I love poached eggs on toast, but never knew quite how to make them till I found these easy instructions in my 1979 Pillsbury Cookbook, a cookbook which I've had for many years.
Poached Eggs on Toast
Poached Eggs on Toast
1 slice of bread (toasted & buttered)
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
black pepper, add according to taste
dried parsley flakes, optional
1.) Lightly grease a deep skillet, or a saucepan. (I spray the skillet or saucepan with a no-stick cooking spray.)
2.) Add 1-inch of water to the skillet, but if using the saucepan, add 1-1/2-inches of water.
3.) To the water, add the 1/4 teaspoon of salt; then heat water just to boiling.
4.) Break eggs into 2 separate custard dishes.
5.) When the water comes to a boil, carefully slip the eggs into the skillet or saucepan.
6.) Cover the pan or skillet, and cook over low heat for 3 minutes.
7.) Remove poached eggs with a slotted spoon or pancake turner.
8.) Serve poached eggs on buttered toast, then season with black pepper and a light sprinkle of dried parsley flakes.
9.) Yields: 1 or 2 servings
