Instructions

  1. Butter the English muffin halves and place them on a large sheet pan, cut side up. Place the pan under the broiler for 3-4 minutes until the English muffins are toasted.
  2. Add the olive oil to a skillet over medium heat. Add in the spinach, sprinkle with salt, and sauté until wilted. Add in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds. Place the spinach in a strainer to drain the excess liquid.
  3. In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Crack the eggs into small bowls or ramekins (see notes). Then, reduce the heat so the water is barely simmering with just a few tiny bubbles at the bottom of the pan. Add 1 tablespoon vinegar to the water. Bring the ramekins close to the water and gently drop in the eggs, 2 to 4 at a time. Cover the pan, letting the eggs poach for about 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to a plate lined with paper towel.
  4. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in the microwave. Add the lemon juice, dijon mustard, egg yolks, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a blender or food processor, and blend for a minute until smooth. Keeping the blender running, slowly stream in the melted butter and blend until the mixture reaches a smooth and slightly thickened consistency.
  5. Place one small pile of spinach on each English muffin half. Then, top with a poached egg. Spoon Hollandaise sauce over each egg. Finish with a sprinkle of chives and paprika, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Store eggs Florentine in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
