For the Hollandaise Sauce

Method

For the Poached Eggs

1

Prepare the Poaching Liquid

In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a gentle simmer. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the water, which will help the eggs hold their shape.

2

Poach the Eggs

Crack each egg into a small bowl. Gently slide each egg into the simmering water. Poach the eggs for about 3-4 minutes for a soft yolk or longer if you prefer a firmer yolk. Once done, remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.

For the Hollandaise Sauce

3

Melt the Butter

In a small saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over low heat until fully melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

4

Whisk the Yolks

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the 3 egg yolks, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of salt until the mixture is pale and thick.

5

Combine Butter and Egg Mixture

Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the egg yolk mixture while continuously whisking. The sauce should thicken and become creamy. Season with white pepper to taste.

For Assembly

6

Toast the English Muffins

Split the English muffins in half and toast until golden brown.

7

Prepare the Avocado

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash it lightly with a fork and season with salt.

8

Assemble the Benedict

On each toasted English muffin half, spread a layer of mashed avocado, place a slice of smoked salmon, and top with a poached egg. Drizzle hollandaise sauce generously over the top and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
