-—————————————
INGREDIENTS
400g warm clarified butter
4 egg yolks
250g white wine vinegar
60g sliced shallots
¼ teaspoon white or black peppercorns
lemon
salt
-—————————————
METHOD
FOR THE REDUCTION:
Place vinegar, shallots and peppercorns in a small pan and reduce by a little more than half. Pass through a strainer and keep aside, there will be enough for a couple of batches.
FOR THE HOLLANDAISE:
Whisk egg yolks with 30ml of the vinegar reduction over a small pan of simmering water until they reach a ‘ribbon’ stage. Add 2 tbsp warm water and start whisking in the clarified butter until completely incorporated. Adjust seasoning to taste with salt, white pepper, and lemon juice. Add in more clarified butter or warm water if it starts getting too thick.
Keep in a thermos or somewhere warm with cling film or greaseproof touching the top. | Posted on 07/Feb/2023 12:55:00
