-- RECIPE --
ENGLISH MUFFINS
▪140g or 1/2c warm water (86F/30C)
▪4g or about 1.5tsp instant yeast
▪100g or 3/4c poolish or sourdough starter (poolish method below)
▪15g or 1Tbsp olive oil
▪250g or 1 1/2c all purpose flour
▪5g or 3/4tsp salt
▪Corn meal
▪100g/.5c ghee (clarified butter)
Add water, yeast, poolish, olive oil, flour, and salt to bowl of stand mixer with and mix on high with dough hook for 5 minutes. Transfer dough to a bowl, round into a ball, cover, and let sit at room temp for 90 mins.
Divide dough into 6 85g pieces. Shape each piece into a ball by degassing, folding in the sides 2-3x, flipping onto folds, then rolling into a ball. Coat top and bottom in cornmeal. When all 6 have been cornmealed, cover and proof at room temp for 45-60min.
Add ghee to pan over medium to med-high. When melted and preheated, add in English muffins. Cook on side one for 60-90 seconds or until golden. Fry on the second side for another 60-90 seconds. Transfer browned muffins to a sheet tray fitted with a wire rack then finish by baking in 350F/170C preheated oven for 15 mins.

POOLISH
50g or 1/4c warm water
Pinch of instant yeast
50g or 1/3c + 1Tbsp all purpose flour
Mix ingredients, cover, and ferment overnight (9-12 hours)

HOLLANDAISE (the faster way)
▪140g/10Tbsp butter
▪3 egg yolks
▪15g lemon juice (or ½ lemon)
▪3g or 1 heaping tsp salt
▪Very small pinch cayenne
▪15g or 1Tbsp worcestershire
▪10g or 3/4Tbsp dijon mustard
▪25g or 1.75Tbsp water
Add butter to small sauce pan over medium to melt. Temp should be at 175F/80C.
Add egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, cayenne, worch, and dijon to a blender and spin until combined. Slowly stream in 175F/80C butter over the course of 45-60 seconds. Sauce should be very thick so add the 25g water and spin again for about 45 more seconds. Depending on your blender, the temp of the sauce should be at about 130F/55C. Cover and hold over the lowest heat until ready to serve.
POACHED EGGS
water
1 Tbsp/1 cap full white distilled vinegar
Eggs - one for each muffin half
Fill shallow pan with water and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to keep poaching water should be at 185F/85C. Add vinegar to poaching water. Slowly drop contents of each egg into water, leaving plenty of space around each. I like to crack each egg into it’s own small container before dropping them in the water. Allow to cook for about 2mins. Check eggs. Yolk should be soft and runny, but not raw. Poach for an additional 30 seconds or so if needed. Gently transfer to a towel with a slotted spoon.

BUILDING THE EGGS BENNY
▪Canadian bacon or smoked ham
▪English muffin, halved
▪Butter
▪Hollandaise, warmed
▪Chives, minced
Heat round pieces of ham or canadian bacon in a skillet over high until lightly crisped and browned on each side (about 45-60 sec per side)
Split english muffin and toast. Spread with butter on each piece. Top with 4 crisped pieces of ham/canadian bacon. Top each side with 1 poached egg and generous spoonful of hollandaise. Garlish with minced chives.

Bri you are gonna hit 1M this year, i can sense it. The videos just keep getting better and better!
Thank you! I’ve been craving eggs Benedict recently! Definitely doing this today
Bri, I made your English muffins this past weekend and it’s the best I’ve ever tasted! I was requested to make more this weekend. You are truly a gem!! Thank you so much for this awesome recipe!!!🤩🤩🤩
You’re so fun and down to earth, like an internet friend. Thank you for sharing your skill in such a clear, creative and approachable way
If I had thought to ask for a recipe, it might have been this as I love hollandaise but the next-level, homemade English muffins really did it for me. Absolutely brilliant, personally. Well done again, Brian, always.
You are so good. It's wonderful to watch someone who knows what they are doing and who shares it with someone who doesn't.
I'm so glad I found this channel. Thanks for all the great recipes Brian !
HEY BRI. Just wanna say that the quality of your videos keeps getting better and better! Your editor is crushing it
I absolutely love your videos. I started cooking in restaurants when I was 11 years old, got my degree in culinary arts, by the time I was 19. I love how you simplify things.
Tried this out and it turned out super well! The hollandaise stays intact for a super long time, it's truly foolproof. The hardest part of this whole process is actually just poaching the eggs (for me anyway). The homemade muffs were exceptionally good, used olive oil to fry them because I didn't feel like getting ghee and it was still great. Canadian here, so I used peameal bacon - arguably the greatest thing Canada has that the US doesn't.
Poach eggs are easy brah. I don't use white vinegar or do the swirling thing with the water. Make sure the water is on a medium simmer and just crack the egg. Don't touch. 2-3min done.
Excellent video. The best I have seen on eggs Benedict. The most efficient use of time on RUclips.
Mother’s Day best gift right here.
why do i love videos like this so much
Bro! I have been WAITING for this!!! So excited!
