Haven't had breakfast yet. I have eggs and sausage. I don't think I have any Benedict sauce.

Every time I make hollandaise sauce, it is always a guess whether I will get it right, and doubly so if I try to make Bearnaise. I used to use a blender method, which always worked, but we got rid of our old blender during one move and replaced it with a stick blender. Ever since we’ve done that, I’ve had a hard time getting it just right. The last time I made it (to go with steamed artichokes) it wasn’t thickening right, so I popped it into a saucepan and whisked constantly over medium heat. Rescued it! That was a relief. I just need to keep practicing till I figure out what slight thing I do “wrong”. I think one time I didn’t add the hot butter slow enough or fast enough. Still don’t know which is preferable.

Hollandaise is not that hard.

If you scramble the eggs or burn it black it is over but just about anything else can be fixed.

If your sauce breaks add a spoonful of boiling water.

Today is also National Mushroom day. There’s still time!

And my man can handle the upcoming National Pigs in a Blanket day and National Bubble Tea day! Yum!

Ray Kroc loved the dish so much, his fast food version became the Egg McMuffin.

But no hollandaise. Which is why the sandwich requires mustard. But most places do not want to put it on nor do they have mustard packets.

There’s no wrong way to do it. Bacon would be good too. Lots of bacon.

(Having lived in Philly, I’m a big fan of breakfast at Philly diners.)
