March Recipe: Grandma Winbigler’s Hollandaise Sauce

The Amish Originals recipe of the month is near and dear to our hearts!  Served with steak, vegetables, eggs and more, Hollandaise Sauce is a decadent, guilty-pleasure accompaniment for a variety of meals.  This month’s recipe comes from Grandma Winbigler who, like many of her generation, made things from scratch and was not afraid to use the butter generously!

 

 

 

Ingredients

3 eggs yolks

3 tbsp. lemon juice

½ c. cold butter

Directions

Combine the egg yolks and lemon juice and transfer the mixture to a double boiler.  Add ¼ cup butter to the mixture and cook over low heat.

When the butter is fully melted, add the remaining ¼ cup butter and stir well until the sauce thickens.
