Perfect Eggs Benedict


Description

Indulge in a classic brunch favorite with perfectly poached eggs, savory Canadian bacon, and rich hollandaise sauce served on toasted English muffins.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 English muffins, split in half
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 slices Canadian bacon
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 cup hollandaise sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Begin by toasting the English muffins until golden brown.
  2. In a pan, cook the Canadian bacon over medium heat until warmed through.
  3. In a pot, bring water to a gentle simmer and add the vinegar.
  4. Crack each egg into the simmering water, poaching them for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set.
  5. To assemble, place one slice of bacon on each toasted muffin half, add a poached egg, and drizzle with hollandaise sauce.
  6. Season with salt and pepper, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For creamier hollandaise, whisk in a bit of hot water until desired consistency is reached. Use fresh eggs for better poaching results.
