Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 2 tbs Black Truffle Oil – Profine Food Stores
- 4 Pocket Breads
- 8 ounces cooked salmon (broiled, poached or oven-baked works just as well)
- 1 cup Hollandaise sauce
- Fresh parsley, chives or dill (optional)
- White Truffle salt -Profine Food Stores
- freshly ground black pepper
- Special equipment: fine mesh strainer, instant-read thermometer.
Directions
- Toast 4 breads and cut in half. Top with the salmon. Reserve.
- Heat a medium pot of water until just simmering, then turn down the heat until it’s almost boiling – the water should be moving but not bubbling. Tip: use an instant read thermometer, you want the temperature to be 80 C. No more, no less!
- Break one egg onto a small bowl, then pour it, gently, over a fine mesh strainer. Swirl, removing any loose egg whites that fall through the strainer – that will look messy on the final poached eggs.
- Once strained, very slowly and gently place the egg into the water. With a wooden spoon, swirl water around, for about 10 seconds until the eggs begin to set. Repeat for all four eggs Stirring occasionally, cook for about 4 minutes – eggs whites should be fully cooked while yolks should be soft.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove each egg from the water – gently! Place one egg on top of each muffin, then drizzle a good amount of Hollandaise sauce while you mixed it with Black Truffle oil to cover the egg , add your White truffle salt on them and done with bread on top .
