Cloud Eggs are also known as Orsini Eggs.
It’s a type of egg dish where egg whites are whipped to a stiff peak, similar to meringue, BEFORE the yolk is added back into the center. The result is a light and fluffy cloud-like texture for the egg whites, with the yolk nestled in the middle.
Here’s a breakdown of what makes them special:
Light and Airy – Egg whites are separated from yolks and whipped until stiff creating a light and airy texture like a cloud.
Runny Yolk – Yolk is nestled in the center of the egg white cloud and remains runny for a visual experience.
Easy to Make – Despite their impressive appearance, cloud eggs are surprisingly simple to prepare. They require minimal ingredients and can be baked in the oven.
Versatile – Enjoy them plain or add a sprinkle of cheese, herbs, or spices for extra flavor.
