    Add the oil in a thin, slow stream, while the blender is running, until a thick emulsion forms.
    ⚙ Fat in a Thin StreamBlender
    💡The thin stream is everything: fat that goes in too fast can't bind, and the sauce breaks. For mayonnaise and hollandaise, if this happens, start with a fresh yolk and slowly add the broken sauce to it; if the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water.
  3. 3
    Add the lemon juice and stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  4. 4
    Store in the fridge in a closed container, up to 5 days.
