Late but here...

Jenn and Jill have challenged The Daring Cooks to learn to perfect the technique of poaching an egg. They chose Eggs Benedict recipe from Alton Brown, Oeufs en Meurette from Cooking with Wine by Anne Willan, and Homemade Sundried Tomato & Pine Nut Seitan Sausages (poached) courtesy of Trudy of Veggie num num.

I really enjoyed this recipe! It was a new technique for me and super fun. My hubby loved it as well :) Luckily, I got the poached egg right the first time... I've heard it can be a bit tricky. I wasn't in my house when I made this as we have been moving for the past month and there was no whisk ( I know, right?!). The hollandaise sauce was interesting but I eventually figured out a spoon and an extra bit of muscle would suffice. All in all, it was tasty and fun to make. I would probably save it for a big breakfast rather than going through all the trouble for just two but I'll definitely be using it again.

In other news... My husband, Isaac and I are in our new apartment in Washington and are in the process of unpacking everything :( It is so nice to be in our OWN space though. Ahhh to have my own kitchen! So, posts should be way less sporadic now that I am in a more stable environment and we are all getting into the grove of things.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year :)
