Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Hollandaise Sauce image

My aunt makes the BEST eggs benedict for special occasions. My family cried at the prospect of never enjoying it again, hence this reconstruction. Use this with gluten-free english muffins, poached eggs, and ham or other tasty addition for your own adaptation. Note that both the lemon and the hot "butter" serve to generally cook the egg yolk. Be careful to drizzle the "butter" slowly to temper the sauce. If you overheat the yolks - either by pouring the "butter" too fast or keeping over heat too long - the yolks can curdle.

1 dash Tabasco sauce
4 ounces Earth Balance natural buttery spread, melted until bubbling hot
