Blender Hollandaise Sauce Recipe
Instead of standing over a bain marie to make the classic hollandaise sauce, I like to whip up a batch in about three minutes using this blender method. The original written recipe goes back to the genius Julia Child and I’ve only slightly adapted it for our tastes.
How to Make Easy Blender Hollandaise Sauce
For blender hollandaise sauce, you’ll need the following:
egg yolks – I recommend using pasteurized eggs for this recipe lemon juice – I like to use fresh lemon juice butter – this recipe uses salted butter since no other salt is added to the hollandaise sauce. If you prefer unsalted, you can add salt to the final hollandaise sauce or simply omit it. hot water – this helps to thin the sauce in the blender. If you prefer your sauce even thinner, add more hot water (by the tablespoon) until it reaches your desired consistency. cayenne pepper, optional
Add your egg yolks and lemon juice to the blender and blend until they become a pale yellow color, about 20 seconds. Meanwhile, melt your butter in the microwave and slowly pour through the hole in the top of your blender while the blender is on medium speed. You can use a clean kitchen towel to prevent any splatters as you are blending your sauce. Add your hot water and cayenne pepper, if you are using it. We love it over eggs Benedict, salmon eggs Benedict, fish, or asparagus. Here’s my Blender Hollandaise Sauce Recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Enjoy!Robyn xo
