Real hollandaise is a bit of a tricky thing to make. It's much easier to make if you've got somebody else showing you. If you make it a few times, you'll get the hang of it. It takes me about 10 minutes in all.

Hollandaise sauce

1 egg yolk

1/2 teaspoon water

3 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled to barely warm

fresh lemon juice

Make this just before you need it.

First, you're going to need a bain-marie, an improvised double boiler. This will be a small stainless steel bowl that fits in a small pot you will fill with water and bring to a simmer. Put the egg yolk and water in the bowl, whisk, and set over the simmering water. Immediately lower the temperature to very low. If you have an electric stove you'll be better using two burners preset at the desired temperature. Continue whisking until the mixture begins to thicken slightly. Then slowly dribble in the melted butter, whisking, and continue to whisk until the sauce is almost as thick as mayonnaise. Immediately remove from over the hot water, add lemon juice to taste, and add salt if it needs more. Serve immediately. Serves 2.

I can't tolerate butter (too much casein) or margarine (corn, safflower etc intolerance). Can you make hollandaise with olive oil instead? It's my favourite sauch for fish and I really miss it.

Any oil will do but olive oil is a bit strong for the hollandaise taste ... I would try a very mild olive oil and perhaps 1/2 and 1/2 with grape-seed or a very light oil.

I usually use a cup inside a saucepan and keep an oven glove on and regulate the temp by taking it in/out of the just below boiling water... and I use the same trick as eKatherine with using 2 rings .... and I have to say its easier to watch someone than describe it, you don't need to whisk anywhere as hard as making mayo or aioli but you do need to keep it constantly moving... a proper pint glass (heat treated) is also a easy way becasue it sticks out making it easy to take it out of the water if it starts going too fast.

If it goes wrong ... you can put aside the mix and take another egg yolk and start again and then slowly add the stuff you put aside... its really not hard, just like riding a bike its just a knack but it is very practice/experience based.

The hollandaise is also a base for bearnaise and palaise ... for beef and lamb

You can make hollandaise from clarified butter. Gently heat it until all the water evaporates, then filter out the milk solids through a paper filter.

Unfortunately, I get sick even from clarified butter. I guess there is traces of casein left. I'll try the half mild olive oil/half grape seed. Gluten free etc has been good in that it has forced me to learn to cook.

I'm still pretty new at cooking (3 months) and this recipe looks ambitious - but hollandaise is SOOOO good that I'll give it a try.

Just keep in mind that if you make it with olive and/or other vegetable oils, it's going to be mayonnaise, not hollandaise. But on the plus side, if you're not using butter, you won't need to cook it. I suggest looking up a recipe for blender mayonnaise.

Yes, I haven't tried the olive/grapeseed mix... I am just guessing it will be very heavy with olive oil... mostly my mayo I make thick and 'olivy' but people who are used to commerical "mayo" perhaps find it over powering.

Its all a question of taste but in many cases I use a more vinegary or lemon mayo to serve with asparagus and parma for instance ... in these cases they are somewhat interchangable... and its really just a hot/cold question

The thing with mayo and hollandaise it they are actually really easy once you have the knack.... you just need to know when to add more oil/butter by feel. I wonder who first discovered this ... what were they trying to make at the time? I imagine some caveman with a egg yolk and some oil or butter thinking hmm... that would be nice...

I make my mayonnaise with pure olive oil, not extra virgin. Tastes great on asparagus, boiled eggs, tomatoes...

I experimented for you :D

Last night I had lamb with a paloise sauce (like a bearnaise but with mint instead of tarragon) and I used a light 100% sunflour oil (I did however pre-fry the shallots in butter) and it turned out great....

I think the trick is to use the Hollandaise variations like bearnaise to substitute the butter part so that the rest of the sauce makes up for the butter flavor.

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Celiac friendly probiotics

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
