Ingredients
- 4 English muffins
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 9 ounces fresh spinach
- kosher salt to taste
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 8 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter plus more for the English muffins
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice from ½ lemon
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 egg yolks
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- chopped fresh chives optional, for topping
- paprika optional, for topping
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
