Making Hollandaise Without Any Fancy Tools

I love the idea of hollandaise on top of eggs. Its like, would you like some eggs with your eggs?

I like to think that the camera in the cupboard is always recording, and you just open it up when you have a video idea

For those of you who want to make a smaller batch for 1 or 2 people, the easy ratio is 1 egg yolk per person and 20 grams of butter per egg yolk. I know this is different to the ratio used in the video but this is how its made quickly to order in fine restaurants. Light splash of lemon juice, season and serve. 3 minutes max

40k man... i cant believe it. you’re amazing man! you’ve become a huge inspiration for what i want to do with my life. I actually just got accepted into Johnson & Wales for Culinary with a $15,000 scholarship! thank you for teaching me a lot of new things & consistently keeping me interested in food

I eat hollandaise with everything I love the stuff. I poor it on my girls butt cheeks before I eat them. Great video and tutorial my guy.

Happy Hollandaise to you man 🌲

THANK YOU! The tip to use the cubed butter made a huge difference for me. I kept breaking my sauce with melted butter that was either too hot, or poured in too quickly. The cubed unmelted butter makes this impossible to mess up. Bless you.

I find hollandaise to be delicious with seafood such as lobster, crab, or shrimp. The citrus flavor and buttery richness makes the seafood taste so good.

Guys you have to make this recipe, I made it and mom broke her diet to eat it and she wanted more. It’s so good 10/10 recommended Thanks josh ❤️

You are my food saver. I wasted so many eggs and lots of butter, I failed to make hollandaise so many times, and finally I made it with your instructions. Thank you so much.

I have made this twice now. I love how easy it is with the cubes of butter. I think it will try it without the sugar next time though.

Do you think you could make a video talking about essential tools you need in your kitchen? I wanna start getting into cooking and also I’m moving soon but there’s so many things that I could get but it’s all very expensive. So if there’s a few essentials or some things that can be used multiple ways then a video explaining all the must haves to get started would be great also you’re videos are so damn amazing and I’ve literally binge watched everything and made as much of these things as possible hahah

Two years later I still swear by this method and everyone is always so impressed. Thank you for this! This is the best is now a family staple breakfast.

Thanks so much for making this so easy. I made this for my mum this morning and she couldn’t believe I made it myself.

That is by far the best hollandaise recipe in YouTube! The cold butter does the trick 🙌🏻

My hubby makes this incredible asparagus and I cannot eat it any other way now. And it’s so easy! he heats the asparagus in a sauté with a little bit of olive oil on medium to high heat, tossing it regularly with some seasoning until the asparagus is basically browned/toasted all around and it’s delicious. TRY IT! 🤤

I love this channel and Joshua's sauce is sublime. Keeping it thick means it will hold up a little better with the heat from the eggs and ham. Now, how about microwave hollandaise in less than five minutes? Hollandaise for two eggs benedict: one egg yolk, one third stick of room temperature butter, the juice of one quarter lemon, dash of cayenne, one quarter tsp of kosher salt in the bottom of a glass measuring cup. Mix with a fork, place in microwave, cook 20 seconds, stir, return to microwave and cook another twenty seconds, then five second intervals when you stir and return to microwave for a total of ten seconds. Stop. You have hollandaise sauce. For bearnaise; add one chopped shallot, one tbsp vinegar, and one tsp tarragon to glass measuring cup. Stir, cook on high for three to five minutes until reduced by half, add to doubled hollandaise recipe above. Stop. You have bearnaise sauce. And my work here is done.

You should make English muffins!

I would like to thank Mr Joshua for this foolproof method and recipe, it comes out perfectly without fail

I wish this tutorial would show the time he spends whisking, the egg consistency to the camera in each phase, and the exact fire or temperature of the bowl should be. My eggs came out creamy lumpy and the butter was surrounding the egg mixed with butter.
