James brought back some smoked salmon, and while we enjoyed it, I also wanted to make something with it. After all, we don't get smoked salmon often. James thought of Eggs Benedict and then replacing the ham with smoked salmon - so now I'm sharing Smoked Salmon Benedict with you! Typically, Eggs Benedict consists of a split English muffin, with each half topped with ham, a poached egg, and Hollandaise sauce. It's kinda like a creamier, tangier, yellow mayonnaise. Hollandaise sauce imparts a tangy and rich butteryness to this Smoked Salmon Benedict. The tangy lemon juice brightens and brings out some of the smoked salmon flavor, making for a more scrumptious meal. I made the Hollandaise sauce in a blender, although I'd recommend using a whisk for the smaller volumes used in this recipe.

What's your favorite way to eat smoked salmon?

  4. We love eating them at brunch, so I thought I'd try my hand at making them. :) I still can't honestly say I make them regularly tho! The smoked salmon really added a big hit of flavor and made these even more enjoyable. :)
