Soft-Boiled Egg, Brussels Sprouts & Asparagus

The hardships and trials symbolized by the long night will slowly fade, and soon a day, a daylight, of hope will arrive. So let's all eat a hearty breakfast together and greet the solstice sun with full energy. Drizzle olive oil in a pan and sear the boiled Brussels sprouts and asparagus. Plate them together with a soft-boiled egg and finish with a dressing of olive oil, whole-grain mustard, and white wine vinegar. #SoftBoiledEgg know-how -Put the eggs in a pan or pot and pour in water until they're about half submerged.
