Eggs

Bacon Vinaigrette

Method

Preparing the Eggs

  1. 1

    Sieve the Eggs

    Boil the eggs for about 9-10 minutes until hard-boiled. Transfer them to an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and pass them through a sieve into a bowl to create a smooth texture.

Making Herbed Breadcrumbs

  1. 2

    Prepare Breadcrumbs

    In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, chopped thyme, garlic powder, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix until the breadcrumbs are well coated.

  2. 3

    Toast Breadcrumbs

    Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside.

Preparing Bacon Vinaigrette

  1. 4

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove the bacon, leaving the fat in the skillet.

  2. 5

    Make Vinaigrette

    In the same skillet, add apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until combined. Chop the cooked bacon and add it to the vinaigrette.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Spoon the sieved egg onto a plate, top with herbed breadcrumbs, and drizzle with bacon vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
