Hollandaise Made in the Microwave

Ingredients

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/4 lemon juiced
  • pinch cayenne
  • 1/4 c. salted butter melted (use a pinch of salt if you are using unsalted butter)

Instructions

  1. Whisk the egg yolks in a microwave safe container for a minute or so then add in the lemon juice, cayenne and salt. Slowly stream in the melted butter to incorporate. Microwave for 15-20 seconds. Remove and whisk until thick and smooth.  If it starts to curdle, add in a teaspoon or so of cold butter and it will smooth back out.
