Meanwhile, bring about 1 L of water to a boil, add the vinegar, and remove from heat. Crack each egg into a cup and gently slide it into the vinegar water. Poach for 4-5 minutes (the water should not be boiling).

Clean the mushrooms; leave whole or cut into pieces depending on size. In a large pan with hot butter, sauté for 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve on plates. Lift the poached egg from the water with a slotted spoon and place in the center. Lightly season. Arrange the bread sticks and sprinkle with chives before serving.
