Number Of Ingredients 9

17 tablespoons (2 sticks plus 1 tablespoon) unsalted butter
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon white peppercorns, crushed
4 large egg yolks
Coarse salt
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon English mustard powder
1 tablespoon cold water
1 tablespoon freshly grated horseradish

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; slowly bring to a boil, skimming froth from surface. Carefully pour melted butter into a small bowl, holding back the milky sediment in the bottom of the pan. The clarified butter should be the color of light olive oil; let cool to room temperature.
  • In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, mix vinegar together with 1/4 cup cold water and crushed peppercorns. Place over medium-high heat until liquid is reduced by one-third; remove from heat and let cool completely. Add egg yolks to cooled reduction and whisk to combine.
  • Place saucepan on a heat diffuser over very low heat; whisk, making sure the whisk comes in contact with the bottom of the pan. Gradually increase heat whisking, so the sauce emulsifies progressively and becomes smooth and creamy, 8 to 10 minutes; do not let the temperature of the sauce rise above 150 degrees.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and whisk in clarified butter in a slow, steady stream; season with salt. Stir in lemon. Line a chinois or fine mesh strainer with cheesecloth; strain mixture and discard solids. Mix together mustard powder and water; stir into hollandaise sauce along with horseradish. Use sauce immediately.

I'm not a huge fan of hollandaise sauce, but this one was surprisingly good. It had a nice tang and wasn't too heavy.

The sauce was a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding a little more butter.

The sauce was delicious, but it was a little too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding a little more milk or water to thin it out.
