Techniques
  • eggs
  • salt
  • white vinegar
  • water
  • ice water
Salt hot water generously and add a good splash of white vinegar. When it boils, lower in the eggs in their shells, reduce the heat and cook 6 minutes; transfer immediately to ice water.
Crack each egg very gently and return to the water so it gets between shell and white; peel slowly and carefully, keeping the egg intact.
  • spinach
  • parsley leaves
Blanch the spinach and parsley leaves in heavily salted water about a minute and transfer immediately to ice water to keep them green.
Pass the green puree through a fine sieve.
  • chicken stock
Warm the chicken stock; add the gelatine and the green puree, blend, and pass through a sieve again.
Pan sear croutons quickly in clarified butter for the garnish.
  • gelatine
  • clarified butter
Right before serving, glaze each egg with the lukewarm green coulis.
  • wild salmon caviar
On the plate, make a round of wild salmon caviar with a large cookie cutter; set the egg on a crouton and serve.
