On-the-Run Egg Yolk Sauce | Recipe Hub 97

 On-the-Run Egg Yolk Sauce

An on-the-run egg yolk sauce is a quick and versatile sauce that can be used to enhance various dishes such as vegetables, meats, and breakfast items. Here’s a simple recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional for added flavor)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and kept warm
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: finely chopped herbs (such as chives, parsley, or tarragon) for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients:

    • Separate the egg yolks from the whites. Save the whites for another use.
    • Melt the butter and keep it warm but not too hot.
  2. Whisk the Egg Yolks:

    • In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard (if using) until well combined.
  3. Set Up a Double Boiler:

    • Fill a pot with a few inches of water and bring it to a simmer. Place the bowl with the egg yolk mixture over the pot, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water.
  4. Cook the Sauce:

    • Continuously whisk the egg yolk mixture over the simmering water. Gradually drizzle in the warm melted butter while whisking constantly. The sauce should thicken and become creamy.
  5. Season and Serve:

    • Once the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
    • Optionally, stir in finely chopped herbs for added flavor and color.
  6. Serve Immediately:

    • Serve the egg yolk sauce warm over your favorite dishes.

Tips:

  • Temperature Control: Be careful not to overheat the egg yolks, as they can scramble. Whisk continuously and keep the heat low.
  • Consistency: Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding a little warm water if it becomes too thick.
  • Flavor Variations: Customize the flavor by adding different herbs, spices, or even a touch of hot sauce for a bit of heat.

This on-the-run egg yolk sauce is rich, creamy, and perfect for elevating a variety of dishes with minimal effort. Enjoy!
