I made Eggs Benedict yesterday for breakfast. What are your ideas for using the leftover egg whites? OBTW, yum.

Pavlovas. Delicious and low fat. Great with summer fruit.
Hello. My name is Carrie, and I...I....still like oaked Chardonnay. (Please don't judge.)

Pan-fried till lightly browned then cut into strips for an oil-and-vinegar based potato salad.

Why do you have leftover egg whites when making Eggs Benedict?
Don't you use the whole Egg?
I have never tasted Eggs Benedict made with just egg yolks.

Eggs benedict are actually made both ways. I saw a Regis Philban show recently with top chef Eric Ripert, who made eggs benidict and he said "no whites". Matter of choice, I guess.

Surely the surplus white is from the hollandaise.

How do you cook only the egg yolk when making eggs benedict? Do you poach it?
I still can't imagine this egg benedict!

I had eight last night and toyed with a lemon meringue pie. In the end, I made large meringues which went marshmallowy in the middle, and served them with 120 proof rum and raisin icecream.

Elementary, my dear Watson. What do you put on Eggs Benedict? Hollandaise sauce made with egg yolks, butter, lemon juice and salt.
