Soft Eggs

[mrsr]

I make my own hollandaise sauce from scratch and for the time that the egg yolk is in the pot with the vinegar, butter and lemon juice, they look relatively cooked to me, the heat that the sauce is cooked over is enough I think for the yolks to be cooked through...they do go pale yellow not bright yellow as they look raw. Thoughts?

I've been naughty and have had 3-4 minute eggs recently...I must stop!!!

For those of you who love your eggs benedict but are concerned about raw egg usage try the cheats way of making it. It's the only way I make it as I just can't be bothered doing it properly.

Use half a quantity of mayonnaise and half a quantity of cream, add some pepper and mix well. Microwave til hot enough (just a few seconds) and hey presto.... cheats hollandaise.
