Eggs Hussarde is a classic Creole dish that originated in New Orleans. This decadent brunch item features a base of English muffins topped with Canadian bacon, poached eggs, and a rich marchand de vin sauce. The dish is said to have been created by Chef Antoine Alciatore at Antoine's Restaurant in the French Quarter of New Orleans. The sauce, made with red wine, beef broth, and shallots, is the star of the dish, adding depth and flavor to the eggs and bacon. Today, the best version of Eggs Hussarde can still be found in New Orleans, where chefs pay homage to the traditional recipe while adding their own modern twists. For a unique alternative, some chefs substitute the Canadian bacon with Andouille sausage, infusing the dish with a spicy, smoky flavor. Whether enjoyed at a historic restaurant or a trendy brunch spot, Eggs Hussarde continues to be a beloved dish that showcases the rich culinary heritage of New Orleans.
