Stumbled over another of your older videos today. I use Knorr sauce powder - which is obviously different to Schwarz and available everywhere in Germany. Supposed to make 250 ml sauce, you mix the powder with only 125 ml water. The powder contains a mix of starch and egg powder and also lemon powder. After the powder dissolved you heat it up and then you slowly add in 125g of butter (can be in small cubes, does not need to be melted). Just not too much at a time. Usually I will wait until the amount I added has melted and integrated into the sauce before I add more. It is hard to break but I managed already when I was too hasty. So you don't have to deal with fresh egg, it is still less effort than making fresh Hollandaise (more than Schwarz though), and usually will come out well without breaking the emulsion. In the end you have a thick and yellowish Hollandaise with egg and butter. Okay, some starch as well. If these in the video are "fake hollandaise" I'd call the Knorr "supported hollandaise" because it contains what it is supposed to plus starch as some kind of stabilizing agent. And, if 250 ml is too much, I can just split up the content of the bag and make half or a third (35g powder inside, so 17-18g or 12 g powder with accordingly reduced water and butter) and close the bag with a clip for use in the next few days. Like in spring I might make Eggs Benedict on Sunday and somewhen under the week - it's cheaper than on weekends when everyone wants to have it - get some asparagus and make the rest. Dry egg can be stored some days in a bag ripped open and immediately closed again with a good clip.

1:30 - Handy way to measure liquids without using a measuring jug (i.e. without creating more washing up) is to put the pot/mixing bowl/cup on kitchen scales, tare it, and measure the weight as you pour it in. Super simple for water and milk where 1ml ~ 1g. For other liquids, you can get the required weight in grams by volume (ml) * density (g/ml). Honey has density ~1.4g/ml so 100ml honey weighs 140g. Vegetable oil is ~0.9g/ml. I love any sort of trick to save myself washing up!

Half a pint is more like 270ml which is more like 250 when using pouches of sauces

Hello. I think when you made the sauce you said “add half a cup of milk” but then added 300 ml? In Canada one cup is 250 ml. So half a cup should be 125 ml.. here anyways. I have tried these hollandaise sachets in Canada and they are delicious. Love your channel! 🇨🇦

He said half a pint. I know, it's weird to Canadians/Americans to hear that. We would normally say 1 cup. Also, because of the difference of the Imperial gallon and the US customary unit gallon, the cups are different too. So, a UK cup is 285ml (close enough to 300ml), and a US cup is 237ml (close enough to 250ml). Buuuuut I've heard that sometimes it's the case in Canada? A 12oz can of drink in the US is 355ml but is 341ml in Canada?

I'm envious of your poached eggs, you seem to get them perfect (nearly) every time! Perhaps a perfect poached egg lesson video is called for? Were the eggs shop bought? As you said, they looked REALLY fresh.

I really love and enjoy all of your content, the variety, uniqueness, thoughtfulness of it but I absolutely cannot stomach hollandaise sauce. 😆🤢 Good luck!

I can make eggs benedict in about ten minutes with real, fresh, hollindaise. You can make real hollindaise with an immersion blender in a couple minutes and you can poach an egg in the microwave. (Just one at a time. A glass pyrex cup sized measuring cup, filled with half a cup of room temperature water. Crack in an egg carefully Microwave time depends on your microwave but it's 50 seconds in mine, which is 1100 watts.) Toasted English muffin and microwaved ham lunch meat (I prefer thin ham slices, easier to cut.) 10 minutes. Eggs benedict.

You can't replace a good hollandaise and if you're somewhat careful it's really not that hard to make either. Get a good electronic thermometer, eggs start "coagulating at 65C so that's when you need to start paying attention, don't go over 80. These cheats often make it harder than it actually is. Even if it goes wrong and your sauce is broken, you can still fix it. It is really not as hard as people say it is.
