What makes a great BEC?

The perfect BEC has crispy bacon, a soft egg with a runny yolk, melty cheese, and a toasted roll.

American cheese melts best, but sharp cheddar adds more flavor.

How do I get a runny yolk?

Nestle a whole yolk into the whisked omelette during cooking for a perfectly runny center.

What bread should I use?

A Kaiser roll is classic NYC deli style, but brioche adds richness and works beautifully.
