What we had for tea last night
Hen had a day off, and so decided to try to make something different for tea, she decided on this.

Oh, and they turned out perfect, with runny yolks!

Re: What we had for tea last night
They look delicious!!
Today I'll mostly be having spam, griddled and tossed in a nice salad.
I'm at the caravan until tomorrow and really don't fancy making a trip to the supermarket and leaving the dogs in the caravan in this heat.

Wow, looks fabulous, but a lot of work for a couple of eggs. (Oh those grapes are sour! Will have to try that recipe, thanks!)
GAH!

Re: What we had for tea last night
They don't look like any kind of tea I ever had.

Yum, except, I'm not a huge fan of runny egg yolks.

Re: What we had for tea last night
They don't look runny in the final product. Maybe it gets cooked again after its wrapped in that crepe-thing.
And if you don't like runny yolks how can you have quail egg on Ikura sushi? Hmmm?
can't work.
Besides I think its cooking the yolk through that give you those satanic brimstone farts afterwards. Have you ever noticed that?* Ask your swede-friend if he's noticed it.

The sulfur comes from the disulfide bonds which link different strands of protein together. like zo R-S-S-R. Where "R" means "any goddamn thing" in chemistry. its like a variable. Exactly like a variable. Except it refers to elements or molecules instead of numbers.

Re: What we had for tea last night
The yolks were BEAUTIFULLY runny, warm, moist, and full of flavour, complimented the pasta shell wonderfully. The asparagus and roast pumpkin base contrasted and provided more "bite".
The left over whites were made into pavlova for dessert.
So good we had them again last night.
Hen roped me in when making the pasta this time, great fun. We knocked out a batch of Fettuccine too.

Re: What we had for tea last night

By removing the Albumen they took the Sulphur out of the picture (from what I have read)...

Re: What we had for tea last night
Ahh it's not how it LOOKS that's the problem here. That's an entirely different sense. I've known people who, after eating hard-cooked eggs, could strip the chrome off a bumper with their effluence.*Rick wrote:By removing the Albumen they took the Sulphur out of the picture (from what I have read)...

*People who quit smoking can do the same thing. I've a co-worker who, we're all hoping, will either give up trying or succeed REAL soon. Wheweeee! even in a well-ventilated cleanroom he's a menace to society!

The defining characteristic of the effluent is free time 
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
Re: What we had for tea last night
Soup day at work today, and it's my turn. Every Weds during the winter, all the staff take it in turns to bring in a soup and bread for lunch. (Some actually buy the soup, most buy in the bread!) Today I am making pear and parsnip soup, with walnut bread. Just got my yeast rising. I'm lucky as my shift doesn't start until 12.30 pm, so I can cook everything from fresh in the morning.

Hot water soup never fails to elicit a response.

I just caused a major foodgasm for the girls in the office.

I make a great cream of roasted parsnip soup. But not now, that's winter food!
A walnut bread with yeast? Sounds yummy -- I'd ask for the recipe but all those metric measurements make me nuts
