This is simple. This is good. I promise.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Vinegar Of Choice
- 2 whole Fresh Eggs
- 1 whole English Muffin, Toasted
- 1 ounce, weight Gouda, Shredded (or Favorite Cheese, And More Or Less To Taste)
- Pinch Or Two Of Dill
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
Preparation
Fill a fry/sauté pan approximately 1 1/2-2″ deep with water. Add salt and vinegar to poaching water. (Note: Salt and vinegar amounts are approximates and based on 4 cups of water. Adjust aAccordingly.)
Bring water to a low boil over medium-high heat, and reduce heat to barely a simmer. (If you like to measure things, 180-190°F would be perfect temperature.)
Crack eggs into individual bowls/saucers. Gently slide eggs one at a time into the poaching water. Using a spoon, gently nudge the egg whites toward center of yolk. Cook for 2-3 minutes for a semi-soft yolk or 3-4 minutes for a firmer-set yolk.
With a spoon, remove eggs one at a time and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Using one half of toasted English Muffin, add a little of the shredded cheese, then the poached egg, and top with a little more cheese. Season with a pinch of dill, salt and pepper.
