Toppings

Method

Preparing the Bread

  1. 1

    Toast the Bread

    In a toaster or under the broiler, toast the Gaeta olive bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy. Set aside.

Poaching the Eggs

  1. 2

    Prepare the Poaching Water

    In a medium saucepan, fill with water to about 3 inches deep. Add the white vinegar and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

  2. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    Crack each egg into a small bowl. Gently slide the eggs into the simmering water, one at a time. Poach for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs and place them on a paper towel to drain excess water.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 4

    Layer the Ingredients

    On each slice of toasted Gaeta olive bread, layer a slice of prosciutto, a handful of fresh arugula, and some pieces of mozzarella di bufala.

  2. 5

    Add the Poached Eggs

    Carefully place a poached egg on top of each assembled slice. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
