Hollandaise Sauce - Tutorial for Beginners
Hollandaise is a traditional French sauce with a rich, creamy, and buttery flavor. Egg yolks, butter, lemon juice, and a tiny bit salt and pepper are typically blended together to make it. The sauce’s tangy flavor from the lemon juice and velvety texture counteracts the richness of the butter. It is frequently put on top of fish dishes, grilled vegetables, or poached eggs.
Hollandaise sauce is a true culinary masterpiece that requires skill, patience, and a discerning palate to achieve the perfect consistency. Just note that if the temperature is too low, the sauce will take too long to thicken, resulting in a thin and watery sauce.
