Eggs benedict, plate of hash browns, pot of coffee, OJ, and some kind of breakfast pastry. Top off with a couple Camels and maybe a bloody mary if Im hung over.

I love eggs benedict, but the only time I ever have em is hotel room service. I gotta figure out what the hell Hollandaise sauce is so I can make em at home.

Awesome -- except substitute champagne and orange juice for the bloody mary and you have a winner.

Hollandaise sause == sour cream, mayo, mustard, lemon juice... maybe some paprika, but that is close enough

Where did you learn that recipe for Hollandaise sauce?

I used to like Hollandaise sauce, until I read that recipe. Now it seems gross.

And such is the magic of cooking...

I have to admit, it feels pretty damn BALLA to order champagne from room service.

I think that is how they make it in prison.

Original
Add oiling water real slow so as not to cook the egg yolk.
white-wine
4 tablespoons boiling water
3 large egg yolks
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon salt

I know this isn't a cooking thread, but if you have a large glass bowl (pyrex ftw) you can make this without adding water to the mixture. Just get some water (like half an inch) at a good simmer to get some good steam going. Temper the sauce in the glass bowl so you don't scramble the eggs, but it still gets cooked so you're not getting the salmonella.

I never had or seen Eggs benedict. I really have no idea what this is.

Damn, I did not think about that.
To the stove I go to give this a go.
Thanks
