So when you try and get all three of those cut and stacked on a fork, it's almost impossible. And the Hollandaise doesn't help matters either. The whole thing falls apart, slides around, and you end up trying to stack the components individually.

Talk about a first world problem!! Maybe I should try a spoon.:confused:

Cover it with a layer of shredded cheddar cheese, so that as it cools and congels it traps everything in place.

Or, if you're a bit broke, 2 good slices of pre-wrapped American cheese will work.







Eggs Benedict is my favorite version of eggs, but I reserve eating it for vacations only. I will leave a hotel if the restaurant can't make them for breakfast. A pox on them!

I’ll meet you halfway and only put ketchup and mustard on a regular hotdog. Brats and Polish only get mustard.

Agreed, just don't post pics and we'll be good. :)

I pretty much order Eggs Benedict every Sunday when I take may parents out to breakfast.

We recently changed to a new restaurant and their eggs benedict were the best I've had. #1) they asked me how I wanted my eggs poached. I have never heard this question so I asked for medium. A little firmer would have been even better for me. #2) the English muffin had been placed on the grill so it had a crisp that was perfect. The ham was also slightly crisped.

It still fell apart when eating but was really good!

The technique is simple. Gently pull the Canadian bacon from under the egg...cut and eat. Then cut the muffin & egg, eat together.
Save any extra hollandaise sauce for hash browns seasoning.

If you cut it with enough champagne, it is not too rich.

I make them at home with just a poached egg and a buttered English muffin.

However when I get it at a restaurant I take a sharp knife, cut in half, quarters, eights, and that leaves bite size pieces.

Don't get me started on pineapple on pizza!

Replace the ham with bacon and then shove all the other stuff to the side ;)

Or you could just smear bacon jam on it

At last, something we can agree on.

I generally saw it up with the knife first, and eat it like a naughty omelette. You guys make me laugh. I would like to learn to make it, using the techniques given here. Also...this is not the first Pelican Eggs Benedict thread.

mattdavis11 01-24-2018 08:29 PM

I'd rather have huevos rancheros, or migas. No way will I ever go for eggs benedict. Plenty of other choices, but no benedict. Save the hollandaise for asparagus.

Sure, the mustard and whathaveyou look great on the top, thank French's Mustard's 1946 ad campaign for that, but by putting them in the bun first and laying the dog on top you are effectively creating a condiment vault, holding all that savory goodness inside for every bite. Advanced course will go over dos and don'ts of the Chicago style dog and how ketchup on a hotdog is a sin against God and its political ramifications.

No ketchup on a dog - never ever. There are 7 condiments that go on a Chicago style dog: mustard, lime green relish, tomatoes, onions, celery salt, sport peppers and a pickle.

Back to the OP: Eggs Benedict needs Canadian bacon.

There is an old joke about eggs benedict. There are two things you don't get at home.
One is eggs benedict. The other I will leave to your imagination.....:)
