Reduce the heat to a gentle, steady simmer (but keep checking to ensure the water stays on the boil). This should give set whites and soft, runny yolks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Get a bowl of cold water ready next to the saucepan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the final 2\u20133 minutes, toast the bread until lightly golden on both sides. Spread with the Bertolli, taking it right to the edges. Cut into five even fingers, <strong>leaving all the crusts on<\/strong>, and arrange on a plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As soon as the timer sounds, transfer the eggs to the bowl of cold water for about 1 minute, just until cool enough to handle. Gently tap the shells all over and carefully peel, keeping the eggs whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Halve the eggs lengthways and place the four halves on top of the toast fingers. Grind a little black pepper over the eggs.  Spoon any escaped yolk over the toast and serve straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/granary.food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/6dd2234e-c688-4c96-b53c-2aa7914e57b9-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/granary.food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/6dd2234e-c688-4c96-b53c-2aa7914e57b9-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/granary.food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/6dd2234e-c688-4c96-b53c-2aa7914e57b9-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/granary.food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/6dd2234e-c688-4c96-b53c-2aa7914e57b9-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/granary.food\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/6dd2234e-c688-4c96-b53c-2aa7914e57b9.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients Method Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil, with enough water to cover the eggs by about 2cm.
