MacKenzie Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 I thought it was time for an extra treat this morning. It all started 5 days ago when I put an egg yolk into a bowl with a mix of salt and sugar, covered it and put it in the fridge for 4 days. Next step was to take it out of the salt/sugar mixture, bush it off and do a final little wash with water to get rid of the rest of the salt/sugar mixture. Finally dry in the dehydrator for 2 hours at 150F. After the 4 days- All dried and shaved with the micro plane. I decided to try it on an Sous Vide egg and serve with some previously KK smoked bacon, KK smoked gouda cheese, sour dough bread and add a little colour. The interior of the SV egg with shaved egg yolk. Time for a nice cuppa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Wow, MacKenzie! Beautiful plate of pasta. So what exactly does a cured yolk taste like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 It has a mild flavour, a little salty and very creamy. That's the best I can say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
