Fennel Hollandaise Sauce Recipes

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Add egg yolks to a small saucepan; whisk until lemon yellow and slightly thick, about 1 minute. Whisk in lemon juice.
• Add 2 tablespoons cold butter, and place over very low heat. Whisk constantly while butter is melting, and continue whisking until thick enough to see the pan between strokes. Remove pan from heat, and beat in 1 tablespoon cold butter. Repeat. Whisk in melted butter a little bit at a time. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a stainless steel bowl set over a pot of simmering water (be careful not to let the bottom touch the water), whisk the egg yolks with the lemon juice, hot sauce, and water until pale yellow in color. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the bowl from the pot and, whisking vigorously, add the melted butter 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until all the butter is incorporated. Keep warm until needed.

LINGUINE WITH FENNEL AND MEAT SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring some water to boil in a covered pot for linguine.
• Slice a little off the bottom of the fennel, and trim the leaves and stems. Remove tough outer layer, and cut the fennel in quarters. Steam over hot water for about 7 minutes, until the fennel is tender.
• Heat a large nonstick pan until it is very hot. Reduce the heat to medium high, and brown the meat, stirring often to keep it from sticking to the pan and to break it up into little pieces.
• Chop the whole onion; push the beef to the side, and add the oil to the pan. Add the onion, and saute until it softens and begins to brown.
• Mince the garlic, and add to to the onion along with the caraway seeds, coriander, hot-pepper flakes, cloves and fennel, and stir well. Stir in the tomato puree with the bay leaf. Simmer over low heat until pasta is cooked.
• Cook the pasta according to package directions; drain, and serve with sauce after seasoning it with pepper.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Put the butter inside a heatproof bowl or glass measuring cup and set it in a basin of simmering water. Let it heat until the butter is melted.
• Carefully spoon off the white residue on top of the clear yellow liquid in the center. Carefully pour off and reserve the yellow liquid. Discard the milky bottom portion.
• Combine the egg yolks and water, beating rapidly with a wire whisk. Place the saucepan in a larger basin of simmering water, beating constantly. Gradually add the clear yellow liquid, beating constantly while heating the mixture in the simmering water. Do not overheat. Beat and heat until the sauce has the consistency of a thin mayonnaise.
• Add the salt, cayenne pepper and lemon juice and blend thoroughly.

HOLLANDAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, vigorously stir egg yolks and lemon juice with wire whisk. Add 1/4 cup of the butter. Heat over very low heat, stirring constantly with wire whisk, until butter is melted.
• Add remaining 1/4 cup butter. Continue stirring vigorously until butter is melted and sauce is thickened. (Be sure butter melts slowly so eggs have time to cook and thicken sauce without curdling.) If the sauce curdles (mixture begins to separate), add about 1 tablespoon boiling water and beat vigorously with wire whisk or hand beater until it's smooth.
• Serve immediately. Store covered in refrigerator. To serve refrigerated sauce, reheat over very low heat and stir in a small amount of water.
