Fried Eggs with Brown Butter

Lightly butter six individual shirred-egg dishes. Break two fresh eggs into each dish; place them on the range and cook for three minutes. Remove them from the fire. Place one and a half tablespoons melted butter in a frying pan, set it on a brisk fire and fry to a light brown colour, then add one teaspoon good vinegar. Shuffle the pan slightly so that the butter and vinegar will be well mixed, pour it evenly over the eggs and serve.
