About the Bourbon Eggs Benedict
Brunch, Texas style. Toasted English muffins are stacked with sliced beef tenderloin, roasted asparagus and a soft poached egg, then blanketed in an easy microwave hollandaise finished with Garrison Brothers Small Batch and Dijon. Rich, lemony and built for a slow Sunday.
Questions, answered
Can I really make hollandaise in the microwave?
Yes. Short bursts with a whisk between each keep the yolks from scrambling. The cream makes it more forgiving than the classic version.
Can I use ham or Canadian bacon instead of tenderloin?
Yes. Both are traditional. Tenderloin makes it heartier and pairs well with the bourbon.
How do I poach eggs for a crowd?
Poach them a few at a time, then hold them in a bowl of warm water. Reheat in simmering water for 30 seconds before serving.
