Herb-Poached Eggs with Hollandaise on Toasted Sourdough
Delight in a sophisticated yet comforting meal where perfectly poached eggs are bathed in a silky, herb-infused hollandaise sauce and served atop a crisp slice of toasted sourdough. This dish harmonizes rich, slightly tangy flavors with the freshness of chopped herbs, making every bite a celebration of both simplicity and elegance.
INGREDIENTS
5 large eggs
1 egg yolk
1 slice sourdough bread
1/2 tsp unsalted butter
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh herbs (chives/dill/parsley)
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a gentle simmer. Add a dash of salt.
Crack each egg into a small cup, then gently slide them one by one into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and set on a warm plate.
In a small heatproof bowl, combine the egg yolk with lemon juice. Place the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water (creating a double boiler) and whisk continuously.
Slowly add the 1/2 teaspoon of butter, whisking until the mixture emulsifies into a smooth, creamy hollandaise sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper, and stir in the chopped fresh herbs.
Toast the sourdough bread until it is crisp and golden.
To assemble, place the toasted sourdough on a plate, lay the poached eggs atop the toast, and drizzle generously with the warm, herb-infused hollandaise sauce. Serve immediately.
