Vegan Hollandaise Sauce
The traditional version of this sauce ingredients are egg yolks, lemon juice, water, salt, and butter. It’s an emulsion that can be tricky to master. Fortunately, the vegan version is just as (if not more) tasty, fool proof (no tricks to master) and adds an elegant touch to any meal.
