Made this for my veggie version of eggs benedick and it was great! I did cut it down to only 1 stick of butter and just a touch more cayenne but made it the same way and it was great! Will definitely make this one again.

This sauce recipe is great, quick, & easy. I love eggs benedict, so I've tried numerous hollandaise recipes. The texture & consistency of this one come out perfect ever time! For my taste, it could use a little more salt ...so I add an extra pinch or two; however, that is always such a personal preference. FYI, the lemon juice is noticable in the finshed sauce. It's not overpowering by any means, but the suddle flavor is there. If you lke that, as I do, then great. If not, then you should reduce the lemon some. Hope this is helpful.

Fairly quick and pretty tasty. To a beginner it would probably kill your arm, but I survived. I loved the cayanne, it was a nice addition. I think there was a bit too much lemon in it though. Will probably back it down to 1 tsp next time. A great sauce for budding cook.

However I had to add some seasoning to it. Mainly butter tasting so I added some garlic, lemon pepper & more lemon juice. Also cooked a little longer. Was good though. Great for the first time!

Made this hollandaise recipe for lunch today, and while it was good, I don't think I'll be making it again. I prefer a more-eggy, less-buttery sauce. This one is definitely strong on the butter.

The tactic of cutting up cold butter to add is probably smart if you're not comfortable making hollandaise - the melting of the butter will naturally regulate the speed at which it can be incorporated. But if you've done it before, it's easier to just melt the butter and be done with it.

My first foray into the magical land of hollandaise. Thank you very much Mr. Brown.

Easy to make although a bit exhausting to my uninitiated whisking arm.

I forgot to add the sugar and I didn't have any cayenne pepper on hand but it still turned out fantastic.

Now, since I didn't have a target meal for the heavenly hollaindaise and I didn't want to waste any, I quickly sauteed some leftover zucchini and drizzled sauce along the top- it was great! Then I smothered a fried egg on home made toast- it was great! Then- getting a bit desperate for something quick cooking- I smothered a microwave burrito- it was great too! AND THEN- recalling Alton's confession that he TOO eats hollandaise right out of the bowl- ate the remainder just like soup- it was great!

Thanks Alton!

My eggs scrambled on my first try because I stopped stirring for 30 seconds, but I didn't make the same mistake twice. The sauce had a great flavor, consistency, and just a bit of a tang! Much better than what I have had at some restaurants. I have never been disappointed by one of Alton's recipes!
