How to Make Creole Hollandaise Sauce

  1. Fill the bottom of a double boiler with simmering water. Place the top of the double boiler over the simmering water.
  2. In the top of the double boiler, whisk together 3 large egg yolks and a pinch of cayenne pepper until slightly thickened.
  3. Gradually whisk in 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter, a tablespoon at a time, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding the next. Whisk constantly to prevent scrambling.
  4. Once all the butter is incorporated, whisk in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of Creole seasoning (or to taste). Continue whisking until the sauce is smooth, thick, and emulsified.
  5. Remove from heat and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Serve immediately over your favorite dish. Enjoy!
