Ingredients List
- == HOLLANDAISE SAUCE ==
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 3 large egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Several dashes bottled hot pepper sauce
- == CRAB AND EGGS ==
- 3/4 pound cooked lump crabmeat, thoroughly picked and cleaned of cartilage
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 6 large eggs
- 1 tomato, thinly sliced crosswise
- 6 English muffins, split, toasted, and still hot
Directions
For the hollandaise sauce, in a medium saucepan (preferably one with a lip for pouring), heat the butter until frothy. Use a spoon to skim off the foam. In a blender, whip the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and hot sauce for 3 to 5 seconds or until thickened. With the blender running, slowly pour in the hot butter, leaving the white milk solids at the bottom of the pan. Transfer the sauce to a bowl. Before serving, reheat the sauce in the bowl set
over a pan of simmering water.
In a medium bowl, stir together the crabmeat, chives, lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; set aside.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the vinegar. Crack each egg into a separate cup. Reduce the water to a simmer and carefully slide the eggs, one by one, into the water. Simmer eggs for 3 to 5 minutes or until firm. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a plate lined with a clean dish towel.
Place a tomato slice on the bottom half of each muffin. Top each tomato with some of the crab mixture and a poached egg. Drizzle warm hollandaise sauce over eggs. Serve immediately with English muffin tops.
