📝 Ingredients (Serves 4):
- 🥚 8 large eggs
- 🍶 10 cl (1/4 cup) white vinegar

📋 Directions:
- 🥚 Poach the Eggs:
Bring 1.5 liters (6 cups) of water and the white vinegar to a simmer in a large pot. Crack one egg into a small glass and gently slide it into the simmering water. Poach each egg for 5 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon. Place the eggs in warm ramekins to keep them heated. - 🍲 Prepare the Chive Sauce:

Off the heat, stir in the chopped chives (reserve a few for garnish), light cream, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Whisk vigorously to create a smooth, emulsified sauce. - 🍽️ Assemble and Serve:
Carefully place the poached eggs on warm plates. Drizzle with the chive sauce, garnish with the reserved chive sprigs, and sprinkle with crushed pink peppercorns. Serve warm and enjoy!
