Eggs Are Having A Moment
Cloud Eggs
Cloud eggs are a delightful and visually appealing dish that's relatively simple to make.
Here's a great recipe to get you started
Ingredients
- Eggs
- Salt
- Pepper
- Optional: Herbs (such as chives, parsley, or thyme)
- Optional: Grated cheese (such as Parmesan or cheddar)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven Set it to 375°F (190°C).
2. Separate the eggs Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks. You can do this by cracking the eggs and transferring the yolks back and forth between the shell halves, letting the whites fall into a bowl. Place each yolk into individual small dishes or cups.
3. Whip the egg whites Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This may take a few minutes.
4. Season the whites Gently fold in a pinch of salt, pepper, and any herbs you desire.
5. Form the clouds Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon the whipped egg whites onto the baking sheet in cloud-like shapes, making a small indentation in the center of each for the yolk.
6. Bake the clouds Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 3-4 minutes, until the edges of the egg whites are lightly golden.
7. Add the yolks Carefully place a yolk into the center of each cloud.
8. Finish baking Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the yolks are just set but still runny.
9. Serve Carefully transfer the cloud eggs to plates using a spatula. Sprinkle with additional salt, pepper, and grated cheese if desired.
Serve your cloud eggs immediately while they're still warm and enjoy the fluffy, flavorful goodness!
