Introduction

A mighty example of the power of a sweet and salty combination. The egg – particularly its soft, mellow yolk – sits between the two tastes, simultaneously tempering and revelling in them.

Ingredients

Around 30g (1oz)’nduja
1 mediumegg, at room temperature
1 piece ofwell-toasted sourdough
1 tbsprunny honey

Method

Ensure the ’nduja is closer to room than fridge temperature, so that it is spreadable. Lower the egg into a saucepan of boiling water and simmer for 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice-cold water, or chill under a cold running tap, then peel and dab dry. Spread the ’nduja thickly over hot toast. Drizzle with honey in similarly generous fashion. Place the egg on top, encouraging the yolk to spill or smudge over the toast once cut in half.

ALSO CONSIDER Using toasted crumpets or English muffins as the base. Some picked thyme or crisp-fried sage. Poached or fried eggs, or ’nduja and honey soldiers for dippy eggs.
