Hollandaise

Me and my partner, Michelle, decided to take on the challenge of making hollandaise sauce. We were not successful at all in the making of it. While mise en placing, we put our water in a pot to boil on the stove. After doing that we added egg yolks, water, and lemon juice into the bowl on top of the boiling water as the recipe directed. After a few seconds of whisking, we noticed our eggs were starting to cook and I tried to hurry and turn the fire down. By then, it was too late. We had the heat up too high so the eggs started to cook too fast. Next time, we will not put the fire on low and watch it carefully. Making hollandaise was not as easy as I thought it was going to be.
Fun Fact: Structurally it is both an emulsion and a foam.
