Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce

In a heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method). Continue whisking until the mixture is thickened and pale in color.

2. Add Butter to Hollandaise

Slowly melt the butter and gradually whisk it into the egg mixture until the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Keep warm.

3. Poach the Eggs

Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of vinegar. Crack the eggs into a small bowl and gently slide them into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon.

4. Cook the Canadian Bacon

In a skillet, lightly brown the Canadian bacon slices over medium heat for about 2 minutes on each side.

5. Toast the English Muffins

Toast the English muffin halves until golden brown.

6. Assemble the Dish

On each toasted English muffin half, place a slice of Canadian bacon. Top with a poached egg and generously drizzle with the prepared Hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
