Savory Parmesan Pain Perdu With Poached Eggs and Greens image

I didn't include the greens when I prepared this - I was only cooking for myself and it was really the egg I wanted. But oh my gosh .. this was some tasty French toast :) Recipe is from Gourmet magazine.

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slices baguette, cut 1-inch thick on a diagonal
1 cup whole milk
3 large eggs, divided
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar, plus a few drops for cooking eggs
3 cups baby greens (2 ounces)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
  • Butter a 1-quart shallow baking dish or a 9-inch pie plate. Arrange bread in 1 layer in dish.
  • Whisk together milk, 1 egg, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour over bread. Sprinkle with cheese and press lightly to help bread absorb custard. Let stand until absorbed, 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Dot with butter and bake, uncovered, until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Bring 2 inches water to a boil with a few drops of vinegar in a small deep skillet or saucepan. Break each remaining egg into a cup and slide into water, spacing eggs apart. Poach at a bare simmer to desired doneness (we prefer firm whites with runny yolks, 2 to 3 minutes).
  • Meanwhile, toss greens with remaining 2 teaspoons vinegar, oil, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
  • Divide pain perdu between 2 plates and top with salad. Lift eggs out of poaching liquid 1 at a time with a slotted spoon and place on top of salad. Lightly season eggs with salt and pepper.

This dish was a bit too expensive for me. The ingredients were all very pricey and I didn't think the end result was worth the cost. The pain perdu was good, but the poached eggs were a bit too runny for my taste. The greens were a nice touch, but th

This dish was a bit too complicated for me. The instructions were difficult to follow and I ended up making a mess of it. The pain perdu was soggy and the poached eggs were overcooked. The greens were the only thing that was good about this dish.

I made this dish for my family and they all loved it! The pain perdu was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly and the greens were tender and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

The pain perdu was a bit dry for my taste. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly and the greens were tender and flavorful. I think this dish would be better if the pain perdu was soaked in a custard mixture before cooking.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The parmesan cheese didn't add much flavor and the poached eggs were a bit runny for my taste. The greens were a nice addition, but they didn't do enough to save the dish.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The parmesan cheese and poached eggs were a bit too heavy for me. The greens were a nice touch, but they didn't do enough to balance out the richness of the other ingredients.
