OEUFS BROUILLES A LA MICHEL GUERARD (FRENCH SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CAVIAR)

Steps:

• With a serrated knife, cut each egg shell about 1/2-inch from the pointed end. Empty the raw eggs into a bowl and reserve. Wash the egg shells (tops and bottoms) in warm water, then turn them upside down on a towel to dry completely.
• Over very low heat melt the butter in a saucepan just large enough to hold the eggs. Beat the eggs with a whisk, pour through a sieve into the warm butter, and return to the very low heat. Beat constantly with the whisk, gradually increasing the heat, until the eggs are thick and creamy, not solid.
• Remove the eggs immediately from the heat and continue whisking while adding the cream, shallots, chives, salt and pepper.
• Place the dried eggshells in egg cups. Using a teaspoon, carefully fill each shell 3/4 full with the creamed eggs, then finish filling each shell with 1 tablespoon of caviar. The caviar should be slightly domed on top. Place the little top of each shell on the caviar. Serve with toast.

Steps:

• Gently whip the eggs with a fork.
• Heat a saucepan over medium heat, then add the Cognac and butter (they should sizzle/simmer immediately).

Add 1 tablespoon of the sour cream and stir to incorporate, letting the eggs sputter and pop a few times on the heat. Barely fold in the remaining sour cream (some streaks should still be visible).
• Top the buttered toast with plenty of soft scrambled eggs and a heaping spoon of the caviar. Or pour eggs in a bowl and top the whole thing with the caviar, use the toast as a spoon, and knock yourself out.

BEARNAISE DEVILED EGGS WITH CAVIAR AND FRIED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• For the fried shallots: Fill a deep, heavy skillet with 1 inch of oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Slice the shallots thinly, and separate into rings. Dust with rice flour, and then drop into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove to a paper towel to drain. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the bearnaise sauce: In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine half of the tarragon with the shallots, vinegar and wine. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Blend the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the bearnaise reduction together in a blender. With the blender running, add one-third of the melted butter in a slow, steady stream. Once the butter emulsifies, turn the blender speed up to high and add the remaining butter. Add the remaining half of the tarragon, season with salt and pepper, and give the sauce one more buzz. Set aside in a warm spot to hold.
• For the deviled eggs: To make perfect hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, immediately turn off the heat and let sit for exactly 14 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water, let cool, and then peel.
• Slice the eggs in half, and then slice a sliver off the bottom so they will stand erect on the plate. Remove the yolks to a food processor.
• Season a bowl of cold water very generously with salt, and stir until dissolved. Rinse the egg whites in the salt water to remove any remaining yolk--this way, you season the eggs at the same time.
• To the yolks in the food processor, add 1/4 cup of the bearnaise sauce and the creme fraiche, mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice. Process until completely smooth--you may have to add a few drops of water to loosen. Season with salt.
• Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large circle tip, and pipe the filling into the egg whites. Top with caviar, fried shallots and tarragon tips.

BREAKFAST CREPES WITH SAVORY EGGS, SMOKED SALMON AND CAVIAR

Steps:

• Crepes -- I won't go through the whole recipe here, but you can use your favorite recipe or buy them pre-made. If they are frozen just, thaw in the fridge and then I reheat by simply wrapping them in a damp paper towel in the microwave for just a few seconds. Or you can wrap in foil and reheat in the oven on 325 for just 5 minutes or so. You just want them warm and plyable, not steaming hot.
• Sauce -- In a small pot, add the butter, flour and milk and whisk well until combined. Bring to medium heat and continue stirring until well combined. DON'T boil as you do not want to scald/burn the milk. Bring to a light boil stirring often. The sauce will thicken. Reduce to low and add the lemon, dill, salt and pepper. Just keep on low while you cook the eggs.
• Eggs -- In a medium non-stick sauce pan, add the butter and bring to medium heat. Add in the shallots and cook 1-2 minutes just to soften them up a bit. Then, in a medium size bowl, whisk the eggs very well and add in a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the eggs to the sauce pan with the onions, stir, and let them cook on medium low heat 3-4 minutes until slightly set and then stir. Add in the Boursin or herb cheese and stir to combine. It will take another 3-4 minutes for the cheese to melt and the eggs to finish cooking. Stir often. DON'T overcook the eggs - you want a soft scramble, as they will continue to cook once removed from the heat.
• Salmon -- Buying it in a package it should already be thin sliced and ready to use.
• Crepes -- Add 1/4 of the eggs to each warm crepe, top with smoked salmon and roll. Place 1-2 crepes per plate and top with the warm lemon dill sauce, a sprig of dill, a dollop or spoon of sour cream, and a little caviar. ENJOY!

SCRAMBLED EGGS EN COQUE WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Holding 1 egg narrow end up, remove top half inch of shell with egg topper or knife and discard. Pour egg into a bowl and reserve shell. Repeat with remaining eggs.
• Rinse eggshells gently in water, then submerge in a 2-quart saucepan of water and bring to a boil, covered. Remove from heat, leaving shells in water to keep warm.
• While shells come to a boil, add cream to eggs and whisk until well combined.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a double boiler or in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, then cook egg mixture, gently whisking constantly, until the consistency of pudding (thick enough to mound), 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in salt, pepper, and remaining tablespoon butter. Transfer to a 2-cup glass measure and keep warm, covered.
• Toast bread and cut into long 1/2-inch-thick sticks.
• While bread toasts, drain eggshells upside down on paper towels.
• Put shells in eggcups, then pour egg mixture into shells, guiding flow with a small spoon. (Alternatively, put shells in an empty egg carton to stabilize while filling, then wipe shells clean before transferring to eggcups.) Spoon some caviar on top of each and serve with toast fingers.

CAVIAR STUFFED EGGS

Steps:

• Gently place the eggs into a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Add the vinegar and place over high heat. Bring to a boil and set a timer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat after 5 minutes and let sit an additional 2 minutes. Drain the eggs and run under cold water. Immediately peel the eggs* and slice in half the long way. Remove the yolks to a mixing bowl and set the whites to the side. Using a fork, mash the yolks well. Add the mayonnaise, anchovy paste, mustard and white pepper and mix well. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a #6 round tip (1/2-inch diameter). Alternatively, use a sealable plastic bag with the tip cut off.
• Set the egg whites out in a row. Into half, spoon 1/4 teaspoon of the black caviar. Into the other half spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the red caviar. Pipe the filling on top of the caviar so that each resembles a full yolk. Garnish the black caviar stuffed eggs with a small amount of the red caviar and vice versa. Garnish each with a small sprig of dill and serve on a bed of mixed greens.

Transfer the filling to a pastry bag fitted with a large decorative tip and pipe it into the egg whites, mounding it. The stuffed eggs may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Just before serving, top the eggs with the caviar.
