This looks delicious and very creative @progressivechef! And glad to see that you're participating in the steemit sandwich competition :)
Oh i'm so happy to read from you @natashahall! Thanks so much for the beautiful comments on my sandwich!
It was indeed an explosion of flavour!
Cheers!
Nicely done Brotha!
I love a good open face sandwich!
The whole cured egg yolk thing was a nice touch. Thanks for the explanation as i was wondering how you actually do that... How does it change the yolk.. in flavour or consistency?
Beautiful Colours going on there too. A True artisan at work.
Nice touch with the burnt paper lol. Next week be sure to snap at least one picture with the sign verifying the entry. (we got to see that it's been made specifically for that week in the future)
Thanks so much for appreciating this new creation bro!
Well the taste of cured eggs are just unique! The texture varies depending how many hours or days you are curing them! I did it for only a couple of hours just for it to set as i wanted it to be still runny!
Do try it someday man, nice experience!
I'll make sure not to forget man, i just forgot this week and when i remembered...the sandwich was already in my belly!
hahaha!

Wow, what a beautiful sandwich!! So colorful and vibrant and fresh, and the flavor combos sound fantastic!
I've never heard of a cured egg yolk. How do you do that??
Thanks so much @saramiller for such a wonderful comment! Wow!
You should do it, it's amazingly good! My way of doing it, is use 75% coarse salt and 25% sugar , mixed together then add any herbs you prefer.
I use mostly lavender, thyme, rosemary.
Put some of this mixture in a bowl to make like a bed!
Then separate yolks from whites, and transfer yolks on this bed.
Carefully pour remaining mixture evenly over the yolks.
Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until yolks are firm and dry throughout.
It can take 5 days to be firm and you can cure up to 30 days!
After the desired time, take out the yolk and brush the excess of salt mixture and rinse in clear water!
After that you can dry it further more in the oven and used on pasta by grating it over!
Lots of recipe you can do with it!
Mmmmm, that sounds so delicious!!! We will definitely give this a try with our fresh chicken eggs at the Garden of Eden!! Thanks for sharing, @progressivechef!
Wonderful! I do think i'll have to make a post on it as i got quite a lot of queries from my steemit friends about how to do it!
With fresh eggs they will be even more delicious!
This looks so good my friend.
Thanks so much for liking it my friend! So happy to hear from you back!
