Servings: 2

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup butter

Chives

2 tablespoons cream

3 egg yolks

4 eggs

2 English muffins

Fresh ground pepper

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vinegar

Equipment:

food processor

slotted spoon

frying pan

double boiler

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Bring a shallow pan of water and the vinegar to a boil.
  2. To poach the eggs, break each egg into a cup, and slide into the boiling water. By putting it in a cup first, it keeps the eggs neater in the boiling water.
  3. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a towel.
  4. Toast the English muffins.
  5. For the hollandaise sauce, put the egg yolks, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and blend until smooth.
  6. Melt the butter in a pan on a very low flame, then add it to the food processor and blend until well mixed.
  7. Place the sauce in a double boiler and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring it constantly- so it doesnt start to clump and turn into scrambled eggs. (If you dont have a double boiler- like me- put it in a non-stick pan and make the flame super low. Pay extra attention to constantly stirring it.
  8. Stir in the cream and season with pepper.
  9. Place a poached egg on each muffin slice and top with the sauce and chopped fresh chives.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
