To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have eggs benedict using 14 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Eggs Benedict:
- Take For the Hollandaise sauce
- Get 4 egg yolk
- Take 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- Take 1/2 C. Unsalted butter (1stick)
- Prepare Pinch cayenne
- Prepare Pinch salt
- Take For the Eggs Benedict
- Prepare 8 slices Canadian bacon or ham
- Take 4 split English muffins or bagels (I use everything bagels)
- Get 2 tsp white vinegar
- Take 8 eggs or egg whites (I use egg whites)
- Prepare Salt and pepper for taste
- Make ready Hollandaise sauce from above
- Get Fresh chopped parsley
Instructions to make Eggs Benedict:
- Start with the Hollandaise sauce. Vigorously whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a stainless steel bowl and until the mixture is thickened and doubled in volume..
- Place the bowl over a saucepan containing barely simmering water (or use a double boiler,) the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl.
- Continue to whisk rapidly. Be careful not to let the eggs get too hot or they will scramble.
- Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and continue to whisk until the sauce is thickened and doubled in volume.
- Remove from heat, whisk in cayenne and salt.
- Cover and place in a warm spot until ready to use for the eggs benedict. If the sauce gets too thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water before serving.
- Now for the eggs Benedict.Brown the Canadian bacon in a medium skillet and toast the English muffins or bagels.
- Fill a 10-inch nonstick skillet half full of water. Add white vinegar to the cooking water. This will make the egg white cook faster so it does not spread. Bring to a slow boil. Gently break 1 of the eggs into the water taking care not to break it. Repeat with remaining eggs. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook 3 1/2 minutes until the egg white is set and yolk remains soft. Remove with a slotted spoon, allowing the egg to drain
- To assemble: Lay a slice of Canadian bacon on top of each muffin half, followed by a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon hollandaise sauce over the eggs. Garnish with chopped parsley.
- Note: 1 whole muffin or bagel is 1 serving but I usually only use 1/2 of a muffin or bagel per serving for fewer calories and it is still filling. That's why it says 4-8 people
