Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Gluten-free bread
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter or dairy-free spread
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh chives or parsley
Instructions
Fill a medium-sized saucepan with about 3 inches of water and heat it over medium-high heat until it simmers gently.
Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to the water. This helps the egg whites coagulate quickly.
Crack each egg into a small cup or ramekin to make it easier to slide into the water.
Using a spoon, stir the simmering water gently to create a gentle whirlpool in the center of the saucepan.
Carefully slide one egg into the center of the whirlpool. Repeat with the second egg.
Allow the eggs to poach for about 3-4 minutes for a runny yolk or 5-6 minutes for a firmer yolk.
While the eggs are poaching, toast the gluten-free bread slices to your desired level of crispness.
Spread butter or dairy-free spread over the hot toast for added flavor.
Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon, allowing any excess water to drip away.
Place one poached egg onto each slice of toasted bread.
Season the eggs with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Garnish with freshly chopped chives or parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
