Maltaise Sauce Recipe

The Maltaise Sauce is a classic sauce made by adding the juice of blood oranges to a basic Hollandaise sauce. It's tangy, and a little bit sweeter than a regular Hollandaise.

The Maltaise sauce is traditionally served with asparagus or broccoli.

Now, blood oranges, which will give a more distinctive color to the sauce, can be hard to find. They're typically in peak season during the winter months. So if you can't get your hands on any, you can substitute regular oranges.

Ingredients

Steps to Make It

  1. Add the orange juice and orange zest to 1 pint Hollandaise sauce. Serve right away.
