English muffins are so versatile! I tend to toast them & more (crispy),
with butter then topped with raspberry jam. There are many other methods to use English muffins from simply toasted to something fancy akin to eggs benedict (sp?). One aspect I've noticed at restaurants when it comes to English muffins is - they're way undercooked - as in 'limpy'! Comparing a 'sausage english muffin' vs. biscuis english muffins isn't easy - the various vendors are too many! But then, all are personal preferences. Some/Many places are better than others!!! Sky, who loves a great breakfast!!! ;D Ultra Ultimate Kitchen Rule - Use the Timer! Ultimate Kitchen Rule -- Cook's Choice!! |

One of my favorite uses is to spread an English muffin with garlic butter and then top with a slice of tomato and cheddar cheese & microwave till the cheese starts to met. The elderly relative likes a thin slice of red onion added. -- Mr. Joseph Paul Littleshoes Esq. Domine, dirige nos. Let the games begin! http://fredeeky.typepad.com/fredeeky.../sf_anthem.mp3 |

I used to do something like that in the oven, sometimes with some green pepper added. I didn't have a microwave in those days. |

Often, I'll skip the tomato and just melt cheese on the toasted, buttered muffin. I've also discovered that a nice jam with melted cheese is surprisingly good. Barry in Indy |

If im making an afternoon or evening snack i will toast the muffin and add some avocado if i have it on hand, if i have just woke up i put the untoasted muffin in the microwave after i put the coffee in the boiling water and they are both ready to consume a minute or 2 later. Im also very fond of a nice thick slice of sourdough bread, spread with mayo & mustard and layered with cheese and deli thin sliced meat then nuke till cheese is runny and serve with a knife and fork. -- Mr. Joseph Paul Littleshoes Esq.

One of my emergency suppers when there's no time to cook. Course, better not be going out in company that night. |

It was an English muffin served in halves, topped with a thick slice of tomato, a scoop of tuna salad and a slice of cheese, melted over the top. Next to impossible to eat unless you used a knife and fork. But oh so good! |

The venerable Pacific Dining Car in downtown Los Angeles has Eggs Sardou on the menu - my old boss' favorite.
