Ingredients

For Poached Eggs:

Instructions

For poached eggs: Watch video posted above to learn to poach eggs

  1. Set a small pot of water to boil. Water should be 3" deep. Add 1 tablespoon white vinegar to water, bring to a rolling boil.

  2. While waiting for water to boil, cut tomatoes

  3. Grab a small bowl and carefully crack two eggs into bowl, set aside

  4. When water is boiling, pop toast into the toaster

  5. Take a large spoon in one hand and the bowl with eggs in the other, swirl boiling water smoothly and quickly until a vortex forms and pour those eggs right in the center. Poach eggs 2-3 minutes for runny, 3 1/2 minutes for slightly runny, 4-5 minutes for cooked through.

  6. Remove eggs from water with a slotted spoon and set on a paper towel, gently turn

  7. Butter toast, place eggs, greens and tomatoes on toast. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper.
