Chef John's Cloud Eggs
You've probably seen these things blowing up on social media recently, and by recently, I mean like 2 years ago. These are very easy to make, super cool to look at, and very enjoyable to eat. This could also be a pretty cool menu item for a Mother's Day brunch. Serve on generously buttered toast with a pinch of cayenne and a sprinkle of coarse sea salt.
