Method

1. Toast² the bread in a dry skillet 1–2 minutes per side until just crisp.

2. For the sauce, separate half the yolk, place the bowl over a double boiler, add 5 g lemon⁵ juice, and a pinch of salt.

3. Whip the yolk 2–3 minutes, gradually folding in softened butter⁴ until smooth and thick.

4. Bring water in a saucepan almost to a boil, add vinegar, and set up a strainer.

5. Crack the egg into a cup, gently slide it into the water, and poach 3 minutes until the white sets but the yolk stays runny.

6. Top the toast² with salmon, poached egg, and sauce, then garnish with parsley and cracked pepper.
