Great Sauce...

I only used the sauce recipe. The Hollandaise came out really good. I used about 1/2 the butter it called for though. It was just too much butter and next time I think I will only make 1/2 the recipe. It yielded alot of sauce and we only needed it for 6 eggs benedict. Will definately make this again. It was super easy and this was the first time trying to make Hollandaise , so I was really pleased I was able to make it at all !!

Eggs benedict can be Florentine with the addition of Spinach. And they become Eggs Benny Canadian when made with peameal bacon, and they become Orange eggs benedict with an orange-hollondaise sauce. Clearly Tyler knows more than you do!




Good, but could be better

This overall recipe was good, but I didn't like how the hollandaise sauce tasted a lot like butter. Is there anything you could do to take the spotlight off of the butter taste? Other than that, the recipe is great!




Wonderful

i can't believe tyler doesn't know the difference between eggs benedict and florentine. eggs benedict DO NOT contain spinach. anyway, terminology aside, it's a lot of work but pretty yummy change from the usual muffin/bacon/egg combo.




Nice!

The flavor was excellent and the sauce was easy to make but it was just too rich for my family.

The spinach/onion added a healthier feel to it. I made this for brunch and every person loved it. The sauce was perfect. It is a little bit difficult to serve everyone at the same time and sit down with my guests, but they all appreciated the effort. May be better for a Sunday breakfast.

I made this for Easter Brunch and it was a hit!! Everyone loved it and was so impressed that I made the hollandaise sauce from scratch. The thing is it was soooo.... easy! I will definitley be making this again because my husband loved it! Also the addition of the spinach is great, gets some dark greens in which is a plus! Fantastic recipe!

Disappointed

I tried this last night. It does indeed involve a lot of pots and pans and creates havoc in the kitchen workspace. I decided I prefer poached eggs in my electric poacher. We also thought the sauce was too thin and did not have a definitive taste. My husband said it tasted good but I wasn't pleased.




Wonderful!

We loved this. I did use fresh spinach instead of frozen. Just chopped it up after washing and draining it, before adding it to the onions to saute. My husband gave me many compliments on this and the roasted potatoes. The sauce is very easy and turned out perfect. It is very buttery, I might try using a bit less butter next time, maybe 3/4 of it? It made more sauce than we needed anyway. Will definitely be making this again very soon.

I made this and the roasted potatoes for New Year's Day Brunch and it was absolutely divine. My kitchen was turned upside down when I got through, but it was sooo worth it. This will be a favorite for a long time.




Fabulous!

I have made this a couple of times now and everyone just LOVES it. When preparing it, the kitchen becomes a mess but it is well worth it. I'm preparing ahead the spinach, the sauce, and the potatoes on Saturday. I will then prepare a brunch on Sunday and hopefully not make such a mess.
