Here we go!
I've been throwing around the idea of a cooking blog for quite some time now. My love for cooking began at quite a young age, helping my mom, dad, or aunt in the kitchen. Then came my love for food, which only made my love for cooking grow stronger. To top it off, I married a man who also loves to cook and try new food. One of our favorite ways to spend time together is cooking (and therefore eating). I enjoy trying new recipes and coming up with my own, using fresh ingredients to create homemade meals that are hearty and healthy without tasting "healthy." I feel like it would be a crime to keep these wonderful dishes to myself, and that I should share them with those around me. So without further ado, here goes my first attempt at blogging!
Eggs Benedict is a breakfast favorite in my house. The combination of a freshly toasted English muffin, warm slices of Canadian bacon, and a perfectly poached egg all smothered in Hollandaise sauce makes for a deliciously satisfying way to start your day. But there's one part of this equation that can be terribly intimidating - the perfectly poached egg part. I'm hear to tell you, don't fret! After facing much fear and intimidation of my own, I finally faced the challenge and conquered, all thanks to Julia Child's method for poaching eggs.
