Expert tips
- Adjusting thickness: If you prefer a thinner sauce, you can add a little warm water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve the desired consistency. Alternatively, if you want a thicker sauce, simply reduce the amount of water added to the recipe.
- Seasoning balance: Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt, black pepper, or lemon juice to achieve the perfect balance of flavors that suits your palate.
- Immediate consumption: For the best taste and texture, serve the Hollandaise sauce immediately after preparation. However, if you need to hold it for a short period, place it in a thermos or a heatproof bowl over warm water to keep it warm and prevent it from cooling too quickly.
Storage
Transfer the leftover Hollandaise sauce to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
Top tip
To reheat the sauce, use gentle heat to avoid curdling. The best method is to place the container in a pan of hot water and stir the sauce slowly until it reaches the desired temperature. Avoid direct heat, as it can cause the sauce to separate.
FAQ
Can I make the Hollandaise sauce ahead of time?
While it is best to enjoy the Hollandaise sauce immediately after preparation, you can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for a short period, up to 2-3 days. Just keep in mind that the sauce may thicken slightly when refrigerated and will need gentle reheating to restore its desired consistency.
Can I freeze the Thermomix Hollandaise sauce?
It is not recommended to freeze the Hollandaise sauce, as it can lead to changes in texture and separation when reheated. It is best to enjoy the sauce freshly made or store it in the refrigerator for a short period.

Hi Lyndel! Thank you for your feedback! Were all the ingredients at room temperature? Sometimes if they are not all at room temperature it takes a little bit more time. Also, the consistency tends to thicken as the sauce cooldown. Thank you!
