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.

Are you usurping Red Badger’s job?

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.

I think Eggs Benny could be my death row last meal.

I love Eggs Benedict. I used to order it when we went out for breakfast, but since my transplant surgery, I’m not allowed to eat Hollandaise sauce since it’s not fully cooked. 🙁

I had eggs, scrapple & fried potatoes slathered with cream chipped beef.

Does that count?

I like a 4 minute egg and a half a slice of toast to dip in the warmed up and runny innards of that egg.

I don’t know why. I had it years ago and it was just plain old good. The funny thing is that little bit of breakfast lasts me until noon. I could eat oatmeal and fried eggs and bacon and all that stuff and I’d be hungry by 9:00 or 10:00 and I’m not sure why that is.

Suggest an additional squirt of fresh lemon (or lime) over the plated hollandaise sauce. Seems most restaurants serve it not lemony enough.

Never liked them. I save my lemon juice for fish and iced tea.
