An easy, unintimidating sauce for asparagus, artichokes, broccoli, or whatever you like.
YIELD: 6 to 8 servings
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or Vege-Sal
- Dash of Tabasco
INSTRUCTIONS:
- You’ll need either a double boiler or a heat diffuser for this; it needs very gentle heat. If you’re using a double boiler, you want the water in the bottom hot, but not boiling. If you’re using a heat diffuser, use the lowest possible heat under the diffuser.
- Put all the ingredients in a heavy-bottomed saucepan or the top of a double boiler. Whisk everything together well, let it heat through, and serve it over vegetables.
PER SERVING:
- 2 grams of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 3 grams of protein.
