McCormick Hollandaise Sauce Mix, 1.25 oz Packet

Let's face it. Hollandaise sauce in itself is a guilty pleasure. All those eggs, and butter... It's a tasty heart attack waiting for me, covering those healthy poached eggs. But who has time and the patience to make Hollandaise from scratch? Or if you have, who hasn't suffered the disappointment of it separating because you messed up some crucial step, or didn't serve it immediately. Enter the instant sauce mix which is a decent stand-in for less expert/patient cooks. Heck, it's even healthier than the scratch stuff, and safer, since you needn't worry about your eggs reaching a certain temperature to be safe to eat. AND it has the added bonus that if you don't use it up right away, it doesn't get super nasty. Great over eggs Benedict or variations thereof--my vegetarian husband prefers Florentine with spinach and mushrooms, and as a Muslim, I groove the smoked salmon type. Also a traditional favourite for serving with asparagus. For additional fun, add a touch of lemon juice and/or dill. Oh great. Now I'm drooling. I'm lucky I have a couple of packages of the sauce mix so satisfying this craving will be easy! #sweepstakes [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
