Guilt-Free Creamy Sauce

Instructions:

Combine the Base: In a small, heatproof mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the non-fat natural yogurt until the mixture is smooth and evenly creamy.

Create a Double Boiler: Place the bowl over a saucepan filled with simmering water. Ensure that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. This is a gentle heating method often called a bain-marie or double boiler.

  1. Heat and Thicken: Continuously whisk the sauce over the gentle heat for up to 15 minutes, or until the mixture begins to noticeably thicken. Tip: If you’re making poached eggs, start
  2. cooking them around the 13-minute mark.
  3. Add Flavor: Once the sauce has thickened slightly, incorporate the white wine vinegar and lemon juice. Whisk thoroughly after each addition to fully combine.
  4. Season: Add salt and pepper to your liking, and give it one final whisk.
  5. Finish the Sauce: Continue whisking over the heat until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. It should be thick, smooth, and creamy—it shouldn’t easily drip or run off a spoon.
  6. + The sauce is now ready! Enjoy it immediately.
