Making your own Eggs Benedict, completely from scratch, could be only 12 hours away, and we can thank Barbara of Winos and Foodies for the recipe, and Sam from Becks & Posh for testing the recipe and posting more drool-worthy pics. (The original inspiration was an article in New Zealand's Listener magazine.) And who knew English muffins were cooked in a skillet? I sure didn't. They have to rise overnight, but the no-oven thing is great for a hot, lazy summer morning. And what better way to show off some fresh local eggs?

Muffins are sometimes called "American Muffins"

It looks like there's plenty of ways to use starter at that site to explore.
