💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Mix egg yolks with butter at room temperature (68-72°F) to create proper emulsification - cold ingredients will result in a grainy, separated sauce instead of smooth creaminess.technique68-72°F
- ✓Use full-fat dahi (Greek yogurt) with 10-15% fat content because the fat molecules help stabilize the sauce and prevent it from becoming watery when mixed with lemon juice.ingredient10-15% fat content
- ✓Add lemon juice last and limit to 1-2 teaspoons maximum, as the acid will begin denaturing the proteins in the yogurt and egg yolks, potentially causing curdling after 10-15 minutes.timing1-2 teaspoons, 10-15 minutes
- ✓Toast bread to an internal temperature of 180-200°F to create a moisture barrier that prevents the yogurt-based sauce from making the bread soggy within 5 minutes of assembly.equipment180-200°F
- ✓Chop egg whites into 1/4-inch pieces rather than mashing them, as larger pieces retain their protein structure better and provide textural contrast against the creamy yolk sauce.technique1/4-inch pieces
