Now we're going to start our Hollandaise sauce. Since this is just for one order of Eggs Benedict, I'll use three yolks. You can separate your eggs several different ways. One way is gently crack the shell, and go shell to shell. Try not to break the yolk. Very important for Hollandaise; don't get any egg white in your pan. You can do it the way I do it; just like this. It's quicker; just so your hands are clean, it's okay. We have our three yolks. Now we're going to move over to the stove. I have some hot water going that I'm going to use for the double boiler to cook the Hollandaise, and I'm also using the same pot for my poached eggs.
