Better than hollandaise 

16/11/2012

4 Comments

 
Asparagus are abundant at present and a delightful vegetable to enjoy.

In a previous life I considered myself a supreme hollandaise sauce creator.  Now I shudder to consider the eggs and butter that I combined with such patience and then slurped up with such unhealthy gusto.

Now I have created a plant based alternative, which gives me just as much pleasure but with none of the killer contents.

I put a cup of Cashew Cream into the blender and to this I add a 
  • 1 whole pealed orange
  • ½ a pealed lemon
  • 1 or 2 cloves of garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
I blend this for a couple of minutes, until it is creamy.

The mixture clings nicely to the asparagus, it takes so much less work to make and everyone enjoys this healthy alternative to Hollandaise.

Hi there, sounds good for hollandaise but I like egg and olive oil mayonnaise with my asparagus and everything else. Is there an alternative for that as well?

I can assure you that my sauce is as good as the real thing and when adding health to the equation, it is considerably better!!
