Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt butter in the microwave.

  2. 2

    Whisk 2 egg yolks with lemon juice over a double boiler until thickened.

  3. 3

    Slowly drizzle melted butter while whisking continuously to make hollandaise.

  4. 4

    Season with salt and cayenne pepper.

  5. 5

    Bring water to a gentle simmer, add vinegar, and poach eggs for 3-4 minutes.

  6. 6

    Halve and toast English muffins, cook bacon until crisp.

  7. 7

    Stack bacon and poached egg on muffin, drizzle hollandaise sauce on top.

Tips

Water should barely simmer, not boil, for perfect poached eggs.
If hollandaise splits, add 1 tsp cold water and whisk to re-emulsify.
Pour butter very slowly to prevent the sauce from breaking.
