Hollandaise sauce (fischer)

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice; (4 to 6)
1 cup Low-salt chicken broth; defatted
½ cup Egg substitute
½ teaspoon Flour
1 tablespoon Margarine
Salt; optional
White pepper; freshly ground

Directions

Notes: Use this over vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, or green beans; as a dip for artichokes; over (substitute) eggs Benedict; and with many other foods. Egg substitutes are pasteurized, so unlike the usual Hollandaise, this is a safe sauce. The sauce will freeze and reheat.

Keep up to 2 days.

In a small nonstick saucepan over high heat, heat the lemon juice and stock to boiling. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 4 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small nonstick saucepan over low heat, whisk together the egg substitute and flour until frothy, about 30 seconds. Gradually whisk the hot broth into the egg mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, and cook, whisking constantly, for about 4 minutes, until the sauce thickens.

Increase the heat to medium low and whisk in the margarine. Add the salt, if using, and pepper and continue whisking a few minutes until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Makes about 1-½ cups.
