Hollandaise sauce
    2 tablespoons  tarragon vinegar
    1 tablespoon  onion, minced
    3  peppercorns
    4  egg yolks
    1 cup  butter, clarified
      Eggs
    1 10-ounce package  frozen spinach, chopped, cooked, and drained
    8  artichoke hearts
    16  anchovy fillets
    8  eggs
    4 tablespoons  boiled ham, chopped
      black olives, sliced

Hollandaise sauce: Put vinegar, 1 tablespoon water, onion, and peppercorns in medium saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until reduced to 1 teaspoon; remove peppercorns. Let cool. Whisk in egg yolks over very low heat until frothy. Gradually whisk in clarified butter. Whisk until light and fluffy. Keep sauce warm by placing pan in warm water while preparing eggs.

Eggs: Divide spinach and place on artichoke bottoms. Arrange on warmed serving platter.

Crisscross 2 anchovy fillets over each spinach-filled bottom. [You can omit the anchovies if you have something against the salty, slimy things.]

Poach eggs, 4 at a time, in salted, simmering water. Remove with slotted spoon. Place 1 egg on each artichoke.

Spoon sauce over each egg. Sprinkle with chopped ham and olive slices. Serve immediately.

Makes 4, 2-egg servings.

A great way to enhance a poached egg. From Pauline Viviano.
