REVIEW
Really fast and easy Hollandaise sauce. I would increase the lemon to 3 tsp and omit the salt unless using unsalted butter. Overall an excellent, easy recipe to use when you crave that rich creamy taste of Hollandaise. We whipped it up to serve over our leftover garlic french bread topped with poached eggs. We then put crumbled bacon on top. It was a rich and tasty treat for a special occasion.
