Paying top dollar for pasture raised organic eggs of cooz. I'll do it until I have no resource but move to a forest and live in a tent right next to organic pastures prime for egg snatching .

Same, I have 15 hens and get too many eggs a day. I live in the country and a lot of people around sell eggs for $5/dozen and I think I am just going to start selling them based on a "pay what you can afford / what you think is fair" type model.

I have been eating a lot of poached eggs on toast or English muffins with spinach onions and jalapenos cooked down in a pan and dropped on top with a slice of muenster or provolone

What problems are you having

I use a wide shallow pan
Smidge of champagne/white wine vinegar
Just boiling

Swirl the water counter clockwise with a slotted spoon
Drop the eggs in
Once white and set, give em a moment to cook through
Pull one out with the slotted spoon and poke it to make sure you haven't fully cooked it through, then gently set them in a shallow bowl lined with paper towel
Whisper sweet nothings to your beautiful little poached eggs

Haha just kidding, it's actually impossible to swirl the water clockwise in the northern hemisphere so I guess if you're in Australia go ahead and swirl it clockwise

Honestly the poached egg part is easy, it's making the hollandaise that sucks rear end

And if you aren't putting hollandaise on your poached eggs I don't know why you wouldn't just make some over medium eggs anway

The best eggs benedict is the Divine Benedict from Opal Diviner's in Austin, TX. Bed of queso, English muffin, sausage patty, poached egg, hollandaise, topped with pico de gallo. Get that Canadian bacon junk outta here

Hollandaise is actually pretty easy too, if you can separate the eggs well enough and you have an immersion blender. Even a regular blender can work in a pinch.

1. Put egg yolks in the blender cup
2. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice in
3. Heat a bunch of butter until foamy (can do this over the stove or in the microwave, but get it into a pourable measuring cup at the end)
4. Start blending together the egg yolks and lemon juice
5. While continuing to blend, slowly pour the hot butter into the blender
6. Pour more butter and blend until the mixture is light yellow and creamy in texture
7. Add salt and pepper to taste as well as some paprika if you're fancy

Done!

I do the immersion blender or use a food processor depending on my mood and still gently caress it up. One time the immersion blender drive gear melted because it was cheap plastic poo poo

Poached eggs are so good, I eat two with an english muffin, capicola, and provolone every morning.

My hens are going egg crazy and giving me way too many every day now so I am making omelets for dinner tonight (also had them last night)
