3 Citrus Hollandaise Sauce Recipes

CITRUS HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine orange and lemon juices in a bowl. Whisk together egg yolks and 2 tablespoons water in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water until mixture foams and begins to thicken, about 1 minute. Add half of citrus juices and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Puree yolk mixture, remaining citrus juices, lemon zest, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cayenne in a blender until mixture thickens. With blender on low speed, add butter in a slow, steady stream until combined. Serve warm. Sauce can be stored in refrigerator in an airtight container up to 1 day. Gently warm before serving.

Steps:

• Add egg yolks to a small saucepan; whisk until lemon yellow and slightly thick, about 1 minute. Whisk in lemon juice.
• Add 2 tablespoons cold butter, and place over very low heat. Whisk constantly while butter is melting, and continue whisking until thick enough to see the pan between strokes. Remove pan from heat, and beat in 1 tablespoon cold butter. Repeat. Whisk in melted butter a little bit at a time. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.

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.

EASY 3-INGREDIENT HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil water in double boiler or sauce pan. Place glass bowl over top of sauce pan if using this method.
• Place 1/2 cup butter in double boiler or glass bowl. Allow to mostly melt.
• Add 2 egg yolks and 2 TBS lemon juice.
• Quickly whisk for 3-6 minutes or until sauce thickens to your liking.
• If sauce starts to separate, whisk faster for a minute or two longer.
• If this still doesn't make it come together again, drop an ice cube into the bowl and whisk until it is melted. I don't know why, but ice does the trick!
• Serve with artichokes, asparagus, eggs benedict, etc.
