Frequently asked questions

How long does Golden Egg and Smoked Salmon Toast take?
About 15 minutes in total, with 5 minutes of prep and 10 minutes of cooking. The eggs scramble gently in butter while the bread toasts, so everything is ready at once.
Is Golden Egg and Smoked Salmon Toast vegetarian?
No, it is topped with hot-smoked salmon alongside the scrambled eggs, so it is not suitable for a vegetarian diet.
How do I keep scrambled eggs soft and creamy?
Cook them over medium-low heat, stir continuously and take the pan off while the eggs still look slightly wet. They finish setting on the hot toast.
What can I use instead of chives on the toast?
Swap them for finely sliced spring onion greens or fresh dill. Both add a fresh, mild onion or herby note that suits smoked salmon.
Can I use sourdough instead of wholemeal bread?
Yes, sourdough toasts up crisp and sturdy and holds the eggs and salmon well. Drizzle it with a little olive oil before toasting.
