Who decided that English muffins would be the official starch of poached egg brunch dishes? While nooks and crannies are awesome, this alleged "muffin" is kind of a soggy puck of dough a few minutes into that Benedict you waited so long for, isn't it? You can tell us.

We think poached eggs need to take a little break from this relationship. So we borrowed a few ideas from France, Mexico, India and yes there's one recipe for Eggs Benedict in there because it's still great, no offense, to shake things up. It's always good to broaden one's horizons. Especially if you can't poach an egg.
