Hen had a day off, and so decided to try to make something different for tea, she decided on this.
Who's a lucky boy then?

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

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

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.
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.

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.*

*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!
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.

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
