Ingredients
Poached Egg Cups with Chive Cream and Caviar
- For garnish
- 60 grams black Caviar
- For tart shells
- 2 egg whites
- 80 grams softened butter
- 100 grams Pastry flour
- 1 pinch salt
- For the chive cream
- 100 grams Sour cream
- 60 grams Quark
- 1 splash lemon juice
- 3 Tbsps scallions
- salt
- white peppers
Preheat the oven to 150°C (approximately 300°F).
For the tart shells: Beat the egg whites in a double boiler until slightly warmed. Add the butter and continue beating until light and fluffy. Stir in the flour and salt and mix until smooth. Spoon the mixture into 4 flattened circles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately place each onto an upside down bowl or muffin cup to form a shell. Let cool.
For the chive cream: Whisk together the sour cream, quark, lemon juice and chopped chives until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
To poach the eggs: Crack each egg into a small bowl or cup. Add the vinegar to 1 liter (approximately 4 cups) of simmering water. Carefully slide each egg into the water and cook for about 4 minutes. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Place the poached eggs into the tart shells, layer the chive cream on top, garnish with caviar and serve.