Great video; great demonstration: thank you!!
Always great content from Brian!
Your content gives me confidence to try new recipes and ideas. Thanks. You’re a great instructor.
This is a GREAT video! Thx can't wait to make all of this!
I love making this on Sundays every once in a while. And yeah I use the blender for hollandaise as well but thanks for the suggestion of some extra ingredients in the Worcestershire sauce. Sounds like that would work well :) Also I never thought of poaching in a shallow pan for some reason lol but that makes sense that you can see it better. Looks so good! Will have to make this in the near future.
Loooooved your recipe!
Thanks a lot
Hey Bri 😁 thank you so much for showing the easier way and taking my fears of doing this by myself. I love this dish so much but I always screw it up while trying it at home.
The blender is THE WAY Joe. Good luck with it
Me too! Both the sauce and poaching eggs have given me trouble.
@@BrianLagerstrom As English people dont make Muffins with Olive oil or Ghee can you call them something else. We dont put sour dough starter in them either? You have no respect for the way food is actually made.
Glad to see the new Made In stuff. Love their products.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ! This is OUTSTANDING Mr. Langerstrom !
These look incredible. My favorite. Thanks!
Eggs Benedict is my favorite breakfast, and smeared butter on anything hits different!
You're just the best.
Period. Keep making great food.
That looks crazy good!
Looks amazing!
Thank you for including Celsius, i love that
Ure a Genius, this looks so good🙏🏻
TY this is my perfect breakfast!
This Hollandaise recipe is one of the best that I've ever tried! Thank you so much man
my favorite breakfast. Can't wait to ty this
That looks amazing 👍
I always learn new cooking techniques when I watch your videos. Thank you! 😄
Just made this for brunch and it was AMAZING!! Definitely saving this recipe for later use. Highly recommend! 💜
What a great tip for hollandaise-making😃 I will definitely try it. Thanks for sharing!
Can't get enough of your videos. Can't wait to try this out for myself!
Bri the advice for poached eggs is just 👌
Oh mann, that looks beautifully delicious!
Literally used this video to make eggs Benedict as a special request at my BnB. Customer loved it. The hollándose blender bit is killer. Thank you, sir.
Thanks so much, great tip on the hollandaise sauce, it’s been kicking my ass
Great video. Thanks for posting.Steve
That looks delicious!!
Amazing.
Excellent video, and I will definitely use your Hollandaise sauce technique. Thank you.
Hey b dawg, ur vids are super dope brother. Keep it going
That sauce though. Thank you for sharing, once again, kind sir.
Hey Bri. In England Muff means something a heck of a lot different to what you think it means 😊
It means that here too. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻😛😛😛😛
What does it mean?
It means the same in the US, but context is everything.
Eating a muff for breakfast can be in bed OR at the table.
@@hneilmorrisThe latter would be very undignified. And uncomfortable.
@@moehoward01 😂😂😂😂
Perfection !!!!!
One of my favourite things. Looks like you nailed it B'y!!
I started making hollandaise in about 1984, by hand, in a restaurant in a huge stainless steel bowl. I never broke one but several people did. we just didn't use many blenders back then -- blenders were shit, even commercial ones. we used a huge Hobart stand mixer for mayonnaise, but made hollandaise and bearnaise every day by hand (we were primarily a brunch restaurant). the blender method is more stable and easier, but I prefer hand-made, personally.
This was the hollandaise recipe I needed. I've been craving eggs Benedict for ages and I'm sure this will hit the spot.
Did you try it ?
@@MalcolmReviews Yep! The hollandaise is a dream, easiest hollandaise I've ever whipped up.
@@katsumiis4699 Nice! I'm gonna give it a try myself too
Thanks!
one of my favroite parts of monday... bri guy vids
I’m taking classes in a culinary school in two weeks ago I made hollandaise sauce once before class looking online and getting recipes before this came out which came out terrible the ones I did in class came out good yours is so much easier and so much less labor-intensive it’s ridiculous thank you for all the videos you put out they’re all great
Wow! That looks delicious! I love English muffins and I can eat “breakfast “ food anytime! Yum! Thanks Brian! ❤
You had my wife approving this recipe at "don't swirl the water for the poached eggs". Really appreciate the details such as what temp the butter should be before adding it to the yolks. Great channel.
Gorgeous!!!!
man you're genius + adorable! thanks for the recipe.
I was planning on making eggs benedict today anyway, and then you post this!! Thanks!!
Those look awesome.. Eggs Benny.. is my favorite.. classic or with salmon on special occasions.
Love how you have such versatile recipes, bro. Thanks!
Thanks for watching. I try to leave it open for everyone to use as they see fit
Wow, I LOVE this idea for the hollandaise! Looks delish, cannot wait to try it. Probably going to do it with spinach instead of ham/bacon though, I actually prefer it like that. Great video as always!
Glad that you gave us the ideal temp for poaching eggs. It's something I could never get right with the simmer instructions.
