Steps:
- Add egg yolks to a small saucepan; whisk until lemon yellow and slightly thick, about 1 minute. Whisk in lemon juice.
- Add 2 tablespoons cold butter, and place over very low heat. Whisk constantly while butter is melting, and continue whisking until thick enough to see the pan between strokes. Remove pan from heat, and beat in 1 tablespoon cold butter. Repeat. Whisk in melted butter a little bit at a time. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
One of the "mother" sauces in classic French cuisine, this fundamental is perhaps best known in the United States as a decadent topping to eggs benedict. While this is indeed a wonderful way to use hollandaise, this creamy, rich, lemon-tinged sauce has so many other uses! And because hollandaise sauce is so easy to make-containing only butter, eggs and lemon-it's worth committing to memory.

Steps:
- In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, vigorously stir egg yolks and lemon juice with wire whisk. Add 1/4 cup of the butter. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly with wire whisk, until butter is melted.
- Add remaining 1/4 cup butter. Continue stirring vigorously until butter is melted and sauce is thickened. (Be sure butter melts slowly so eggs have time to cook and thicken sauce without curdling.) If the sauce curdles (mixture begins to separate), add about 1 tablespoon boiling water and beat vigorously with wire whisk or hand beater until it's smooth.
- Serve immediately. Store covered in refrigerator. To serve refrigerated sauce, reheat over very low heat and stir in a small amount of water.

RICH HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
This is the classic way to make Hollandaise that I learned in culinary school. It is so much less intimidating now. Once the technique is mastered, it's a great tool to have on hand to transform and elevate many dishes at home. Serve over eggs Benedict or simple poached eggs and toast. Also great with steamed asparagus or broccoli.

Steps:
- Fill a small pot with water to a depth of 2 inches; bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Whisk egg yolks and 1 teaspoon lemon juice in a medium heatproof bowl until well combined and smooth. Set bowl over the simmering water and whisk constantly, moving bowl on and off heat occasionally, until thickened, light yellow, and doubled in volume. The mixture should "ribbon" slightly when a whisk comes in and out. Remove from heat.
- Drizzle melted butter into the egg mixture, a few drops at a time, whisking constantly. Add remaining lemon juice in 2 batches as mixture thickens. Whisk constantly until all butter is incorporated. Whisk in salt and cayenne pepper. Serve immediately.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE
This rich yet airy, velvety sauce is made by enriching an acidic liquid with egg yolks and then thickening with butter. Here, we used a wine reduction, but you can skip that step and simply whisk eggs with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and 1/4 cup boiling water. As one of the French "mother sauces," its preparation is a basic culinary technique that can be varied to create other sauces in the same family (often referred to as "warm emulsions"). By changing the acidic liquid to blood orange juice and zest, you get sauce Maltaise, typically served over steamed asparagus; tangerine juice and zest flavor Mikado sauce. Perhaps the best-known variation is Béarnaise, a traditional accompaniment for steak. To make it, prepare the hollandaise as directed, adding tarragon (the defining flavor of Béarnaise) to the reduction mixture. As it is designed to demonstrate, the method is the key to making the sauce, not the specific ingredients used to give it flavor. When making hollandaise or any of its variations, using gentle heat is critical to achieving the right consistency. The best-and classic-way to do this is to "cook" it in a bain marie, or hot-water bath, instead of directly over a burner.

Steps:
- Make reduction Combine wine, vinegar, shallot, and peppercorns in a small skillet over medium-high heat; cook until reduced to 1 tablespoon, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the boiling water and strain through a fine sieve into a heatproof nonreactive (stainless-steel or glass) bowl.
- Prepare bain marie (hot-water bath) Fill a medium saucepan with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat so water is barely simmering.
- Heat egg yolks Add egg yolks to strained reduction and whisk, off the heat, until they become pale. Place bowl over the bain-marie. Whisking constantly, cook until the mixture is thick enough to hold a trail from the whisk and begins to hold its shape when drizzled from the whisk. Remove from heat. Wipe off any mixture that may have cooked onto the side of the pot with a damp paper towel to prevent any lumps from forming.
- Incorporate butter Whisking constantly, add butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until each addition is incorporated completely before adding the next. When all the butter has been added, season with lemon juice, salt, and cayenne. The sauce should be thick but still able to drizzle from a spoon (and it should form a pool, not a mound). If it is too thick, thin it with a little water.
- Although traditionally made with melted clarified butter (page 88), softened butter emulsifies more readily with the egg yolks and produces a lighter texture.
- Do not overheat the egg yolks; "temper" them instead by mixing with a bit of boiling water before placing in the hot-water bath to keep them from scorching.
- Simmer over very low heat. If the egg mixture is heated too quickly, it turns grainy; if cooked too long over too high a temperature, it will scramble.
- Add butter gradually to allow the mixture to emulsify. Adding too quickly will cause the emulsion to "break" or separate, preventing the liquid and butter from combining.
- Adjust the finished sauce with water to thin, and add lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper to flavor.
- If not serving immediately, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface of the sauce to prevent a skin from forming, and set over a pot of water that has been brought to a simmer and then removed from heat, or in a warm spot on the stove for up to 1 hour. Alternatively, store in a clean thermos warmed with hot but not boiling water, holding it for 2 or 3 hours at most.
