FAQs
Can I make the hollandaise sauce ahead of time?
Yes, you can make hollandaise sauce in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just be sure to reheat it gently before serving, as it can separate when cold.
Can I use fresh potatoes instead of frozen?
Absolutely! You can cut fresh potatoes into fries or tots. Just make sure to season and cook them until they’ve reached a crispy texture.
