What you need

Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.

Lower the egg into boiling water for six minutes exactly. Toast and butter the bread, cut it into long fingers. Crack the top off the egg and dip.

Six minutes feels much longer when you're the one watching the clock.

Six minutes. Not seven. Seven is a different breakfast.
