Recipe

Step 1: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the syrup until it reaches 238°F.

Step 2: Crack the eggs into the boiling syrup and cook over medium heat about 30 seconds without touching the eggs to allow the syrup to reheat.

Step 3: Continue cooking for about 90 seconds, stirring the eggs 4 or 5 times with a spoon to break them up a little, until they have set.

Step 4: Serve warm at 104°F or let cool and refrigerate for up to two weeks.
