Number of servings: 4

The story behind the recipe
Nests of eggs is a recipe that combines tradition with innovation. Over time, eggs have been a staple ingredient in many cultures, providing people with a quick source of protein and energy. This reinvented recipe adds a modern twist, featuring crispy and soft textures that perfectly complement each other.

Preparation steps:
1. Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius and prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper. This step is essential to prevent the nests from sticking to the tray and for easier cleaning.

2. In a large bowl, start by beating the egg whites with an electric mixer until they become frothy and reach a firm consistency. This step is crucial, as well-beaten egg whites will give the nests an airy and fluffy texture.

3. Add the diced bacon, finely chopped green onions, grated parmesan, paprika, salt, and pepper. Gently mix with a spatula, taking care not to lose the air in the egg whites. This combination brings a savory flavor and irresistible aroma.

4. Using a spoon or ladle, spoon the egg white mixture onto the baking tray, forming nests with a small space in the middle. These nests are the perfect place to add the yolks later.

5. Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 3 minutes. This first baking step helps set the base of the nests, making them slightly crispy on the outside.

6. After 3 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and carefully add a yolk in the middle of each nest. This step is essential to achieve a wonderful contrast between the crispy texture of the egg whites and the creaminess of the yolk.

7. Season with a little salt and pepper, then return the tray to the oven. Bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the yolks are cooked to your liking – softer or firmer.

8. Once the nests are golden brown and the yolks are cooked, remove the tray from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
