EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• To Make Hollandaise: Fill the bottom of a double boiler part-way with water. Make sure that water does not touch the top pan. Bring water to a gentle simmer. In the top of the double boiler, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, white pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon water.
• Add the melted butter to egg yolk mixture 1 or 2 tablespoons at a time while whisking yolks constantly. If hollandaise begins to get too thick, add a teaspoon or two of hot water. Continue whisking until all butter is incorporated. Whisk in salt, then remove from heat. Place a lid on pan to keep sauce warm.
• Preheat oven on broiler setting. To Poach Eggs: Fill a large saucepan with 3 inches of water. Bring water to a gentle simmer, then add vinegar. Carefully break eggs into simmering water, and allow to cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Yolks should still be soft in center. Remove eggs from water with a slotted spoon and set on a warm plate
• While eggs are poaching, brown the bacon in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and toast the English muffins on a baking sheet under the broiler.
• Spread toasted muffins with softened butter, and top each one with a slice of bacon, followed by one poached egg. Place 2 muffins on each plate and drizzle with hollandaise sauce. Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve immediately.

MUFFIN-TIN EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• For the eggs Benedict: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin very generously with nonstick spray.
• Cut each biscuit in half horizontally and press out into a 4- to 5-inch circle. Firmly press the circles into the bottom and up the sides the muffin cups.
• Divide the bacon among the muffin cups. Top each cup with an egg, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the eggs are just set, 15 to 20 minutes.
• For the Hollandaise: Put the egg yolks, vinegar and cayenne in a blender. Pulse a few times to combine.
• Put the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or liquid measuring cup and microwave until just melted.
• With the blender running, gradually add the melted butter to make a smooth sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add about 1 teaspoon warm water to loosen it. Season with salt.
• To serve: Run a thin knife around the edge of each muffin cup and gently pop out the eggs Benedict onto a cutting board. Serve immediately, topped with the Hollandaise and sprinkled with scallions.

BAKED EGGS BENEDICT CUPS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Egg Cups: Grease a large muffin tin. Place a slice of ham in each tin, then crack an egg over each slice of ham. Cover with tin foil, then bake at 350˚F (175˚C) for 8-10 minutes (eight minutes if you like your yolk very runny).
• Hollandaise sauce: Fill the bottom of a double boiler part-way with water. Make sure that the water doesn't touch the top bowl. Bring water to a gentle simmer. In the top of the double boiler, whisk together three egg yolks and ½ tsp white vinegar until well mixed.
• Slowly pour the melted butter in the egg yolk mixture, a little at a time, while constantly whisking. If you pour too much too quickly without whisking, the mixture might not thicken or mix properly. If the hollandaise gets too thick, add a teaspoon or two of hot water. Continue whisking until all the butter is incorporated.
• Remove from heat, whisk in lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• Place a toasted English muffin half down, layer the ham and egg cup on top of the English muffin, then drizzle your hollandaise sauce over the egg.
• Enjoy!

OVEN EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• 1. *NOTE: Recipe, as written, is per serving. Large size muffin tin, or ramekins, may be used instead of stoneware cups. Thin sliced ham, or Canadian bacon, may be substituted for prosciutto. If using English muffin or toast, trim to fit size of cup.
• 2. Gather and prep ingredients. Preheat toaster oven, or regular oven, to 400 degrees F.
• 3. Use a small amount of butter to grease the inside of a stoneware/oven-safe cup.
• 4. Cut prosciutto in half. Cut one of the halves into three lenghtwise strips. Line the inside bottom of cup with half prosciutto slice. Press three remaining strips of prosciutto around side of cup.
• 5. Lightly butter biscuit, English muffin half or toast round (optional.)
• 6. Gently press into cup, being careful not to dislodge ham around sides, if possible. Press down to slightly flatten. Set aside.
• 7. Melt 1 teaspoon butter, in small nonstick skillet, over medium/medium-high heat.
• 8. Add asparagus pieces; sautee for 2 to 3 minutes, until tender.
• 9. Spoon sauteed asparagus over biscuit in cup.
• 10. Sprinkle with cheese and tiny pinch salt and/or pepper, to taste. Press down on the middle to form a well for the yolk.
• 11. Crack egg into cup, gently centering egg yolk in the well.
• 12. Dribble 1/2 teaspoon cream over the white of the egg.
• 13. Place on baking tray/sheet. Bake in preheated 400 degree F oven for 15 to 18 minutes, until egg is cooked to your preference (I prefer a fairly runny yolk, so 17 minutes in my toaster oven is perfect.)
• 14. While egg is cooking, prepare hollandaise sauce according to package instructions. Cover and keep warm until served.
• 15. When egg is cooked to your liking, remove from oven. Run a knife around inside of cup to loosen. Use a fork to help slide egg and ham, out of cup, onto serving plate.

