This has become my go to recipe for hollandaise sauce! So good and easyReply
I am going to try this hollandaise sauce x
How long does it keep in the fridge? Does it split like an egg based hollandaise?Reply

Hi Maleena! I have always used this sauce right away so I can’t say for sure how well it holds up in the fridge.

Were you successful making it ahead? I am hoping to make it and store it overnight and then heat it up the next morning. I would love to know if it worked
Vernita
Hi There. Do you have to use cayenne pepper sauce? Is there an alternative or can this be omitted altogether?

Hi Vernita ~ Yes, the flavor will be just slightly milder but you can absolutely leave out the cayenne pepper sauce.😊
