By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site.

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research.

Chardonnay and Cavan are my top picks for Eggs Benedict. Sparkling wine--with our without orange juice--is an obvious choice for eggs. With buttery hollandaise sauce, though, you might opt for a fuller white wine like chardonnay. One wine you could try is One Maple Winery Chardonnay. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 14 dollars.

Ripe, tropical melon, with a crisp citrusy finish.

Instructions

  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.
