Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon cold water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup butter

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, cold water, salt and pepper. Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Gradually whisk yolk mixture into butter. Continue whisking over low heat for 8 minutes, or until sauce is thickened. Serve immediately.

Footnotes

FOOTNOTE

  • If your sauce breaks and the butter and egg begin to separate, simply remove from the heat, add a splash of cold water, and whisk very fast. This should save your Hollandaise.
