Instructions:

1. Prepare the Eggs:

- Poach the duck eggs by bringing a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Add a splash of white vinegar to the water.

- Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel to drain excess water.

2. Saute the Spinach:

- In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped spinach until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

3. Assemble the Benedict:

- On each toasted English muffin half, layer a slice of smoked duck or Canadian bacon, followed by a portion of sautéed spinach.

- Carefully place a poached duck egg on top of each muffin half.

4. Drizzle with Hollandaise Sauce:

- Warm the Hollandaise sauce and drizzle it generously over each poached egg. The velvety texture of the sauce complements the richness of the duck eggs.

5. Garnish and Serve:

- Sprinkle chopped fresh chives over the Benedict for a burst of freshness and color.

- Serve the Duck Egg Florentine Benedict immediately, allowing the runny yolk to mingle with the other flavors.
