I once had eggs Benedict in Hawaii, but they did hash brown’s Benedict! It was phenomenal. Now when it is on the menu I ask for that instead of an English muffin!

I made this recipe for the first time on Monday, December 5th for Cliff and myself. I cooked the eggs for just over 4 minutes; I would cut back on the time to 4 for a runnier yolk. I had purchased store-made Hollandaise from Farm Boy which was very good; I added a pinch of dry mustard powder and cayenne pepper to that. First time trying to poach eggs in water vs microwave and it was simple. This was a lovely weeknight dinner, for a change from the usual, and I will definitely add this to my meal rotation.

Hi Mark. I’m Canadian, born and raised and I buy back bacon or Canadian bacon in every grocery store. :) I don’t smirk at those who use the term Canadian bacon, although I would more often refer to it as back bacon.

Ham is different than back bacon as it comes from a different area of the animal. Hope that helps!

Please stop using the term “Canadian Bacon”. It doesn’t exist. The phrase is a marketing tool/gimmick that McDonalds employed when the Egg McMuffin was introduced way back when. I guess the truthful “Ham” description was too plain for a slice of ham. While Back Bacon can be found in the U. K., it is not something sold in mainstream Canadian grocery stores. Please don’t perpetuate the McDonalds created phrase, Canadians just silently smirk at those who do. Now you know. Many thanks for your delicious recipes.

I’m a big fan of eggs Benedict but I use a very fake sauce which is almost as fast as the blender version and sooo many less calories. In saucepan whisk 1/2 cup water, 1 egg yolk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons flour, 1 Tablespoon butter, 1 and 1/2 Tablespoons lemon juice, and a short squirt of mustard. Make sure there’s no flour lumps, but then just heat it over medium-high while you’re cooking other things with an occasional stir. When it bubbles, stir for a minute or so to thicken.
