Caramelized eggs cooked in heavy cream!
Caramelized Eggs Cooked in Heavy Cream
Can you fry with cream? Absolutely, you can! Try these fried eggs in heavy cream!
These cream fried eggs are cooked in a nontraditional way, involving a combination of steaming and frying. Cooking eggs in heavy cream works because the liquid quickly boils off, leaving you with butter fat to fry the egg in and caramelized butter solids that add a new flavor dimension to the eggs. It's a great way to use left over heavy cream!

Pisco Sour Recipe.
Pisco Sour Recipe — A Classic Peruvian Cocktail
Peru and Chile fiercely contest the origin of this drink, but I was first introduced to it during my visit to Peru in 2014. Pisco, a brandy produced from distilled fermented grapes in the winemaking regions of Chile and Peru, is at the base of this drink. This recipe uses an easy-to-remember 2-1-1 ratio that ensures a balance between all the ingredients.
