The egg yolks are just waiting to be pierced, seeping molten gold. A generous drizzle of the creamy miso hollandaise sauce engulfs the eggs, with chive specks and hints of orange roe.

Preparation

  1. Step 1 - 🍚🥣💧
    Stir together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons of finely chopped chives, and 2 chopped scallions. Pour in 1/2 cup of boiled water and mix until a rough dough forms.
  2. Step 2 - 🍞⏰🍳
    Knead the dough until smooth on a floured surface. Let it rest for 30 minutes. Divide the dough into two equal parts and roll into flat pancakes. In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil and fry each pancake until golden. Set aside when done.
  3. Step 3 - 🥚🧈🥄
    In a heatproof bowl, whisk together 4 egg yolks, 2 tablespoons of miso paste, and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. While whisking, add 1/2 cup of melted butter gradually. Keep going until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Step 4 - 🍳🥞🥢
    Poach the 4 eggs in simmering water then place on top of the pancakes. Smother each egg with the miso hollandaise. Garnish with extra chives and a sprinkle of 2 tablespoons of trout roe. Serve immediately.
