Ingredients for 4 servings

toasted hazelnut bread and bacon
  • First of all for cooking the eggs (keep this in a corner of your pc)
  • very fresh eggs, salted water and a few drops of vinegar and especially with the tip of a knife make a tiny hole on the rounded part of the eggs, so when they are cooked you will blow into this small hole which will allow some air to pass between the membrane and will make your task easier when you shell them.
  • soft-boiled egg with sorrel chiffonade for 4 people:
  • 4 large farm eggs (to keep it purely regional, those of exception from Marans)
  • 400 g sorrel peeled, washed 3 times and finely sliced (chiffonade)
  • 30 cl liquid cream (30%)
  • 4 slices of artisanal sandwich bread with crust removed
  • 4 slices of bacon just pan-fried then placed on absorbent paper
  • Butter, oil and hazelnut oil
  • salt, freshly ground pepper, nutmeg zest
