Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce

    In a heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning. Place over a pot of simmering water, being careful not to let the bowl touch the water. Gradually whisk in melted butter until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Spinach

    In a skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.

  3. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    In a saucepan, bring water and white vinegar to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the simmering water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Toast the Muffins

    While the eggs are poaching, split the English muffins and toast them until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Neptune Benedict

    On each toasted muffin half, layer sautéed spinach, followed by lump crab meat. Top with poached egg and drizzle with Old Bay hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
