Easy Eggs Benedict Recipe

[@mariamitchell8437]

Just tried the recipe, we loved it. For a running egg boil for 3 min, for a medium 4 min, 5 min will give you a hard boiled egg

[@Earthy-Artist]

Tip:: to get your egg to stay together in the simmering water, stir the water before adding the egg to make a vortex. Then slide the egg into the center of the vortex so the spinning motion can keep your egg from spreading out. Looks delicious!!

Such great timing because I planned on surprising my husband with homemade eggs Benedict on Christmas morning.

[@shellshock10]

Quick question… Why do people only make eggs benedict for “special” days?

[@richardsrj64]

I love eggs benedict. When I make my hollandaise, I add some gruyere cheese and mustard to give it a little kick. It also makes it extra creamy and smooth. When I first met my husband, I made these at an impromptu brunch for some friends. I guess he was so impressed that he didn't get let go.

[@nicshu2171]

I add touch of French dijon (Maille brand)- it adds just the right amount of complexity and cuts the richness a a bit

[@nicshu2171]

I'll add gruyere next time- great idea!

[@Tellyawhat4]

I often make these on weekends. I add wilted spinach and use smoked paprika. The regular paprika doesn't have enough taste for me. As an aside, I've noticed in many of your videos that you often leave the handle of your pots and pans sticking outwards. This is dangerous. It's best you turn those handles away from where you can accidentally hit them or your boys can grab them. Love all your videos! You've given me so many useful tips and I love your passion and energy.

[@markofdistinction6094]

60ish years ago when I was growing up, we had an aluminum egg poacher. It was basically a double boiler, but the upper part was an aluminum tray with 4 spots just big enough to pour an egg into each cup. It worked beautifully. I wonder why these aren't available anymore.

[@centerbfd]

They are! They call them coddlers because coddling and poaching are technically different.

Hi John. Hi all. A little trick I do with Canadian Bacon is cut small slits, with my kitchen shears, all the way around. This keeps it from curling and it cooks evenly. I also do this with regular bacon, on the fattier sections, when pan frying. It'll lay flat. The slits disappear as it cooks.

[@veni.vidi.reliqui7946]

That is a great tip! I imagine that would work with almost any meat that tends to curl up while cooking! Thank you !!

[@texasstardust6010]

...I started making Eggs Benedict with " fluffy scrambled eggs, " when my daughters were in Jr.High School, they werent keen on the poached Eggs, lol... and all these years ( Decades, dare I say ...lol) later ... its my favourite way to make Eggs Benedict... with scrambled eggs... but they must be fluffy! I make my Hollandaise on the Stovetop, but I can appreciate this simple version. :)

[@187oshea]

I like to use a small strainer and strain the egg whites before poaching. Keeps it neater!

I love Eggs Benedict, too, and I also kind of associate it with vacations. I will occasionally order it though if I go for lunch with a few work friends. Eggs Benedict is always a treat. It’s SO good.

These are my favorite to order when we go out to breakfast. I've never attempted to make my own sauce. This looks so easy. I think I'll give it a try. Thanks for sharing.

[@melque_au]

I loved this recipe and I'd like to give a piece of advice. The first time I cooked it I followed the exactly what he said in every way, I just divided the ingrediets by 2, because it would be just for me and my partner and also used sourdough bread instead of muffins. It worked beautifully! My partner was mesmerized with the breakfast and he said it tasted better than the one we usually have in the cafe down the road. While I was cooking, I focused all the time in following the recipe step by step and used good ingredients. The second time I made it, I cooked even a smaller portion because it was just for myself, and I got the same beautiful result. But today (3rd attempt), I used a "Jumbo egg" (the extra extra large) and the egg white was more watery, I also used bottled lemon juice. Besides that, I was no focused in what I was doing because I was organizing other things in the kitchen. Well, this third time was completely messed up, the taste was horrible. It was very bitter because of the bottled lemon juice, so use squeeze a real lemon and make a lemonade with the rest of it. I didn't really enjoy my breakfast (I ate it, though 😂). Thus, if you guys are going to prepare this recipe, you need to have time on your hands, you need to focus in what you are doing, follow the steps and use good ingredients. It's definitely worth it. Thank you John! ❤

[@carilynjurgeson6178]

Excellent recipe. I made it and my husband loved it. I think next time I will use both cayenne and smoked paprika. First time I used cayenne only. I got a chunk of Kirkland smoked ham from Costco and sliced it up with a quick warm up in the air fryer. That was a good option.

Yea, the coming together at the end is the hardest part. Helps to have a hand. I watch a two min version for a basic b/c I do not have enough time for long videos, and then come here to Preppy Kitchen for the real deal recipe. Surprised seeing Hollandaise Sauce served at room temperature. Glad to have the recipe though I think I will figure out a way to heat mine up. Maybe set the bowl of it into a small tub of hot water to warm it up. Eggs ~ the most versatile food on the planet ~ no?

[@avatarwormette]

For a Hollandse sauce you need to use half a coffee spoon of water per egg yolk to make it lighter and whiter ( 0:40 ) And, the lemon, zout, cayenne, you add them after the butter. You should also melt the butter without sturing, so the milk can separate. Use the fat - not the milk, for the sauce to be able to save it more. What also give you a fantastic sauce is to wisk the yolks on cold, then little on the fire, the little of the fire and play with them like that and with will become like an airy mayo. It's sooo light and creamy

[@daveklein2826]

Not necessary

[@avatarwormette]

@@daveklein2826 That's the traditional way - though in cooking schools. I had had a exam with Bearnaise sauce. The difference between hollandaise and bearnaise is that for one you add water, and for the other you add tarragon vinegar, and you add some more tarragon at the end.

I worked in a very busy restaurant and Sunday brunch was a big deal. I was never interested in eggs Benedict until recently. Now I love it. Anyway, your comment about restaurants usiing too much vinegar made me laugh because now, thinking back I remember the egg station having a large pot of water to poach eggs in. Brunch lasted from 10-2 and Im sure as the water evaporated they would add more as needed and I bet they added more vinegar each time too.

Preppy Kitchen - There is a way to make a MUCH EASIER mock hollandaise sauce as it is called, using sour cream (or I use Greek yogurt), fresh lemon juice and a little egg yolk plus salt that tastes just as good to me. The recipe comes from a cookbook called FORUM FEASTS compiled and created by the Junior League of New Jersey back in the 60s or 70s. On page 167 it has 3 different hollandaise sauce recipes. This one is labeled "very easy". It calls for: 1 egg yolk; 1/2 t. salt; 1/2 t. sugar; 1/8 t. pepper; 1 1/2 t. lemon juice (I use more); 1/2 cup sour cream. Heat ingredients stirring constantly for 5-8 minutes until mixture thickens. "Do not over cook." it says. Try it and enjoy! : )
