Hollandaise sauce is a rich, creamy condiment made from simple ingredients: egg yolks, clarified butter, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. This classic French sauce is well known for its role in dishes like Eggs Benedict or as a topper for steamed vegetables, especially asparagus. Its origins trace back to 17th-century French cuisine, where it became a staple due to its luxurious texture and bright, tangy flavor. While hollandaise offers a decent amount of fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin A, it is also high in saturated fat and calories due to its butter content, making it best enjoyed in moderation. For those watching their intake, small servings can still provide the rich flavor without overindulging. Whether served savory or paired with a light meal, hollandaise sauce remains a testament to the indulgence of gourmet cooking while prompting mindful consumption.
