Eggs Benedict - An Easy To Make Classic

Traditionally served on English muffins, Eggs Benedict is a scrumptious breakfast or brunch treat. This egg lover’s delight can have many variations, but the classic starts with either ham or Canadian bacon placed upon a split and toasted English muffin. Just right poached eggs lay over the meat and creamy, slightly tangy hollandaise sauce tops it off. This delicious dish is equally at home in a fancy hotel restaurant, a cozy, country style cafe or at the kitchen table of a down to earth grandmother.

Luckily, Grandmother’s Old Fashioned and Modern Recipes has simple instructions that anyone can follow to make a terrific Eggs Benedict. Since eggs are obviously one of the most important ingredients in Eggs Benedict, it is important that they be as fresh as possible.
