WEEK #11 – HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

It was only about two years ago that I first tried hollandaise sauce..not because it’s hard to make, but because the sound of it scared me. Once Hubbyman forced me to try a bit of his eggs Benedict I was all in. It was amazing….what had I been missing all these years. We were given a packet mix in a gift basket a couple years ago for Christmas, so I made it…it was amazing. But…..yes there is always a but…..there were so many weird ingredients. A quick google search and I found out it really is only a few simple ingredients that you probably already have at home. Plus you only need a blender instead of heating up the kitchen and dirtying up a pot (although it can be made in a saucepan if you don’t have a blender).

This is so easy and uses regular ingredients that there is no reason you can’t make it quickly at home. In fact, it was quicker than making it with the packet (and it tastes better too).

I couldn’t figure out how to make vegan hollandaise sauce, but it is naturally gluten free and can be made dairy free if needed.

    This sauce came out WAY too peppery and lemony. I’m used to a creamy, mildly sour/sharp sauce, but the pepper in this was overwhelming. Very disappointed. 🙁
