8

 whole

 eggs

1

 teaspoon

 white vinegar

8

 Canadian bacon slices

4

 English muffins

 split in half -- see recipe

2

 tablespoons

 unsalted butter

1/2

 cup

 Hollandaise sauce -- see recipe

Toast the muffins. Brown the bacon in a skillet. Keep sauce warm.

Heat a large skillet until the water is simmering. Add the vinegar and stir. Break the eggs into individual cups and slip them into the water. Cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Whites should firm up and yolks should still be runny. Lift out with a slotted spoon.

Place English muffin on plate and top with a slice of Canadian bacon and an 1/8 cup of the hollandaise sauce.

NOTES : You can of course use store bought muffins and hollandaise sauce but the homemade just tastes so good.
