Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Coat 4 small bowls with nonstick cooking spray. Separate the eggs and put the whites into a medium bowl and the yolks in the small bowls (1 yolk per bowl). Add a large pinch of salt to the egg whites and beat with an electric mixer on low speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Dollop 4 large spoonfuls of the egg whites onto the prepared baking sheet and make a small well in the middle of each with the back of a spoon. Bake the whites until they are firm, no longer wet and just beginning to turn brown, about 6 minutes. Gently pour 1 yolk into the well of each white. Bake until the edges of the yolk just start to set while still being runny, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt.
- Serve on top of buttered brioche toast.

CHEF JOHN'S CLOUD EGGS
You've probably seen these things blowing up on social media recently, and by recently, I mean like 2 years ago. These are very easy to do, very fun to make, super cool to look at, and very enjoyable to eat. This could also be a pretty cool menu item for a Mother's Day brunch. Serve on generously buttered toast with a pinch of cayenne and a sprinkle of coarse sea salt.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®) and butter lightly.
- Crack 1 egg into a clean hand and then separate carefully by letting the egg white drip down between your fingers into a large bowl. Reserve the yolk in a separate, smaller bowl. Repeat with second egg.
- Pour vinegar into the egg whites, add salt, and whip with a whisk until we have relatively firm, but not dry, peaks.
- Spoon onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not too wide, as we want some height here. Shape as desired and make a small depression in the top centers using a spoon for yolks.
- Bake in center of the preheated oven until they just start to take on some golden color, 5 to 6 minutes. Add yolks and bake until yolks are heated through, but still runny, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve on butter toast.

Tips:
- Use fresh eggs for the best results. Older eggs may not whip up as well.
- Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping them. This will help them reach their full volume.
- Whip the egg whites until they are stiff peaks. This means that when you lift the whisk out of the bowl, the peaks of the egg whites should stand straight up.
- Fold the egg yolks into the egg whites gently. Overmixing can cause the egg whites to deflate.
- Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the egg mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. This will help you create the cloud-like shape of the eggs.
- Pipe the egg mixture onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Make sure to leave enough space between the eggs so that they don't touch.
- Bake the eggs at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
- Serve the eggs immediately with your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Italian cloud eggs are a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special breakfast or brunch. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite toppings. Whether you like them sweet or savory, Italian cloud eggs are sure to please everyone at the table.
