Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 slices bread
  • butter (should be soft enough to spread but still cold)
  • fancy utensils (optional)
  • egg cup
  • tiny spoon
  • egg cutter

Directions:

  1. Put enough water to cover egg-height in a medium-sized pot. Bring water to boil.
  2. With a large spoon, gently set eggs one at a time into boiling water. Try to do this quickly but smoothly. If they crack it isn't a disaster, but that is not the desired effect.
  3. Once all eggs are in, flip over an egg timer, or set a timer for 3 minutes exactly. Let water continue to boil.
  4. Put bread in toaster, timing it (depending on how you like your toast) so that it will be done when the 3 minutes are up.
  5. Slice toast into thin strips.
  6. Remove eggs from water and set in egg cups. (Espresso cups, shot glasses, etc., work as substitute egg cups.)
  7. Slice top off of eggs using egg cutter, or tap a butter knife at the crown of the egg and pop the top of the shell off.
  8. As you eat, butter each strip of warm toast with the cool butter and dip into the hot runny yolk of the egg.
  9. When you have finished off the yolk with your toast, use your tiny spoon to scoop out the egg whites.
  10. Enjoy your petit dejeuner!
