Egg in a hole
Well good morning! I am a woman of my word, and I mentioned that I’d be doing some more breakfast posts like this, intimate setting. Made my way out of a whiskey haze at 5 am this morning but my priorities were crystal. Use up the rest of that truffle I bought, shoot, post, and get on the studio hustle to ship orders. Ate my breakfast too, which you will see now.
My inspiration for this post is simple, based on the shape of this egg holder. The recipe derivative of the classic egg in a hole. No need to invent a recipe from scratch, just modern updates on classics. History should repeat itself no?
For the truffle cream. Flour, butter, salt, fresh truffles, and fresh heavy cream.
For the pesto.
Toast the bread, place the truffle cream inside, and top it with a soft boiled egg. I added some prosciutto and pesto as well.
Thanks for reading, more soon.
so when is your pop up restaurant tour?
I made an egg in the hole yesterday, but it didn’t have all that truffle! Gorgeous.
love the idea and btw love your outfit

Amazing!
Savoring this post!
I was thinking about buying that knife set but wasn’t sure if the quality would be any better than what I have now. Would you recommend those knives?
yum! that looks super good. I need to get some truffle. i ate some for the holidays, and i have a good spot in Paris to get them. (of course i grew up not far from Perigord, the French truffle country)
Mind blown. For some reason this reminds me of chess–the egg kind of looks like a bishop and the square-shapes recall the chessboard.
how do you stumble out of your whiskey haze @ 5am ?? been trying to DIY morning person for like 6 months no dice.
I’ve been making egg in a hole since I was 8. But it was never as glorious as that! I’m almost drooling here!
Where is that gray sweater from?
OMG that is awesome! NEVER disappointed!
Better than eggs benedict, I bet!
The last one was totally food pornish…
you have the most amazing breakfast ever!! i would wake up at 5am to eat this anytime!!
this dish is gorgeous!
That looks delicious and I don’t even eat animal foods
you are amazing!
This is amazing! The presentation of it is so beautiful. I can’t even look at food at 5am, especially hungover, let alone put together such a masterpiece. You are incredible!
In the years I’ve been reading you there were not many moments when I’ve gone omfg
There were a lit of holy crap this kid is amazing but the omfg is reserved…. This post mostly bec of the always amazing pristine quality of everything and damn do I love runny eggs
Love your work!
Looks gorgeous, and I’m officially hungry.
love the hermes cdc
How on earth did you get the pesto into a square?
so im like the worst cook in the world… but would it be possibly to crack the egg into the bread raw and then bake it or something…. then the egg could be extra runny and incorporated into the bread cube. presentation is delightful as always
this looks incredible! really love the whole plate presentation…can’t wait to try it.
take care, aimee

a humble classic such as egg-in-a-hole never looked so good!
i love you (silly grin)
Just when I think I’ve seen everything food-wise you again surprise me with the most original presentation. I really appreciate your effort in making your food not only taste good but look good as well.
I am so glad there is someone out there who inspires me to make my meals look better.
Delicious recipe aside, where did you get/what is the brand of the grey sweater you’re wearing in these photos?
This is amazing! Such an inspiration
Which lens do you use for your closeups? I really love those photos!! Unusual but great for food photography!
Inspired by the simplicity of your outfit teamed with your hardcore cuff. I probably seem like I’m a creep with all these comments in one go but I’ve been appreciating your blog for a while now and thought it was about time that I spoke up!
Any chance you can post the recipe for the truffle cream? Would love to try this dish. Thanks!
where did you get the ruler?

I feel so inspired after seeing your blog.. I wish I could have found it earlier
keep up the work!!
