Recipe: Black Truffle Salami Brunch
A simple brunch elevated by Black Truffle Salami
When you start with ingredients this good, even the simplest brunch becomes something special. This recipe brings together creamy avocado, perfectly cooked eggs and a generous layer of our award-winning Black Truffle Salami.
Serves 2
Ingredients
Black Truffle Salami & eggs on toast
2 slices brown or rye bread
1 large avocado
Juice of half a lemon
1/2 tsp Sea salt & black pepper to season
2 medium free range eggs
8 slices Black Truffle Salami
1 tbsp salted butter
METHOD
STEP 1
Poach your eggs. Bring water to a gentle simmer. Fill a saucepan with about 8–10cm of water. Bring it to a gentle simmer — you want small bubbles rising from the bottom, not a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar. This helps the egg white set quickly and hold its shape.
Do not add salt at this stage — it can cause the white to feather. Crack the egg into a small ramekin or cup. This makes it easier to slide gently into the water. Use a spoon to stir the water in a circular motion to create a gentle whirlpool. This helps wrap the white around the yolk.
Bring the bowl close to the water and slide the egg in carefully. Cook for:
3 minutes for a soft, runny yolk
4 minutes for slightly firmer
5 minutes for a more set centre
Keep the water at a very gentle simmer throughout. Lift the egg out with a slotted spoon. Rest briefly on kitchen paper to remove excess water
STEP 2
Whilst your eggs cool mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt and pepper and lightly toast your bread and warm your hollandaise sauce.
STEP 3
Begin to build your dish. Butter your toast, add heaps of smashed avocado, layer with sliced of Black Truffle Salami, topped with your soft boiled eggs (pop each a little with a sharp knife so the yolk oozes out), sprinkle with season to taste.
