Answer 1

Eggs Benedict

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup butter
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup boiling water
dash salt
dash ground cayenne pepper
3 tomatoes, ends removed and halved
12 thin slices cooked ham
6 eggs
6 English muffins, split, toasted, and buttered

PREPARATION:
Eggs Benedict. In the top of a double boiler, whisk egg yolks and lemon juice together. Add 1/3 of the butter, about 3 tablespoons. Place double boiler over simmering water. Cook, beating constantly, until butter melts and sauce begins to thicken.

Add 3 more tablespoons of butter, stir until butter melts, then add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Slowly whisk in boiling water. Continue cooking over simmering water, stirring, until mixture thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in salt and cayenne pepper.
Place ham slices and tomato halves on rack of broiler pan. Broil 4 inches from heat for about 4 minutes, or until ham begins to get browned and tomatoes are cooked through.

While ham is broiling, pour about 2 inches of water into a large skillet. Lightly salt water; bring to the boiling point. Carefully put eggs in water, breaking into a cup first, then gently slipping them into the water one at a time.

Simmer eggs, while basting with the water, for 3 to 5 minutes or until set. Remove with slotted spoon; drain.

On warm serving plates, place English muffins, 2 halves to each plate. Top halves with 2 slices of ham and a poached egg. Spoon a little sauce over the egg and place a thick slice of boiled tomato next to the egg.

Answer 2

The key to cooking eggs is to not have the heat too high. High heat = rubbery eggs for sure. My favorite is over easy... best way to make sure the white is cooked to the "top" side. I like scrambled (with cheese) too but again gentle heat is the clue. You want to cook them until they are "just" done. If you get them too dry in the pan they will be overdone by the time you get them served.

Answer 3

Southern Style Deviled Eggs

INGREDIENTS
6 eggs
1 (4.5 ounce) can deviled ham spread
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
1 tablespoon mayonnaise, or as needed
salt and pepper to taste
1 pinch paprika
3 pimento-stuffed green olives, sliced (optional)
DIRECTIONS
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, and run under cold water to cool. Peel eggs, and cut into halves lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolks from the eggs, and place them into a medium bowl, scooping out a little bit of the white along with the yolk to make a more generous cup for filling. Mash the egg yolks with deviled ham, relish and enough mayonnaise to make a smooth mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the mixture into the egg whites, or pipe with a piping bag for a more elegant look. Garnish filling with a sprinkle of paprika, and top some of them with a slice of green olive stuffed with pimento. Chill until serving.
