Hollandaise Sauce

Hollandaise Sauce

Hollandaise Sauce is one of my favorite sauces, especially for an Egg Benedict. Of course it is a sauce, so it has many uses more than just Egg Benedict, for instance, it goes great with vegetables. 

I prefer mine on a toast with a spread, maybe a mashed avocado as a base and a poached egg topped with the sauce, deliciousness. Bon Appetit!!

Ingredients:

• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tbsp water
