CLASSIC EGGS BENEDICT
There's nothing more classic for brunch than Eggs Benedict. Perfecting this dish is all about timing. Have all ingredients close at hand and prepare the Hollandaise sauce first. Eggs can be poached on the stovetop or in the microwave, then set on English muffin halves topped with a slice of back bacon and a spoonful of creamy Hollandaise.

Steps:
- Prepare Hollandaise sauce according to directions below. Set aside while poaching eggs.
- Stovetop Poaching Method: Fill saucepan with about 3 inches (8 cm) of water. Add a splash of vinegar. Heat until water simmers gently. Break cold egg into small dish or saucer. Holding dish just above simmering water, gently slip egg into water. Repeat for remaining eggs. Cook in barely simmering water until whites are set and yolks are cooked as desired, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove eggs with slotted spoon and drain well on paper towel.
- Microwave Poaching Method: Pour ⅓ cup (75 mL) water into small deep bowl. Bring to boil on High (100% power). Break eggs, one at a time, and slip into water. Pierce yolk membranes with fork. Cover with plastic wrap, leaving small steam vent. Cook until whites are set and yolk are cooked as desired, 40 to 60 seconds. Let stand, covered, for 1 minute. Remove eggs from bowl and drain well on paper towel.
- Top each English muffin half with slice of back bacon, a poached egg and 2 tbsp (30 mL) Hollandaise sauce.
- Hollandaise Sauce
- Stovetop Method: In top of double boiler, whisk together butter, egg yolks, lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Cook over simmering water, stirring constantly until thickened, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Microwave Method: In 4-cup (1 L) glass measure, whisk together butter, egg yolks, lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Gradually add melted butter into yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Microwave on Medium (50% power) until sauce thickens, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Whisk halfway through and at end of cooking to produce a smooth sauce. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Sauce (while sauce is cooking, prepare/heat the other ingredients):.
- In a sauce pot, over medium heat, melt the butter and stir in all the flour, blending well.
- Mix the milk and cream, slowly add to the sauce pot, whisking to totally blend (time to poach those eggs!).
- Add the lemon juice and cayenne pepper.
- Add the grated cheese, blending well. (more cheese can be added for a 'cheesier' flavor if desired. Keep in mind that the cheese will further thicken the sauce.).
- Do not allow the mixture to boil or even come close. Lower the temperature as necessary.
- Cook to thicken sauce to desired consistency. Sauce will further thicken as it sits.
- Heat the ham slices (fry lightly, steam or nuke).
- Add the chopped shallot to the spinach & mix well, heating through.
- Place 1/2 English muffin on each plate, topping it 1st with a ham slice, then 1/4 c spinach mixture, topping that with a poached egg and finally with sauce, then sprinkle with fresh ground pepper.
- Serve hot!
- Keeping a well warmed oven will give you a place to keep things hot 'til you are ready to serve.

EGGS "BENNY" FOR A CROWD
Steps:
- Lightly spray inside of muffin tins with cooking spray. Line each muffin compartment with 3 slices of ham to form a cup. Carefully crack an egg into each cup. Spoon 1 T. of Half & Half over each egg. Bake just long enough until eggs are slightly runny. In meantime, prepare your favorite Hollandaise sauce. Place half slices of English muffins, cut side up, on a cookie sheet and place under a broiler element until lightly toasted. To assemble, place one or two English muffin halves on each plate, place the baked egg and ham combo on top of the muffin and spoon Hollandaise over.
BAKED EGGS FOR A CROWD
The French long ago mastered eggs en cocotte -slightly coddled eggs baked at high heat with butter and cream, which thicken to a gravy as it cooks. There's no finer way to enjoy an egg. To pull this off for a crowd, a large casserole dish coated with butter and partly filled with heavy cream acts as a bath in which to gently cook the eggs. To dress them up, add smoked salmon, a handful of kale or spinach leaves, thinly sliced ham, halved cherry tomatoes or sliced, cooked mushrooms to the mix before you crack in the eggs. Really anything goes here, but keep the accoutrements light and let the eggs take center stage. Finish with flaky sea salt (those large crystals melt on your tongue in just the right way) and any fresh herb you love.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 500 degrees. Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish (square or round). Pour cream in the prepared pan and sprinkle the cubed butter over the top. Add any cooked meat or vegetables, if using. Crack the eggs around the pan and season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Bake until the whites are set and the yolks are still a bit runny, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with herbs and more flaky salt, and serve immediately, piping hot, with toasted bread or English muffins and shallow bowls. Drizzle the cream over the top.

BUFFET-STYLE FLUFFY OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD
This is the method that restaurants use to serve eggs for a buffet brunch --- for cheesy eggs mix in 1-1/2 cups shredded old cheddar cheese or you may sprinkle the cheese on top after removing from the oven --- 2-1/2 cups half and half cream and milk will produce ultra fluffy eggs, for a firmer texture reduce to 2 cups--- NOTE this recipe was tested using large eggs I cannot promise the same results using small or extra large eggs --- if you are serving these eggs at a buffet some side ideas would be salsa, green onions, cheddar cheese and soft buns :)
