I know avocado toast is a trendy thing, but the first time I had this at Eastport Kitchen in Annapolis, Maryland I was blown away. I've changed it up a bit, but I think it's pretty dern close. The secret is the pickled radish.
1 cup water 1 cup red wine vinegar 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar thinly sliced radishes (use a mandolin if you have one) Boil water, vinegar and sugar until sugar is completely melted. Stir in radishes and set aside to cool. 1 slice good whole grain bread 1/2 a ripe avocado thinly sliced 1 tablespoon leftover onions and peppers (I had some from an earlier recipe so I used them-they're optional) butter Sriracha, or your favorite hot sauce 1 pretty egg dash of vinegar Put about an inch of water in the bottom of a small pan and heat. You want the water to just simmer, not boil. Add in a splash of vinegar. Toast your bread. When the water is at a slow simmer crack the egg into small bowl to make sure you don't get shells or break the yolk. Stir the water with a spoon to get a small whirlpool and slide the egg in. Cook for about 3 1/2 -4 minutes until you get the doneness you like. Now build your breakfast. Butter the toast and lay is down, cover with avocado slices, then onions and peppers, then radishes. Remove egg with a slotted spoon and slide the egg onto a paper towel to drain the water. Place egg on top of the toast and dot with sriracha. Serve while still hot! The radishes will keep for-ever! Use them in salads and sandwiches. They're pretty versatile and always add a nice acidic zing to things!!!

AuthorI'm not a chef. I have no training. I just really like food. I grew up eating processed food and over time, as a grown up, decided I wanted to cook the kinds of foods I got in restaurants. I have one problem. The doctor put me on a low sodium diet. You'll find there very little if any salt/sodium in this recipes. Just add to your own taste. I will probably do things wrong/differently on this website, but hopefully we'll all learn from each other! Archives