Looks great! I learned how to make this the traditional way in culinary school, but I've never made it that way since I learned about the blender method.
that looks fantaztic......will try your egg benny this weekend
I had Eggs Benedict for brunch at work today. Delicious and comforting and it filled me up until dinner time. Just the best way to get you through the day : )
I LOVE learning new techniques. The poached egg method is new to me. I can't unsee it. It's forever how poached eggs will be done! Thanks for your videos :)
Excellent !
Adorei o vídeo ❤
Dude! You made my day. I will have to recover for 6 weeks after surgery and I didn't know what the he'll I was going to do. After seeing a bunch of your recipes I will have plenty to look up!
Thanks Brian! Love this recipes🙏🏼
Thanks for watching Anny
I've tried so many methods of cooking poached eggs, and this one is hands-down the best. Just made 3 eggs and they were all 100% perfect, thanks for sharing your secret!
Adorei o vídeo!
Hey! Bri! That tip for poaching eggs ROCKS!
Absolutely fabulous 🙌🙌🙌🌠🌠🌠
I've made bennies before, and this last time with this recipe was the best so far! Can't wait to make them again.
This is a great recipe, made eggs benny this morning and my cook husband loved it haha
Ok! You've hit it out of the ball park again Brian. I'm covid positive (but now well) and as soon as I can test negative I am going to get some ham so I can make these from the homemade English muffins to the Hollandaise sauce. Thanks Brian! You're the king in my book!
Love this!!!!!!
Like mine at 3 minutes , love your muffins and sauce recipe . A definite will do , thanks .
Grazie per il video, B-uomo! 😂Sembra meravigliosa la uova alla Benedict!
Looks very good.
Super!!
Anche come pronunci arrivederci.
Ciao!
I enjoy using James Beard On Bread's blender Hollandaise recipe which in many respects is similar to your recipe/technique. My wife and I enjoy Hollandaise viscosity to be sufficiently thick enough that it slow pours off a spoon and no thinner/thicker. This sticks to the poached eggs beautifully and clings to the English muffin. Mmmmm Hollandaise...
Looks delicious i can’t wait to make this for my family
I gave up trying to make eggs benedict years ago. Between the poached eggs, to the hollandaise sauce it seemed impossible. But I might try it now. Thanks for giving me hope again! Appreciate that easier technique of poaching..........
I use an immersion blender for my sauce. I actually make my eggs in the oven using a muffin tin. 350 for 7-10 mins. And the muffin with a slice of Canadian bacon for 7 mins in the oven to get a little bit of that grease into the muffin. I like the form of the egg and sits perfectly on the Canadian bacon and English muffin.
I only ever poached two eggs at a time. Two microwave safe tea cups with about 100 g of water each. 90 seconds in the microwave to make them boil. Add an egg to each and another 45 seconds in the microwave.
@@fenderlead1 I guess you REALLY got to know your microwave. I do mine like this for ramen sometimes and if add too many seconds.. I get a nice eggplosion.
Yep as a prep cook I use a immersion blender a 6th pan yolks our tarragon reduction and HOT water. I throw the water with the yolks and emulsify hot butter.
@@SachaGriffin Y'all don't name your microwaves? Mike, is near and dear to me.
@@fenderlead1 I also know of people using the microwave poach trick and getting dangerously explosive results. Ann Reardon has a debunking exploding egg hacks video on that. Kinda stopped microwaving my poached eggs since then.
there is nothing more satisfying than watching a cooking video that is based on grams and litters
I love watching cooking videos. yours always makes me smile when you say: let's eat this thiinngg.😁😁. keep up the good work 👏
You made it look easy “again”! I’ll have to try it!
Hi Brian! I made this tonight. I made the muffins a couple of days ago and put them in the freezer (they are amazing) and made the eggs benedict tonight. I was great with two small caveats. Perhaps drop the amount of the dijon mustard, start with 5 grams, half a teaspoon and increase to taste. The hollandaise sauce was good but too mustard forward. The person I made this for said that you generally don't want to taste a strong flavor of mustard. The other is to strongly recommend a large saucepan. I used a small one and it dropped the water temperature too much (I see that you use a large saucepan, it was probably my mistake to use a smaller one!)
The muffins though, amazing! I've made them twice and I think next time I'll make a double batch. The ghee and frying can be messy, might as well make more, cool and freeze for use over the next week or two.
You knocked this out of the park Bri! Might have to whip these up this weekend.
You are a great inspiration for new bakers! You could make that dough into a great pan pizza if you wanted to split the batch!
Now I’m really hungry! Thanks Bri! For this awesome video!
Love your videos
I will have to try this blender version. I used to make it in a Robocop in our restaurant, not sure if I spelled that correctly 😉. These are dinner tonight and I hope and pray the "leave it alone" poaching technique will work for me 🤞🏻. Thanks Bry 👊🏻.
BRI you’re amazing thx for sharing the secrets I love this idea! I try double boiler method and it was very hard so I never made Benny again. But I think I’m going to try your method! Love the content!
I’ve been learning german for 5 years, es ist spaß für mich und ich ermutige euch zu gleichzeitig tun!
Waw i love this
