Preparation Steps
- Start by cracking the Canadian Grade A eggs into separate ramekins. In a large pot, bring 3 inches of water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add a splash of white vinegar and a pinch of salt.
- Using a spoon, stir the simmering water to create a gentle whirlpool. This will help the eggs maintain a round shape as you poach them.
- Carefully slip the eggs into the whirlpool one at a time, allowing them to cook undisturbed for about 3.5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to lift them out.
- While the eggs are poaching, prepare the hollandaise sauce in a blender by combining the room-temperature egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper. Blend until frothy.
- Melt the salted butter in the microwave until steaming and bubbly. This should take about 30-45 seconds.
- With the blender running on low speed, slowly pour in the hot melted butter to the yolk mixture and blend until the sauce thickens.
- To plate, start by toasting the English muffins until crisp. Layer with avocado and tomatoes, then top with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce.
