Matcha Poached Eggs and Toast with Matcha Salt

Matcha Poached Eggs and Toast with Matcha Salt is a simple, elegant breakfast. The matcha adds a subtle earthy, umami note that lifts the richness of the yolk, turning a classic toast‑and‑eggs combo into a refined, Japanese‑inspired bite perfect for slow mornings or brunch.


Ingredients

  • Dab of unsalted butter for the poaching cups or 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 4 large eggs, preferably organic
  • 2 slices toast
  • Match Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper


Instructions

  1. Butter the poaching cups if you’re using a dedicated egg poacher. Alternatively, bring a small
    pot of water to a simmer, add the vinegar, and carefully crack the eggs into the simmering
    water. Poach the eggs until the yolks are about halfway between liquid and solid, 4 to 5
    minutes for both methods.
  2. Gently turn them out on a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. Roll them onto a
    warmed plate or arrange on the toast.
  3. Generously season with Matcha Salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve at once.
