Norwegian Eggs Benedict

I just love poached eggs with smoked salmon: The combination of these flavors scream brunch! (Don’t forget the Bloody Mary accompaniment.)

4 cups water

1 tablespoon white vine vinegar

4 large eggs

4 slices brioche, toasted and buttered

1 cup baby spinach

4 large smoked salmon slices

Salt and pepper, to taste

• Bring water to just under boiling in a large pot. Add vinegar.
• Crack eggs, one at a time, into water; simmer approx. 2 minutes or until the egg whites turn all white.
• Remove from water; place on paper towels to dry.
• Place spinach, salmon and egg on each slice of toast.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve while egg is hot.
