This is THE breakfast classic of Viennese coffeehouses, where it has been served for many generations. I prefer to eat it with a piece or two of buttered toast and some strong coffee.

Cooking Instructions
1.
Instead of boiling the Eggland's Best Classic Eggs (5) covered in water, steam them in an egg cooker or Chinese steamer; the steam lets you peel the soft eggs easier without breaking them. However, if you don't have a steamer you can just boil them. Cooking for 6 minutes should give you a soft-boiled egg, 6 1/2 for a slightly firmer but still "jammy" center.
2.
When the eggs are done to your preference, shock for a second under cold water, carefully peel, then remove them whole from the shells; alternatively, cut them in half over the glass, then spoon the egg into the glass.
3.
Season the egg with Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste), and top with a dollop of Butter (to taste). Serve with generously buttered raisin bread and a cup of coffee for a delightful breakfast.
