Nothing speaks weekend brunch like a Eggs Benedict with a good homemade Hollandaise Sauce - yum!

This one features Olive the Best Butter Olive Oil (no butter but botanicals that give it the flavour) and if you want to ramp it up more in flavour add a little Olive the Best Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic to the sauce! Delightful
