Hollandaise Sauce
« on: May 16, 2009, 07:59:58 am »
Not really a Jam or Chutney, but better here than elsewhere.  From here originally - http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=957.msg5588#msg5588

Quoting vivacity:

I made my first EVER hollandaise sauce yesterday in the TM using the German TM cookery book and it was a shock how quickly it was made and how good it tasted. I don't know if it's the same as the version in the English TM books but here is the recipe just in case:

4 egg yolks
100g butter
80 g cream
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/4 - 1/2 tsp salt
10-15 ml lemon juice

Put all the ingredients in the mixing bowl and cook for 6 mins/80C/speed 4. Pour sauce into a cold jug/bowl after cooking to stop it from becoming scrambled eggs. I thought the sauce wouldn't thicken during the first few minutes but by the time cooking was over, the sauce had a wonderful consistency and yes, I was almost disappointed at how easy it was to make it. Weird, but true.

Made a note of this.
Did you use the butterfly?

LOL no idea, just the edc recipe says to use it and I noticed when adding this one to the book.
Great if you don't as I ALWAYS forget the butterfly, can have it out leaning against the tmx and still somehow not put it in, lol.

I have done the EDC one and followed it all except I watched it carefully and it was done in about 5 mins if I remember correctly. I'm pretty sure there is a review on here and that's where I got the idea. It was my second try, 1st time I overcooked and it curdled. Here's a tip... If you have any left and want to use it the next day, don't put it on high in the microwave, it's nasty!!

Will be trying this one tomorrow as hubby wants it and I have leftover egg yolks to use up. How much should 4 egg yolks weigh as I have them all together?

Put it in a zip lock top bag and submerge in warm tap water. If you have it use the sous vide. Reheats nice w/o separating.

I have often made the recipe from the UK's Fast and Easy Cooking book and have always had success. Tips from there: if your sauce does split, remove the butterfly then add an ice cube and bland 30 seconds at speed 8 to re-emulsify. Another tip is that Hollandaise sauce can be held for up to one hour at 60° C speed 2 until you're ready to serve it.
If music be the food of love, play a tune on your Thermomix for your loved ones.
