This Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce is a rendition of the original French version.  Once called Dutch sauce, Hollandaise sauce is an emulsion of egg yolks, melted butter, and lemon juice.  Some chefs add Dijon mustard for zesty appeal. Others prefer lime to lemon juice for a slightly different taste.

You can enjoy Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce in a variety of ways, such as:

• Over broccoli
• Over asparagus
• Drizzled over poached salmon (add dill or tarragon)
• Over Eggs Benedict
• Over chicken breasts (add morel mushrooms to the sauce)
• On French toast
• In Crab Imperial (instead of using mayo)

Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise sauce can also be a base ingredient for other sauces like:

• Béarnaise sauce: Hollandaise Sauce with white wine, tarragon, vinegar, and peppercorns.

• Charon Sauce: This is a tomato spiked Hollandaise Sauce. Made of Hollandaise sauce plus fresh tarragon and tomato paste (or purée). Can be served over steak, eggs, chicken, or vegetables.

• Foyot Sauce: Make the Béarnaise sauce from the Hollandaise sauce and added glacé de viande (reduced brown stock) to serve over steak

• Maltaise Sauce: This is a blood orange Hollandaise sauce (juice and rind of blood oranges). Can be served in Eggs Florentine or Eggs Benedict or over asparagus.

WHAT IS A QUICK WAY TO PREPARE KETO LOW-CARB HOLLANDAISE SAUCE?

To prepare your Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce here are the following steps:

2. Combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper into a high-powered blender and blend for 5 seconds.

4. Pour the sauce into a small bowl and drizzle over your meal!

HOW DO YOU FIX BROKEN KETO LOW-CARB HOLLANDAISE SAUCE?

The key to making a successful Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce is hot butter!

In making this sauce the hot butter is emulsified into the egg yolks and lemon juice. The butter must be hot and added in a steady stream. If the butter is not hot enough or added in this steady stream, the sauce can separate. If this happens, no need to worry. You can slowly add boiling water, whisking constantly to get the right consistency.  Or try adding an extra egg yolk.

While the blender is going (or you are whisking), add the yolk plus a teaspoon of boiling water to the blender until the sauce is creamy.

WHAT IS THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF KETO LOW-CARB HOLLANDAISE SAUCE?

I remember the ‘fat free’ 90s when egg yolks were considered the bad guys.  Well, not anymore.  Egg yolks are super healthy, especially when following a Keto lifestyle or diet.

WHAT IS THE TASTE PROFILE OF KETO LOW-CARB HOLLANDAISE SAUCE?

This is a rich and creamy Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce with a hint of tanginess from the lemon.

WHAT WINE HARMONIZES WITH KETO LOW-CARB HOLLANDAISE SAUCE?

This rich, creamy Keto Low-Carb Hollandaise Sauce is the ideal partner for big, buttery white wines like some Chardonnay or Viognier.  The wine’s creaminess will partner well with the creaminess of this sauce.  The wine’s acidity will also nicely sing with the slight tanginess of the sauce from the fresh lemon.

*Wine Tips: To support your Keto diet or low-carb lifestyle, choose low-carb, low-sugar, and low-alcohol wines that are free of additives and artificial coloring.  Include your wine carb macros as part of your meal.  Remember, your liver will process alcohol before nutrients, pausing ketone creation and slowing the ketosis process. Your body will also metabolize alcohol as fuel before using food. This can slow fat burning and may cause your body to store carbs, fat, and protein as excess body fat.  Alcohol consumption also stimulates the appetite.  So, drink low-sugar, low-carb, and low alcohol wines in moderation.
