This will impress your Aunt Bee at the next family gathering. I love eggs and mustard together. From the March 2003 issue of Better Homes and Garden. Experiment with different vinegars.

Time 16m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard (Iglehoffer from Oregon! is one of my favorites)
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 large fresh eggs
1 teaspoon butter or 1 teaspoon margarine
2 cups assorted mixed greens or 2 cups fresh Baby Spinach, washed and drained well
2 slices dark rye bread, thinly sliced on the diagonal and toasted
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • NOTE: *If you own an egg-poaching pan, use it to prepare the eggs.
  • In a small microwave-safe container, combine the mustard, vinegar, and olive oil. Microwave 30 seconds or until the mixture boils. Set aside.
  • In the meantime, bring a large pot of water to boiling. Break each egg carefully into a measuring cup and gently slide the egg into the water. Repeat with remaining eggs.
  • Cover pan and simmer eggs approximately 6-9 minutes or until the whites are completely set and the yolks thicken but are not completely hard.
  • Meanwhile, in another small skillet, heat the butter and lightly wilt the mixed greens or spinach for no more than 15 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Arrange the toasted rye bread onto 4 salad plates. Next, arrange the sauteed salad greens or baby spinach onto each plate. Top each serving with a poached egg. Finally, drizzle with the mustard dressing.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
