Ingredients
  

Eggs Benedict Ingredients
  • 8 large eggs
  • 4 slices Canadian bacon
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh chives for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • saucepan
  • skillet
  • whisk
  • slotted spoon

Method
 

  1. Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice in a separate bowl. Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the egg yolk mixture while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Fill a large saucepan with water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Add white vinegar to the water. Crack each egg into a small bowl and carefully slide them into the simmering water. Cook the eggs for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are runny. Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs and let them drain.
  3. Lightly brown the Canadian bacon in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side. On each plate, place a slice of the browned Canadian bacon, then gently place a poached egg on top. Drizzle the hollandaise sauce over the egg and sprinkle with chopped chives.
