How to Make Miso Eggs Benedict

  1. Toast 2 English muffins halves. Set aside.
  2. In a saucepan, gently whisk together 2 tablespoons white miso paste, 1 tablespoon water, and 1 teaspoon rice vinegar. Simmer for 2 minutes, until slightly thickened. Set aside.
  3. Bring a saucepan of water to a gentle simmer. Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar to the simmering water.
  4. Crack 2 large eggs, one at a time, into individual small bowls.
  5. Carefully create a gentle swirl in the simmering water and gently slip the eggs into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes for runny yolks, or longer for firmer yolks.
  6. While the eggs are poaching, prepare the hollandaise sauce (see separate hollandaise recipe – instructions below).
  7. Once the eggs are cooked, remove them carefully with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  8. Spread the miso glaze evenly over the toasted English muffin halves.
  9. Top each muffin half with a poached egg.
  10. Spoon generous amounts of hollandaise sauce over the eggs.
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
