"In this quick hollandaise, I marry favorite spring essentials: The classic creamy Hollandaise that’s an asparagus season star and wild garlic with its bold, aromatic flavor. I try to make the most of the short wild garlic season every year, so I use it in almost everything—so why not in hollandaise? Its rich, buttery base is the perfect canvas for this vibrant addition. And don’t worry—I promise this hollandaise is foolproof! The secret starts with the ingredients: Make sure the eggs are room temperature. If you’re using small eggs, it’s best to add one extra yolk beyond what the recipe calls for. I also skip clarified butter (ghee) and just use regular unsalted butter. Just be sure to pour in all of the butter—including the separated milk solids! They help make the sauce lighter while giving it that perfectly thick yet pourable consistency. The rest is easy: Stir in the chopped wild garlic, and you're good to go! Trust me—you’ll never want to make hollandaise any other way again."

Step 1/2

To make the Hollandaise sauce, separate egg yolks from whites. Place yolks in a small bowl and save egg whites for another use. Melt butter in a saucepan, making sure it doesn’t brown. In a tall container, mix together egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, a pinch of sugar, and pepper with an immersion blender.

Slowly pour the warm, melted butter into the egg mixture while continuously blending everything. Once all the butter is incorporated, the sauce should be thick, light, and smooth. Add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. Finally chop fresh wild garlic and stir it into the Hollandaise along with some mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
