Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 300°F and lightly grease an 8x8 or 9x9 baking pan.
  2. Whisk the eggs, milk and salt until fully smooth — an immersion blender gives the smoothest mix — then whisk in the heavy cream by hand.
  3. Note: For the silkiest texture, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove bubbles, then let it stand for about 10 minutes so any remaining bubbles rise.
  4. Pour the eggs into the prepared pan and tap the pan on the counter to release large air bubbles.
  5. Set the pan inside a larger 9x13 dish, pour hot water into the outer dish until it comes halfway up the sides of the egg pan, and tent the pan loosely with foil.
  6. Bake for about 25 minutes until the eggs are set and the center feels firm rather than jiggly.
  7. Lift the pan out of the water bath, cool the eggs briefly, then turn the slab out onto a cutting board and slice it into 9 even patties.
  8. Stack the patties with parchment squares between the layers and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
