Ingredients

  • servings pepper black freshly ground
  • slices bread country-style
  •  eggs room temperature
  • slices pancetta thin
  • servings salt 
  • 1.5 quarts water 
  • teaspoon citrus champagne vinegar 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • sauce pan
  • sieve
  • blender
  • broiler
  • stove
  • slotted spoon
  • grill pan
  • funnel

Directions

  1. Preheat a broiler or a lightly oiled stove-top grill pan.
  2. Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Salt the water, add the vinegar, and then lower the heat so the water barely bubbles. One at a time, break the eggs into a custard cup or small bowl, and then pour into the water, trying not to break the yolks. With a slotted spoon, gently lift and shape the whites around the egg yolks until glazed but still liquid, about 2 1/2 minutes longer.
  3. While the eggs poach, toast the bread slices on both sides. Put a slice of toast on each of 2 plates. Immediately top with the prosciutto so that it softens from the heat of the toast. Lift the poached eggs out of the water with a slotted spoon, letting excess water drip off, and then place an egg on each toast.
  4. Drizzle each toast with 2 teaspoons chive oil and then grind a little black pepper over each.
  5. Serve immediately.
  6. cups coarsely chopped fresh chives
  7. cup olive oil
  8. Place chives and olive oil in a blender and puree. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer.
  9. Pour through a funnel into a bottle for storage. Cover and refrigerate. Use within 2 weeks.
