ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons chilled butter, divided
- cayenne
- kosher salt
- 1⁄4 cup heavy cream, whipped to soft peaks (optional garnish)
- 3 teaspoons caviar (optional garnish)
directions
- Combine eggs and 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a small room-temperature saucepan and season lightly with cayenne and salt.
- Place over medium-low heat and cook, whisking gently and constantly while scraping bottom and sides of pan, until eggs are just thickened, creamy, and small curds begin to form, 3–4 minutes total. (If mixture begins to stick to pan while cooking, remove from heat; whisk gently for 30 seconds, then continue cooking over heat.)
- Remove from heat. Add 1/2 tablespoons butter; whisk until melted.
- Season with salt; divide among small bowls. This is so elegant, make the presentation tall if you have the bowl or glass for it.
- Serve in egg shells and top with whipped cream and caviar, if desired.

As I am in South Florida, I have many edible fruits and perennial veggies in my yard. So, I like to cook with them.
