This is a bad recipe. Find a different recipe, one that doesnt need to be completely modified in order for it to be good.

Very, very disappointing. Too much salt. Don't follow this recipe. If anything, follow the reviews of other people, or a different recipe.

Okay, so this was my first time making Hollandaise sauce.. I followed the recipe exactly except for the salt and pepper amounts as per reviews. The sauce broke appox. three mins into my constant whisking despite the addition of cold water I had on hand just in case.. not sure where I went wrong, I think I'll cheat next time with a blender recipe.

This recipe needs to be changed or removed due to incorrect seasoning.If I had not read the reviews first, I may have tried it as written.

this was my first time making Hollandaise and it came out perfectly, thanks! Tasted exactly how Hollandaise should; creamy and a little tart. I always make adjustments to the pepper and salt in pretty much all recipes I try, so I don't think I used the exact amount called for. But I followed the clear directions about whisking it for 8 min. until it thickens, paid attention to the heat of the pan, and it went flawlessly. Was expecting a lot more trouble from a sauce that has a reputation for being a little high maintenance. Probably helped to have very fresh eggs from our 2 backyard hens.

Awful, awful recipe. I used it to make Eggs Benedict and the only reason I finished eating it was because I scraped the sauce off. Way too much salt, too much pepper. The consistency of the sauce was right, but you certainly didn't need to whisk it for 8 minutes, 3 minutes was sufficient. I actually registered this account just to say how awful the recipe is.

I should have read the review by 'Eostar' before preparing this recipe. The salt and pepper should definitely be added after cooking. This is a great starting recipe for Hollandaise. I ended up whipping up a few more yolks and adding them to the mixture to cool down the salt. A few more drops of lemon juice and 1/2 tsp water and I had Hollandaise... still a little salty, but tasty enough to pull off on my fiance. We had it over Eggs Sardou and enjoyed it very much. Next time I will use unsalted butter and hold off on the salt and pepper. Perhaps I'll use white pepper... Thank you!

The recipe came out really good for me. I love Hollandaise sauce and never knew how to make it, and it ofcourse goes with my Atkins diet!! Yes, the person made a mistake in typing the salt-pepper amounts....but it is common sense...all of us make mistakes in typing. That should not be a criteria for rating the recipe. On the other hand, I am glad the person took the time and effort to share this recipe with all of us. Thanks!!!

I followed the directions exactly as instructed. The mixture broke apart as soon as it hit the melted butter. Whisked it for 8 min as instructed on low heat. Was getting worse. And the black pepper...come on. Looks and taste nothing like hollandaise sauce. Couldn't save it with the splash water..Would not recommend..sorry :(

Very nice. I treated my wife to eggs benedict this morning. The sauce was creamy with a hint of lemon. I garnished with parsley. The sauce emoulsified to about 2-3 times its original mass. I also used Smart Balance butter to ease the fat content. The sauce came out great !

Too much salt. Otherwise, great. Try just adding a sprinkle of salt and pepper instead and add more at the end if needed.

I have had several people comment on this being the best hollandaise sauce they've ever had. As far as it having too much salt/pepper - we add more than the recipe calls for, we like it salty, peppery and with lots of lemon. To all the reviewers who said theirs separated immediately, turn the stove down to avoid this.

i love this sauce and make it often,i gave it only 4 stars b/c if you follow the recipe (salt & pepper) it would be unedable...HOWEVER the method is much easier than the traditional way. this makes the recipe worth adjusting.
