Eggs Benedict<\/strong> takes home the award for the most quintessential brunch dish. If it\u2019s on the menu at brunch, there\u2019s a good chance I\u2019m ordering it. Impress your guests with a fancy brunch at home with this Eggs Benedict <\/strong>recipe.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key to a delicious Eggs Benedict<\/strong> is perfectly poached eggs and a well-made hollandaise sauce. But, don\u2019t let the complexity of each of the components intimidate you. This recipe makes each part simple and easy with a few tricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poached Eggs<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For poached eggs, we\u2019ll use Gordon Ramsay\u2019s simple method that only takes 90 seconds per egg. The trick is to add vinegar to boiling water and make a vortex for the egg to poach perfectly. I like to make each egg separately, but to save time you can add multiple eggs to the same simmering pot (depending on the size of the pot)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is an example of how to create the vortex or whirlpool by whisking the boiling water:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll drop your egg in the center of the whirlpool and cook it for exactly 90 seconds. I like to keep the stopwatch on my phone running instead of a timer so I can anticipate exactly when I need to take out the egg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hollandaise Sauce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For hollandaise sauce, many recipes use a double boil method, which can be a challenge. Luckily, this Benedict recipe borrows a quick and easy method from Downshiftology<\/a> to make the hollandaise sauce. We\u2019ll make our hollandaise sauce in a blender, so it\u2019ll be ready within minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important Note: <\/strong>Eggs Benedict needs to be served immediately. The eggs and the hollandaise sauce cannot be reheated<\/strong> because the eggs will cook all the way through, resulting in hard yolks and a clumpy sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n
