Chef's Notes
Hollandaise is a notoriously dramatic creature. If your butter is too hot when you add it to the blender, it will scramble your eggs instantly and turn your sauce into lumpy sadness. Keep that butter warm, not boiling!
Pro Tip
If you are terrified of poaching eggs in open water, create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water with a spoon right before dropping the egg in. The centrifugal force wraps the whites neatly around the yolk like a tailored royal cloak.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
The most tragic rookie error is blasting your blender on high speed while pouring boiling-hot butter into it without a vented lid, resulting in a yellow explosion that redecorates your entire kitchen ceiling in hollandaise shrapnel.

My butler attempted to poach an egg and accidentally invented a new form of modern art that ruined my antique stovetop.
The Culinary Science
Hollandaise is an emulsion, which means forcing two enemies (fat and water) to live together in harmony. The lecithin found naturally in egg yolks acts as the ultimate diplomatic mediator, binding the melted butter and lemon juice together into a velvety marvel.
