Are you looking for a perfect Hollandaise Sauce recipe?
This amazing Hollandaise sauce is one of the five most important sauces in French cuisine and consists of egg yolks, butter, white wine or lemon juice, and water whisked to creamy perfection over low heat.
This sauce is the typical sauce in many restaurants for breakfast. Suppose you have never tried hollandaise sauce with poached eggs you definitely should. It is so good! 😉
Breakfast options with hollandaise sauce
Let’s start with poached eggs. They are so soft and delicate, they are a perfect match with a crusty piece of bread or toast.
You may toast your bread, make a poached egg, and top it with Hollandaise sauce.
If you want to make a special brunch for your loved one you may add a few pieces of smoked salmon or cured salmon.
I prefer cured salmon and make it at home often! 🙂
Secondly, if you are not a big fan of poached eggs, you can prepare Shrimp Omelette and add a few spoons of sauce on top of it. It will taste amazing!
Also, a sunny-looking egg with toasty bread is also a great option. You can add sliced fresh avocado and pour hollandaise sauce on top. Yum!
Lunch Alternatives With Hollandaise Sauce
If we start talking about hollandaise sauce for lunch meals, we will find dozens of the most delicious and good-looking pairing recipes. But, I will pick a few.
If you love asparagus or green beans, you can blanch, pan-fry, or oven-bake them and then serve them with a fresh bowl of sauce. You can serve on top of the Bacon Wrapped Asparagus.
Can I Make This Dish Part Of A Menu?
Certainly!
You can serve this delicious sauce with Oven Baked Friesas an appetizer.

Place the small saucepan with the egg yolk mixture over a pan of hot water without allowing the water to touch the bowl. The steam will heat it.
Whisk the mixture constantly. As the butter melts, it will get a little frothy. Continue whisking constantly for about 3 minutes or until the mixture starts to thicken then immediately remove from heat. It should be thick enough. If it is too thick you can add a little bit of warm water and whisk it again.
