Lenny is in love with runny eggs. He loves runny eggs on everything

Salad, in the January issue of Bon Appetit, that I would become the golden one! It is a spin on the tradition frissee salad that we make very often.
The base of the recipe consists of frissee, radishes, thinly sliced
red onion and edamame which is then tossed with a light vinaigrette of
white balsamic and olive oil. I forgot the edamame so it was left out
this time around.
I was thrilled to read that the dressing for the salad would be a
classic hollandaise sauce. I LOVE hollandaise sauce that is prepared
perfectly – real eggs, fresh lemon juice and butter. This recipe was
definitely easier then the recipe I use as it called for adding melted
butter, which was gently whisked in, then it was heated over simmering
water. The twist to this dressing was that you add Dijon mustard at
the very end…more
