Curried Hollandaise

 

1-1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter

5 large egg yolks

2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 Tablespoons dry white wine

2 dashes of Tabasco pepper sauce or to taste

1 teaspoon curry powder, or to taste

Make the curried Hollandaise: In a small saucepan heat butter over moderate heat until it is melted and foamy, but do not let it brown. In a blender put yolks, lemon juice, wine, a pinch of salt, and Tabasco and turn machine on and immediately off. With the machine at low speed, add the butter in a stream. Cover the blender, increase the speed to high and blend the mixture for 1 minute. Add curry powder and blend Hollandaise well.

There's a difference between beauty and charm. A beautiful woman is one I notice. A charming woman is one who notices me.
