Hollandaise Sauce

"Serve with steamed asparagus, lightly cooked fresh vegetables or poached seafood, such as salmon. Note: If sauce starts to separate, add 1 tablespoon boiling water, beating constantly. It is also possible to beat another egg yolks in a bowl and beat the separated mixture into the egg yolk; return to double boiler."

  1. Easy to make, great, clear directions but there was too much lemon for our tastes. I will be trying this again but will make some adjustments next time. Thank you!
