Latke Benedict is a delightful interplay of savory, rich, and tangy flavors, with a creamy texture that's both comforting and sophisticated.
The base of the dish, the latkes, offer a savory, slightly crispy potato flavor, enhanced by the oil they're fried in. Pimento cheese adds a tangy, creamy, and subtly spicy element. The poached eggs contribute a rich, yolky flavor and a smooth texture. Finally, the hollandaise sauce provides a buttery, lemony, and emulsified richness that ties all the flavors together. The overall flavor profile is a balanced combination of salty, savory, creamy, and tangy.

Crispy Latkes
Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the shredded potatoes before frying to ensure crispy latkes. Use a neutral oil with a high smoke point for frying, and don't overcrowd the pan.
Perfect Poached Eggs
Use very fresh eggs for poaching. Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the simmering water to help the egg whites coagulate. Create a gentle whirlpool in the water before adding the eggs to keep them from spreading.
Smooth Hollandaise
Use clarified butter for a smoother hollandaise. Whisk constantly while adding the melted butter in a slow, steady stream. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a teaspoon of warm water to thin it out.
Pimento Cheese
Use high quality pimento cheese, or make it from scratch with your favorite cheese blend. Avoid using overly sharp cheddar to achieve the right flavor balance with other elements.
