Hollandaise
Fair warning: It is almost too easy to make this
creamy and decadent sauce in the
Cuisinart
Makes ¾ cup
½
cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
4
large egg yolks
1½
tablespoons fresh lemon juice
¼
teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch ground mustard
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
1. Put the butter into a saucepan set over low
heat until butter is melted and reaches a slight
simmer.
2. While the butter is melting, put the remaining
ingredients into the blender jar. About a minute
before adding the butter, blend on Low for
about 30 seconds to combine.
3. With the blender still running on Low, carefully
remove the measured pour lid from the
cover. Very slowly add the hot butter through
the opening (holding the pour lid or even a
dishtowel in place to prevent any splattering).
When adding the butter, be careful not to add
the white milk solids that will be left on the
bottom of the pan. Once all butter has been
added, check hollandaise for consistency. With
the blender turned off, use a long, slim spatula
to scrape down the sides, as some yolk may
have accumulated in the well by the blade. If
overall consistency is too thick, add some hot
water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and blend until
desired consistency is achieved.
4. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
5. Serve immediately or transfer hollandaise to a
double boiler to keep warm for serving.
