Poached Egg with Avocado Toast
INGREDIENTS
2 very fresh eggs 2 tbs vinegar (any kind works) 2 slices whole grain bread 1 avocado handful of greens: spinach/chard/arugula salt and pepper drizzle of balsamic reduction
METHOD
Mash avocado with 1 tsp olive oil
Bring a medium non-stick saucepan full of water (about 2 1/2-3 inches deep) and 2 tablespoons of vinegar to a full boil under a lid.
Break eggs carefully into individual ramekins.
Turn off heat and immediately add eggs gently. To add the eggs tip the corner into the hot water and allow the water to pool into the ramekin. Jiggle the cup slightly to let it start to set the egg, then pour out into the pan. Replace lid. Set timer for three-four minutes for runny eggs, four-five minutes for medium. Do not lift lid!
Poached eggs are best when the eggs are farm fresh. Pick up your eggs at your local farmers' market and bread baked fresh from a local bakery.
