Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 5 ounces baby spinach
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4 slices white bread toasted
  • 8 large slices smoked salmon
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of water to a simmer.
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and stir until it’s wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide spinach among toasts and top each with 2 slices of the salmon.
  • Add vinegar to the simmering water.
  • Crack an egg into a cup and gently pour it into the water. Repeat with another egg. Simmer until whites are set, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels. Trim away the ragged white pieces and discard. Poach the remaining 2 eggs.
  • Place a poached egg on top of each salmon toast and serve right away.