Place 2 slices bacon on each muffin. Heat 3 inches of water in Dutch oven to simmer. Break one egg at a time into a small cup. Holding cup close to water's surface and at edge of Dutch oven, slip egg into simmering water. Cook until egg is set about 2-3 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon and let water drip off. Gently place egg on top of muffin. Continue with remaining eggs. Spoon prepared sauce over each egg, dividing evenly. Sprinkle with crumb mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• First, bring a pot of water to a boil. While the water's boiling, place the English muffin halves and an equal number of Canadian bacon slices on a cookie sheet. Lightly butter the English muffins and place the sheet under the broiler for just a few minutes, or until the English muffins are very lightly golden. Be careful not to dry out the Canadian bacon.
• Now if you do not have an egg poacher you can poach your eggs by doing the following: With a spoon, begin stirring the boiling water in a large, circular motion. When the tornado's really twisting crack in an egg. The reason for the swirling is so the egg will wrap around itself as it cooks, keeping it together. Cook for about 2 ½ to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
• In a small saucepan, melt 2 sticks of butter until sizzling. But don't let it burn! Separate three eggs and place the yolks into a blender. Turn the blender on low to allow the yolks to combine, then begin pouring the very hot butter in a thin stream into the blender. The blender should remain on the whole time, and you should be careful to pour in the butter very slowly. Keep pouring butter until it's all gone, then immediately begin squeezing lemon juice into the blender. If you are going to add cayenne pepper, this is the point at which you would do that.
• Place the English muffins on the plate, face up. Next, place a slice of Canadian bacon on each half. Place an egg on top of the bacon and then top with a generous helping of Hollandaise sauce. Vegetarian variation: you can omit the Canadian bacon altogether, or you can wilt fresh spinach and place it on the muffins for Eggs Florentine, which is divine in its own right. Top with more cayenne, or a sprinkle of paprika, and chopped chives if you like.

OVEN POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. For easier clean-up, grease each muffin cup. Then add 1 tablespoon water to each muffin cup-even if you are NOT making a full batch. Adding water to the empty muffins cups will help the pan not scorch in the oven.
• Crack one egg into each muffin cup, for as many eggs as you would like to poach.
• Bake for 11-13 minutes. 11 minutes, the yolk is very runny and egg whites are just about set; 13 minutes, the yolk is runny, but beginning to set around edges and egg whites are completely set.
• Using a spoon, gently scoop out the poached eggs at an angle, allowing the water to drain off the poached egg.
• Serve immediately.

THE BEST EGGS BENEDICT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Fill a large saucepan with 2 quarts water. Add the vinegar and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, toast the English muffins until golden brown. Spread with butter and place on one side of a baking sheet. Keep warm in the oven.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Canadian bacon and cook until heated through, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer the bacon to the other side of the baking sheet to keep warm.
• Melt the remaining butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the yolks, lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the cayenne to a blender. Blend for 1 minute. With the blender running, pour the melted butter very slowly through the open hole of the blender lid until smooth, thick and emulsified. Transfer the sauce back to the saucepan and place in the oven to keep warm.
• Crack the whole eggs into small cups or glasses. If your simmering water has reduced too much, add a bit more water and bring back to a steady simmer. When the water is at a steady simmer, slip the eggs into the water in one quick motion, arranging them clockwise in the pan so you know which will be ready first.. Poach the eggs until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
• Top each muffin half with a slice of Canadian bacon and a poached egg. Pour hollandaise sauce over each muffin. (If the sauce has thickened too much, whisk it with a tablespoon of water.) Sprinkle each serving with a little cayenne and serve immediately.
