Eggs, Macaroni, and Rice

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Break the eggs gently, allowing the whites to fall into a basin while retaining the yolks in the shell.

  2. If any white remains, transfer the yolk between the shell halves until all the white has fallen.

  3. Add a small pinch of coarse sea salt to the egg whites.

  4. Beat the egg whites slowly at first, then increase speed until they form a firm froth.

  5. To test, place a quarter and a dime on top; if they sink, continue beating.
