Easy, Tangy Hollandaise Sauce image

Great and easy hollandaise sauce. I like my hollandaise sauce tangy and with a kick so I add extra lemon juice and cayenne pepper to my liking. It serves 2 to 4 depending on what you put it on. I use it on eggs Benedict. It's the best I have had - not bland like some hollandaise sauces!

This sauce was a bit too lemony for my taste. I think I'll try using less lemon juice next time.

Not bad for a first attempt at hollandaise sauce. It was a bit thick, but the flavor was good.

This recipe is a great starting point for hollandaise sauce. I like to add a little bit of cayenne pepper and paprika for a bit of extra flavor.

A bit too tangy for my taste, but easily fixed with a little more butter.

I'm not usually a fan of hollandaise sauce, but this recipe changed my mind. It was so light and fluffy, and the flavor was spot-on. I'll definitely be making this again.

I made the mistake of not whisking the sauce constantly, and it ended up curdling. But I was able to save it by adding a little bit of cold water and whisking vigorously. Phew!

I love how this recipe uses lemon juice instead of vinegar. It gives the sauce a lovely brightness and acidity that really lifts the dish.
