Eggs Benedict is known for its rich, savory, and tangy flavors that combine to create a luxurious breakfast experience.
The dish features a toasted English muffin topped with Canadian bacon (or ham), a poached egg, and Hollandaise sauce. The English muffin provides a slightly chewy and subtly sweet base. The Canadian bacon offers a salty and savory element. The poached egg contributes a creamy yolk that enriches the overall flavor. The Hollandaise sauce, a butter-based emulsion with lemon juice and egg yolks, provides a tangy, rich, and buttery finish.

Poached Egg Perfection
Use the freshest eggs possible. Create a whirlpool in simmering water with a dash of vinegar to help the egg whites coagulate quickly and neatly. Gently lower the egg into the water and cook for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk.
Hollandaise Stability
Use a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over simmering water to prevent the Hollandaise sauce from curdling. Whisk constantly while slowly drizzling in melted butter. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a teaspoon of warm water to thin it out. Lemon juice adds brightness and acidity.
Variations
Experiment with different ingredients to create your own version of Eggs Benedict. Substitute smoked salmon for Canadian bacon (Eggs Royale), spinach for ham (Eggs Florentine), or avocado for a vegetarian option.
