A recipe from the cuisine, allowed in a / / / diet.

Hollandaise is one of the 5 mother sauces in French cuisine, alongside bechamel, veloute or espagnole. It is an emulsion of egg, butter, and lemon juice, and it is one of the main ingredients in Eggs Benedict (one of our favorite brunch delights). Sure, it's not the easiest recipe, but if you master it, you'll have yourself a terrific new sauce recipe.
