Directions
Eggs Benedict for Two – With Smoked Salmon, I absolutely adore poached eggs on toast so for me Eggs Benedict is really something to enjoy If you have a toaster that will accommodate split muffins, feel free to toast them in that instead of under the grill As I don’t eat ham / prosciutto, I make my Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon which also adds a lovely elegant touch in my opinion Save this recipe for special days such as birthdays & anniversaries, better still drop hints for someone else to make it for you :wink:, I would have given this five stars (I love smoked salmon instead of ham in this dish), except: 1) The ingredients for the hollandaise and the egg dish itself are not separated, which might be confusing It says ‘serves two, ‘ which means that each person would get two egg/smoked salmon/english muffins So that’s four eggs, which leaves two eggs for the hollandaise 2) Also, in my experience hollandaise is made with lemon juice, butter, and egg YOLKS The hot melted butter is added to the yolks in a slow, steady stream Not whole eggs, just the yolks I appreciate that you haven’t included cheese in this recipe, as so many of the other recipes do Cheese turns this from eggs benedict into a mcmuffin , I would have given this five stars (I love smoked salmon instead of ham in this dish), except: 1) The ingredients for the hollandaise and the egg dish itself are not separated, which might be confusing It says ‘serves two, ‘ which means that each person would get two egg/smoked salmon/english muffins So that’s four eggs, which leaves two eggs for the hollandaise 2) Also, in my experience hollandaise is made with lemon juice, butter, and egg YOLKS The hot melted butter is added to the yolks in a slow, steady stream Not whole eggs, just the yolks I appreciate that you haven’t included cheese in this recipe, as so many of the other recipes do Cheese turns this from eggs benedict into a mcmuffin
