Jostheun's Weblog Recipes to Enjoy!

I am going to rock out this New Year – you will see changes in my Blog – I am going to start blogging more on the food and conversations that I make:   My hope is that I will get more people involved and that will want to share recipes and stories.

A big part of my life involves food and the love of enjoying it with friends and family.  Share your stories with me, take this journey with me.

This morning I woke up and made eggs and toast with hollandaise sauce – mind you this was the first time that I tried hollandaise!  It was awesome, my partner and I both ate everything up!  He had never had homemade hollandaise and really isn’t too crazy about eggs – but he ate everything and said he really like the sauce!

So try it out and let me know what you think, share your story with me – I know there are others that like food, get bored and just want to try something new.

My sauce was:

Half stick of butter
1 tspn white vinegar
1 tspn lemon juice – fresh
salt and pepper to taste
4 eggs yolks only
1 tspn sugar

Whip the egg yokes with the vinegar, salt and pepper.

Melt the butter in a bowl over a pan of hot water – due not put the butter bowl on direct heat, when you add the egg yolk it will cause them to scramble.

When the butter is melted, add the lemon and sugar.

Then add the egg yolk mixture slowly, mixing at the same time with a spoon until all egg yolks are in.

The egg should cook immediately as the heat is already hot enough to melt the butter. Only mix in until the egg yolk is the same color as the butter. The mixture is ready. Add over your cooked eggs on toast, how ever you like them – sunny side up, hard cooked or boiled and slice…..it really is good!

“We didn’t have ham or I would have added a ham slice to the side! YUM!
