Just say NO! to blender Hollandaise, mock Hollandaise, and all those other abominations. There is Hollandaise, period. This isn't hard to make and takes all of five minutes, although if you've never done it, you do need to be careful (I haven't used a double boiler in years, and I have never had a sauce break on me).

Ingredients
- 1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, cut into thirds shopping list
- 1/2 T. lemon juice or vinegar shopping list
- 2 egg yolks shopping list
- 1/4 t. salt shopping list
How to make it
- If you've never done this before, use a double boiler. Beat the egg yolks over simmering water until lemon yellow. Add one of the butter pieces, and whisk constantly until the butter melts. Add the second piece, again whisking constantly; the sauce should begin to emulsify. When the butter is melted, add the third piece and repeat. Whisk in the lemon juice (or vinegar) and salt, and serve immediately.
