Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice from half a medium lemon
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon dijon mustard
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted and very hot
Instructions
- In a small saucepan melt butter. Keep on low heat while you blend the other ingredients.
- In the jar of your blender, combine egg yolks, lemon juice, dijon, kosher salt, and cayenne, if using. Blend on high until fully mixed, about 10 seconds.
- Turn the heat back up on the butter to make sure it is very hot. Transfer to a cup with a spout. While blender is running, slowly drizzle the butter through the opening in the top. Run on high for 15 to 30 seconds. You will actually hear when the hollandaise is done when the sound becomes deeper in tone.
- Taste for salt and check for thickness. If it needs more salt, add a tiny pinch more. If you would like it thinner, drizzle in 1 to 2 tablespoons of hot water while you run the blender. If you want it thicker, run the blender 15 to 30 seconds longer.
- Serve as soon as possible.
Notes
To reheat the sauce, add it to a measuring cup or glass jar and place it in the water after you poach the eggs. If the sauce thickens, blend again with another tablespoon of very hot water or hot melted butter.
If you have leftovers, you can keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about two days. Reheat the leftover blender Hollandaise in a glass jar or measuring cup in a warm water bath. Blend again, adding a couple of tablespoons of hot water or melted butter to adjust to your desired consistency.
