How to Make Smashed Eggs on Toast

1. Boil and Cool Eggs

Fill a large saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Carefully lower the eggs into the saucepan using a slotted spoon, keeping a low simmer to prevent cracking. Cook for exactly 6.5 minutes for a jammy yolk. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water for 2 minutes to cool, then peel.

2. Prepare Toast

Toast the bread slices until golden brown, then spread each slice with butter and a teaspoon of whole-grain mustard.

3. Assemble and Garnish

Place one soft-boiled egg on each slice of toast. Chop the egg gently with a knife to spread the yolk. Sprinkle minced dill, kosher salt, black pepper, and coarse sea salt or fleur de sel to taste.
