There’s always something delicious being cooked up at Clarke’s Test Kitchen. On the heels of Chef Brittany Williams’ Spring Bruch recommendations, we decided to offer you a recipe and details for a Spiced Up Holandaise Sauce created by Stephanie, Clarke’s Johnson & Wales Culinary Intern.
Secret Ingredient: Wolf Gourmet Blender
A main ingredient in the recipe is the new Wolf Gourmet Blender, which is available through many of Clarke’s retail dealers and online here.
Stephanie’s Spiced-up Hollandaise Sauce
This hollandaise is not your typical recipe. The Wolf Gourmet Blender makes this hollandaise super quick and easy to whip up even for a weekday breakfast! With the addition of flavorful Old Bay Seasoning, a kick from cayenne and a fun added texture of poppy seeds; will definitely have your guests saying “mmm what’s your secret?” This is also a great recipe to add to a crab or even lobster eggs Benedict. With Wolf, you don’t need a special occasion.
- 1 small shallot, minced, about 3 tablespoons
- ¼- ½ teaspoon cayenne, depending on your taste
- ½ teaspoon old bay
- 4 large egg yolks
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 12 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- Salt to taste
In the Wolf Gourmet Blender, combine shallots, cayenne pepper, old bay, egg yolks and lemon juice. Blend on medium speed until combined and the mixture turns into a pale yellow. Remove top part of blender cap. With blender running on low speed, pour melted butter into clear reservoir; this will allow the butter to slowly drizzle into the egg mixture. Once all butter has been added, gradually increase speed to medium-high and blend for a few seconds until thickened and creamy. Stir in poppy seeds and salt to taste. You can also add a bit more cayenne pepper for some added heat.
