🙋 Recommended for

  • Those who want to present unique and elegant finger food for guests or home parties.
  • Those who want to try the low-temperature oil confit cooking technique at home.

Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • 3-4 egg yolks
  • Olive oil, enough to cover (about 2 cups)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • A pinch of whole peppercorns
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3 slices baguette
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 scallion
  • Flying fish roe or caviar, to taste

Recipe 🍳

  1. Carefully separate egg yolks into an oven-safe dish, ensuring they do not break, and remove the chalazae.
  2. Place garlic, bay leaf, and whole peppercorns between the yolks, then generously pour olive oil to completely submerge the yolks.
  3. Cook in an oven or air fryer preheated to 90-100°C (194-212°F) for 18-20 minutes to create the egg yolk confit.
  4. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a pan and toast baguette slices until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  5. In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of sour cream with finely chopped scallions to prepare the sauce.
  6. Spread the scallion sour cream sauce onto the crispy baguette slices, then gently spread the prepared egg yolk confit on top.
  7. Garnish with caviar or flying fish roe as desired, and finish with a light sprinkle of black pepper.
  1. Place separated yolks in a dish with garlic, spices, and olive oil.
  2. Gently cook the yolks in the oven at a low temperature until they reach a soft, jam-like consistency.
  3. Toast baguette slices until crispy, and mix chopped scallions into sour cream for the sauce.
  4. Top the baguette with sour cream sauce, then egg yolk confit, and finally roe.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Be extremely careful when removing the chalazae to avoid breaking the egg yolks.
  • If the oven temperature exceeds 100°C (212°F), the yolks will become hard like fully cooked eggs. Maintaining a low temperature between 90-100°C (194-212°F) is key.
  • To prevent toasted baguette from becoming soggy, always cool it on a wire rack or colander immediately after toasting.
