Number Of Ingredients 6

8 large brown or white eggs (or a mix)
1/4 cup heavy cream
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Creme fraiche, or sour cream, for serving
Salmon roe or sevruga caviar (or both), for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Hold an egg in one hand, tapered end up. Place an egg topper over the top, and squeeze, using a scissor motion. Discard top of egg shell. Pour egg into a medium bowl. Repeat with remaining eggs. Boil shells 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a wire rack. Let dry, cut sides down.
  • Whisk together eggs and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add eggs. Using a rubber spatula, stir to create curds and slide eggs from edges to center. Cook until set, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Transfer eggs to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain round tip. Pipe eggs into shells. Transfer shells to egg cups. Top with creme fraiche and caviar.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my eggs turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a fan of caviar, so I omitted it from the recipe. The eggs were still delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover caviar. I always have a jar in the fridge, and this is a delicious way to enjoy it.

I had a hard time finding eggshells that were large enough to hold the eggs. I ended up using ramekins instead.

These eggs were a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less creme fraiche and caviar.

So easy and delicious! I didn't have any creme fraiche, so I used sour cream instead and it worked out great. The caviar added a nice salty pop of flavor.

These eggs were a total hit at our brunch! The combination of creme fraiche and caviar was decadent and luxurious, and the eggshell cups were such a fun and unique touch. Definitely a recipe I'll be making again.
