Easy Hollandaise Sauce on Your Table in Minutes
The Best… Easy Hollandaise Sauce Recipe
Hollandaise sauce can be intimidating. I know I was intimidated by it until I decided to try to make it from scratch. I found an easy Hollandaise sauce recipe and figured I’d have a go of it since I had found white asparagus in the late spring. And white asparagus must be topped with Hollandaise sauce. It think it is a rule written in stone somewhere. It was a success.
A Hollandaise sauce is a rich sauce made with butter, eggs, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, cream, and sugar. All simple and basic ingredients. When whipped together, it is heavenly. It goes with beef, veal, pork, eggs, and seafood as well as veggies. I like it over white asparagus. Another favorite in our house, is Eggs Benedict which once you have the sauce, it is not as scary. Anything topped with the sauce suddenly becomes luxurious, special, and fancy. Perfect to make a meal a special one.
