Absolutely Canonical Eggs Benedict

Sunday 15 February

Barbara's innocent-looking car carried not only veal but Canadian bacon. The real deal, known to the natives as peameal bacon, because it is rolled in cornmeal and isn't bacon. In fact, a type of very lean cured pork loin.
So for dinner rather than breakfast, classic eggs Benedict. Engmuffs, fried Canadian peameal bacon, poached eggs, lemon hollandaise, a sprinkle of cayenne. Plate-licking good.
