Poached Eggs on Toast with Ramps image

When ramps are in season, stock up and make this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Swap in any soft cheese you like: Try ricotta, cream cheese, or an oozy burrata.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound ramps
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
4 1/2"-thick slices country-style bread
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 ounces fresh goat cheese, room temperature
Flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)

Steps:

  • Cut dark-green leaves from ramps and slice crosswise 1" thick; slice bulbs and red stems crosswise 1/4" thick.
  • Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add bulbs and stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, 5-8 minutes. Add tops and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring 2" water to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat so water is at a gentle simmer and add vinegar. Crack an egg into a small bowl, then gently slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until whites of eggs in water are opaque before adding the next egg (about 30 seconds apart). Poach until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels as they are done.
  • Toast bread, brush with 2 tablespoons oil, and season with kosher salt. Spread toasts with goat cheese and top with ramps and eggs. Drizzle with more oil and season with sea salt and pepper.

This was a great recipe! I was a bit intimidated by poaching the eggs, but it was actually quite easy. The ramps added a lovely flavor to the dish. I served it on toasted whole wheat bread and it was a delicious and healthy breakfast.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ramps. I had a bunch in my fridge and I wasn't sure what to do with them. This recipe was the perfect solution.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The poached eggs were cooked well, but the ramps were a bit too overpowering for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The poached eggs were a bit runny for my taste, but the ramps were delicious. I think I'll try this recipe again with a bit less water in the poaching liquid.

I tried this recipe for brunch last weekend and it was a hit! The poached eggs were fluffy and the ramps were flavorful. I added a bit of crumbled feta cheese on top and it was delicious.
