Eggs Benedict
I've taken the scary work out of making a hollandaise-just use the blender. This hollandaise can be kept in the refrigerator for 4 days, so I have been known to double it. Just reheat slowly.

Step-by-step
- Combine the yolks and lemon juice in a blender jar on high speed for 20 seconds.
- With the blender running, slowly drizzle the hot butter into the jar leaving the milky white residue behind.
- If the sauce seems too thick, add hot water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency. Season with salt, pepper and additional lemon juice, if needed. Set aside and keep warm.
- Pour water to a depth of three inches in a medium saucepan (about 3 cups water). Add the vinegar to the water and bring it to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a bare simmer.
- Crack one of the eggs into a ramekin or coffee cup. Slip it into the water, twisting your wrist to get the egg to wrap around itself. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
- Let the eggs poach until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 ¾ minutes. Remove the eggs from the water with a slotted spoon and drain them briefly on paper towels.
- Split the muffins and toast them. While they are toasting heat the bacon through in a skillet set over medium-high heat.
- Plate two muffin halves on each plate. Top each muffin with a slice of the bacon. Top each one of these with a poached egg. Pour hollandaise over the poached eggs.
I love a good eggs benedict, but I've always been intimidated by the hollandaise sauce. It just seems so complicated and fussy. But this recipe for blender hollandaise is a game-changer. It's so easy to make, and it turns out perfectly every time.
