Equipment

  • 1 Pot or Dutch oven
  • 4 Ramekins

Ingredients

  • 4 ea. Pasture raised eggs
  • 200 g Heavy cream reduced by half
  • 25 g Butter
  • 3 g Fresh herbs

Instructions

Mise-En-Place

  • Butter each ramekin generously. Season with a pinch of salt. Add the reduced cream and the egg.

Baked Eggs

  • To start, fill a Dutch oven with one inch/2.5cm of boiling water. Carefully arrange amekins inside, ensuring they are stable and secure. Add reduced cream and eggs. Place the lid on top and let the eggs cook for about 6 minutes on low heat. Alternatively, you can opt to cook them in a fan oven at 325ºF/160ºC. Once your eggs are perfectly poached, it's time to season them to perfection. A sprinkle of fleur de sel and freshly ground black pepper will enhance the natural flavors of the eggs. For an extra burst of freshness, consider adding minced herbs such as chives, chervil, parsley, basil, thyme, or oregano. Enjoy!
