Poached Eggs

Hollandaise Sauce

Method

Poached Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Water

    In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a gentle simmer. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to the water.

  2. 2

    Poach the Eggs

    Crack each egg into a small bowl. Carefully slide the eggs into the simmering water one at a time. Poach for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

AK Salmon Cakes

  1. 3

    Prepare the Salmon Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the canned salmon, breadcrumbs, 1 egg, Dijon mustard, chopped green onions, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 4

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.

  3. 5

    Cook the Salmon Cakes

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the salmon cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove and keep warm.

Hollandaise Sauce

  1. 6

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt 1 cup of butter over low heat until completely melted.

  2. 7

    Whisk the Egg Yolks

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and salt until the mixture is thick and pale.

  3. 8

    Combine the Mixtures

    Slowly drizzle the melted butter into the egg mixture while whisking continuously until the sauce is thick and creamy. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for flavor.

Assembly

    Toast the English Muffins

    Slice the English muffins in half and toast them until golden brown.

    On each toasted muffin half, place a salmon cake, top with a poached egg, and drizzle with hollandaise sauce. Garnish with thinly sliced red onion.
