These cured egg yolks, which I’m presenting in 3 different ways, are one of the most delicious experiments I’ve tried in a long time. They are surprisingly easy to do, and you only need a couple of ingredients, and a few days of curing time to create luxuriously jammy egg yolks. The hardest part is deciding which one you like the most.

Dude, I've been trying to love your content for years, because technically everything you do is excellent. But the voice and intonation is like nails on a chalkboard for me. Not trying to ask you to change, just letting you know that some people who might be totally on board with what you do are missing out because of stylistic dissonance. Keep it going, wish you well.

Let's hope for an Italian Mandorle morbide, next week! Desperately need to use up those twelve egg-whites, now, pretty please! Delicious idea for Sunday morning toasts, these yolks, thanks for the inspiration, Chef John, hope Easter was warm enough for your first Grilling Extravaganza!

As Dorothy Sayers once said, How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.
But truly, how fleeting is any whim or frivol of ducks when compared to Chef John's voice, cadence, style, videography, and love for a little shake of Ceyenne

It is VERY VERY SELDOM that I say a food is disgusting, BUT any form of soft or raw egg is heave worthy. I even cook my fried eggs broken and cooked hard. Sweet Jasus, I am feeling quite nauseous having just watched this abomination.

I don't think I would trust an egg 'cured' in the chili crisp oil. The salt and sugar are not soluble in the oil and would have just sank to the bottom with the soy sauce. So part of the egg was being cured but the top 80% was just sitting in oil for days.

I tried the honey cure a while back to use as fillings for onigiri and ended up with a firm and grainy texture: ( This has me convinced I must have let them sit too long, so I'm willing to try again. The chili crisp one might be a better filling actually

This is from personal taste. I had a steak tartare with this sort of egg yolk, and i find them disgusting. We have the luxury of salmonella free eggs in Finland and I'm happy for that, it can be warm but never cooked. (except for egg salads)

I get the concept but probably not have faith in my own cured eggs. That being said I could be fully committed to the ones cooked in butter if only I knew where to get that cute little blue Crueset he cooked the eggs in. Baby steps.

Went to a great restaurant on the outskirts of Melbourne, Aus, where they served a crazy good steak and microplanes cured egg yolk over it with some parmesan and fresh cracked pepper. Perhaps they froze after curing

Angel Food Cake from scratch requires no yolks and multiple egg whites. Strawberries are on their way, fresh and local. .. well, maybe next month. With freshly whipped cream, rather a special cake.

god i love cured eggs. My chef from work made us these soy cured egg yolk onigiri and it was /heaven/ nothing better than rice and eggs (iirc she cured it in just soy sauce, mirin, and green onions)
reply

I've tried this following a few other creators' instructions and felt a little disappointed, but these instructions seem a little more informative and complete. Thank you! Can't wait to try this!
reply

I was taught in Food Service to use the egg shell halves, to separate the yolks so you don't have to touch the whites. I always enjoy trying your recipes! Thanks for another great one!
reply

alright you inspired me.
soy sauce, ponzu, sesame oil, lemon, lime, green onion, crystallized ginger, sriracha, a drop of stone ground mustard. egg yolks. let's see in 2-3 days!

I usually make whole jammy eggs, but spreading the whites on toast is not the easiest to do. I'm going to try your garlic confit cured yolk tomorrow. I just know it will be fabulous!
reply

Now do a follow up video to show what can be done with the leftover cure. Because there's no way I'm wasting that much honey, butter, and chili crisp, even if it's slightly watery.
reply

When politics and conspiracy/reality videos get to be too much. I find you, Chef and I find my Zen. This was grounding, centering and lovely. Thank you Therapist Chef John!
reply

I think all recipes that use egg yolks should be accompanied by a thematically related recipe for the whites or vice versa. Angle food cake, and lemon curd, for example. lol.
reply

I used to be obsessed with food wishes when I was like 12 and now I’m 19 and I’m in college go a culinary degree haha it’s so interesting to be able to make these now
