How to Make Quick Delicious Hollandaise Sauce

  1. Melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
  2. In a blender, combine 3 large egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional).
  3. Blend on low speed until combined.
  4. With the blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the melted butter until the sauce is emulsified and thick.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. For a Béarnaise sauce: Substitute the lemon juice with 1 tablespoon of dry white wine. Add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped sautéed shallots, 1 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh tarragon, and 1/2 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh chervil. Omit the cayenne pepper and add a pinch of freshly ground white pepper instead.
