Tabasco to taste
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
1 tsp lemon juice
Hollandaise Sauce Preparation:
-
Set up a double boiler over medium heat
-
Begin by whisking together the yolks, water and lemon juice. The idea is to lightly steam the yolks until they are cooked without scrambling them
-
Once you have achieved a pale yellow color that signals that your eggs are cooked. You can slowly start to add the warm clarified butter to the yolks, whisking constantly
-
As your base thickens you can drizzle the butter fast until all is complete
-
Season with salt, pepper and Tabasco
Additional Ingredients:
-
4 Hot Dog Buns, toasted
-
2 tsp. Old Bay Spice
-
3 oz.White Vinegar
-
1 gallon water
Now it is time to complete your delicious brunch!
-
Poach your eggs and prepare to assemble
-
In a slightly boiling pot of water, add the vinegar
-
Add the whole eggs to the water; swirl water gently so eggs don’t sink to the bottom
-
It will take only 1.5 to 2 minutes to poach the eggs, depending on water temp
-
While the eggs are cooking, take your toasted hot dog bun, and top with lobster salad
-
Once the poached eggs are ready, remove, drain and top 2 eggs on each lobster roll
-
Then top with Hollandaise sauce, Old Bay spice and enjoy!
