Ingredients

• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 pieces Fresh bread rolls (Kaiser rolls or similar)
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Fruit preserves (apricot or strawberry)
• 2 tablespoons Coffee (ground, for brewing)
• 0.25 cup Milk (optional, for coffee)
• 1 teaspoon Sugar (optional, for coffee)

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by preparing the soft-boiled eggs. Place two eggs in a small saucepan and cover them with cold water.

Step 2

2. Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer the eggs for 5-6 minutes for soft-boiled consistency.

Step 3

3. While the eggs are cooking, warm the fresh bread rolls in an oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes or until slightly crisp on the outside and warm on the inside.

Step 4

4. Brew a cup of Viennese-style coffee. Use 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per cup of hot water. Brew using your preferred method (French press, drip coffee maker, or stovetop espresso). Optionally, add milk and sugar to taste.

Step 5

5. Once the eggs are done cooking, remove them from the pan and place them in a bowl of ice water for 1 minute to stop the cooking process. Gently crack the shell and serve the eggs in egg cups for easy eating.

Step 6

6. Arrange the bread rolls on a plate with butter and fruit preserves on the side.

Step 7

7. Serve the soft-boiled eggs, bread rolls, preserves, butter, and coffee together for a classic Vienna-style breakfast experience.

Step 8

8. Enjoy your Vienna Breakfast, taking time to savor the simple yet elegant flavors.
