Hollandaise Sauce

A classic, velvety emulsion of egg yolks, clarified butter, and lemon, finished with just enough acidity to brighten eggs, fish, and vegetables.

Come preparare

1
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat until fully liquid. Let it stand for 2 minutes, then carefully pour the clear golden butter into a jug, leaving the cloudy milk solids in the pan; keep the clarified butter warm, not hot.
2
Bring 2 to 3 cm of water to a bare simmer in a saucepan. In a heatproof bowl that fits over the pan without touching the water, whisk the egg yolks, lemon juice, and warm water until blended and lightly foamy.
3
Set the bowl over the barely simmering water and whisk continuously for 2 to 3 minutes, scraping the sides, until the yolks are pale, airy, and thick enough to leave a ribbon that briefly holds on the surface.
4
Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk in the warm clarified butter a few drops at a time at first. Once the sauce begins to thicken and emulsify, add the remaining butter in a thin, steady stream while whisking constantly until glossy and smooth.

5
Season with the sea salt and taste. Add a few drops more lemon juice if needed. Serve immediately while the sauce is warm and fluid; it should coat a spoon but still fall in a smooth ribbon.

Perché questa ricetta funziona

Clarifying the butter gives the sauce a clean, glossy texture, while gentle yolk warming creates a stable emulsion without scrambling. Lemon cuts the richness and keeps the finish lively.

Conservazione e riscaldamento

Come conservarla

Hollandaise is best served immediately. If necessary, keep it warm for up to 30 minutes in a heatproof bowl set over warm, not simmering, water; do not refrigerate for later use.

Come riscaldarla

Do not reheat directly over heat. To loosen a warm sauce, whisk in a teaspoon of warm water. Discard sauce that has been held at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
