Couples Hollandaise

Here's a quick and fun classic Hollandaise sauce recipe adapted for two. Hollandaise sauce is great on fish and chicken, and is usually tough to make, but with two people, things are much simpler.

Ingredients:
3 egg yolks
4 T. boiling water
1/2 c. melted butter
1 1/2 tsp. lemon juice
pinch salt
pinch cayenne
A couple (one to add ingredients, and one to keep whisking)

Heat water in a double boiler to hot, but not boiling. Add the egg yolks and stir with a whisk until they begin to thicken. Add one T boiling water, stir until they begin to thicken, and repeat this process until the 3 remaining T boiling water are used up. Add the lemon juice, remove from heat and whisk in the butter. Finally, add the salt and cayenne and serve immediately. Enjoy with your partner!
