAISE

Steps:

• Boil the vinegar together with peppercorns and tarragon, reduce by half. Strain and reserve (see Secrets for success on storing, below).
• Boil a large pan of water, then reduce to a simmer. Using a large balloon whisk, beat together the yolks and 2 tsp of the reduced wine vinegar in a heatproof bowl that fits snugly over the pan.
• Beat vigorously until the mixture forms a foam, but make sure that it doesn't get too hot. To prevent the sauce from overheating, take it on and off the heat while you whisk, scraping around the sides with a plastic spatula. The aim is to achieve a golden, airy foam (called a sabayon), which forms ribbons when the whisk is lifted.
• Whisk in a small ladle of the warmed butter, a little at a time, then return the bowl over a gentle heat to cook a little more. Remove from the heat again and whisk in another ladle of butter. Repeat until all the butter is incorporated and you have a texture as thick as mayonnaise. Finally, whisk in lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste plus a little warm water from the pan if the mixture is too thick.
