I have a confession....hollandaise

[cruiser gal]

Eggs benny, are my favourite type of eggs. And of course its the hollandaise sauce that makes it so scrumptuous. I think I can eat both sauces on almost everything :yikes

Ok so my arteries are clogging as we speak but I had it again tonight my son poaced some dover sole and fresh string beans OMG ...is there anything this can not go on ....I put extra hot pepper in mine!!!! My son was telling me when he was in culinary school they have an Hollandaise machine!!!! OMG :yikes

Actually they do have a package hollendaise sauce that you just add water to, for those really really cooking challenged. The recipe is sooo easy. You just have to be sure to not get it too hot or it curdles. I use a double boiler.
Sorry I didn't see this thread before Nursey. I could not believe you have never had eggs benedict! That restaurant near us does spinach benes, seafood benes, almost any kind of bene you can imagine! I did a steak bene this morning, posted a pic. My kids and DH were thrilled. I hadn't made that in so long. Thanks for making me think of it! Marla said it was better than any she had ever eaten in a restaurant!
