Things that just make absolutely no sense to make unless you're making it for at least 2 or more people.

It's not that hard to toast a muffin and poach an egg, and you know you can make hollandaise in the blender in seconds... right?

That covers a lot of foods if you don't like leftovers.

Being alone, cooking a christmas feast then eating in from your lap, watching youtube then drinking yourself to sleep.

Hollandays goes good on sandwhichs, meats, and other foods.

I've never made it though. Is it hard? Do I need lots of eggs?

You need atleast 3 eggs for just the sauce which is quite a few eggs for a dish that requires more eggs after and even then its barely enough liquid for the blender. After its made its way more sauce than you need for a personal serving and it doesn't keep at all.

what? the egg yolks are like the only thing that have a fixed unit quantity. meaning you need a minimum of 1.

The issue OP is stating about the hollandaise isn't the effort, but the fact that the sauce even made with a single 1 egg, but makes about 1 cup from that single egg yolk.

Oh no no no. It's the same. Using a whisk with your arm is the same as electric. Eric Ripert approved.

and MPW approves of knorr stock pots, that doesnt mean its what they use in their restaurants and that you dont get much better results cooking the eggs over an open flame or double boiler then adding the clarified butter than butting raw eggs in a blender and adding melted butter

not to mention the recipe doesnt even have a vinegar reduction and adds the lemon juice with the eggs instead of at the end

I'd give my left nut for some Eggs Benedict right now.....

MPW uses knorr as a seasoning, not as a replacement for stock. Not the same thing.

>MPW
whoever that is, is probably some poor guy from a poor background, let's say, from england, who didn't graduate from school, or any cooking school, and rather than work as a business professional and be respected by other chefs, he's lazily doing celebrity endorsements instead. Am I right? How close am I?

Whoever this is, I suggest you take him down off the pedestal. Any chef that gets on TV to sell crap chefs wouldn't recommend should be outed, not praised. You like a dumbwit.

And, how dare you compare him to Eric Ripert, who incidentally does make blender hollandaise in his own home.
