For the Base

  • 4 oz Beef Bresaola thinly sliced
For the Eggs
  • 2 pieces Large Eggs
  • 1 tbsp White Vinegar
For the Hollandaise Sauce
  • 2 pieces Egg Yolks
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter warmed for emulsion
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice from half a lemon
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Cayenne Pepper
For Garnish
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Chives or Parsley finely chopped

Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Heatproof bowl
  • skillet
  • toaster or broiler
  • slotted spoon

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Melt unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat until just warm and fully melted. In a heatproof bowl, whisk together egg yolks and lemon juice until pale and frothy, about 2 minutes. Gradually drizzle in the warm butter while whisking continuously until thick and silky. Season with salt and cayenne pepper, then keep warm.
  2. Fill a deep skillet with 3 inches of water and add white vinegar; bring to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small ramekin and slide them into the water one at a time. Cook for approximately 3 minutes for runny yolks. Remove with a slotted spoon and let excess water drip off.
  3. Split and toast English muffins until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Set aside on a serving platter.
  4. Layer beef bresaola slices on each toasted muffin half. Place a poached egg on top and spoon hollandaise sauce generously over each egg.
  5. Garnish with chopped chives or parsley and sprinkle with black pepper. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Use fresh eggs for better poaching. Hollandaise can be restored by whisking in cold water if it separates.
