The sandwich comes together better if you also pan-toast the bread ... with a perfectly cooked over-easy egg. The combo of the creamy yolk and savory Spam is a 5-star experience regardless ...

Lower the heat and gently simmer (low boil) for 5 1/2 minutes. Set your timer. While the eggs simmer, toast the bread in your toaster until golden brown, then spread the tops with butter.

To serve, put the slice of toast in the middle of the plate. Spoon over the scrambled eggs, place the smoked salmon on top and season with lots of black pepper.
