Hollandaise foam

Bring the vinegar, shallot and peppercorns to the boil in a small pan, then reduce by half over a low heat. Strain through a fine sieve into a bowl, gently squeezing the shallot with a spoon.

Add the egg and the egg yolk and mix well with a whisk. Melt the butter in a small pan and bring to the boil. Gradually add the melted butter to the mixture, stirring constantly.

Add salt, cayenne pepper and lemon juice to taste.

Put the hollandaise into a whipping siphon. Charge the siphon with a cartridge. Shake vigorously and keep warm.

Spinach

Sweat the shallot in butter in a large pan over a medium heat until translucent. Add the spinach and sweat until it wilts. Season with the other ingredients to taste.

Serving

Toast the slices of plaited bread. Spoon the spinach on top.
