SOFT-BOILED EGGS WITH WATERCRESS AND WALNUT-RICOTTA CROSTINI
You don't need your own hen to make this egg-based dish from the food writer Ian Knauer, whose family has always kept chickens. In his book, "The Farm," he shared recipes from a year of cooking with largely farm-grown ingredients. Among them was this dish, which is as good as a simple dinner as it is for breakfast or lunch.

Steps:
- In a large heavy skillet, melt two tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the bread slices and toast, turning occasionally, until both sides are well browned, 3 to 4 minutes. (Reduce heat as needed to prevent scorching.)
- Remove the bread and add the remaining tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the walnuts and toast them, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer walnuts to a food processor and let cool. Add ricotta, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and .5 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pulse just until well combined.
- Place the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with lukewarm water. (Hot water on cold eggs will crack the shells.) Over high heat, bring the water just to a boil. Immediately turn off the heat, cover the pan and let stand for 2 minutes. Transfer the pot to the sink and run cold water over the eggs for about 30 seconds. Peel the eggs under cold running water
- In a bowl, toss watercress with the remaining tablespoon lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Spread walnut ricotta evenly over the toasts, then top with watercress. Place 1 egg on each toast and grind pepper on top. Using a small, sharp knife, gently cut each egg open to break the yolk, letting it run down to dress the watercress. Drizzle with oil, if using, and serve.

Steps:
- With oven rack in lowest position, heat oven to 200. Bring 10 cups water to boil in heavy, covered one-gallon Dutch oven. Remove lid, and with slotted spoon lower eggs quickly into water two at a time. Turn off heat, and replace lid. Set timer for 10 minutes. For a firmer egg, leave eggs in water 2 minutes more.
- Fill a gallon bowl with very cold water, and set aside. Place 4 small bowls or wine glasses in oven to warm. Two minutes before eggs are done, toast bread, and butter it. Tear toast into small pieces, and place in warm bowl. If using wine glasses, serve toast on side.
- When eggs are done, transfer them quickly with slotted spoon to bowl with cold water. After 5 seconds, remove eggs to a few thicknesses of paper towel.
- With a small sharp knife, strike quickly through shell lengthwise. Drizzle yolk from shell onto toast in bowl or into cocktail glass. Scoop out white with spoon. Repeat with remaining eggs, using two for each serving. Sprinkle eggs with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:
- Fill a medium sized saucepan with water and bring to a rolling boil.
- Make sure your eggs aren't fridge cold. By having the eggs at room temperature, it will be less of a shock for the egg reaching the hot water and therefore less likely to crack. You can also use an egg pricker to make a very small hole in each egg before boiling, which will also reduce the chances of it cracking in the heat. Slowly lower the eggs into the water using a spoon.
- Set your timer for 4-5 mins for runny/dippy eggs to serve with soldiers, or 6-7 mins for soft-boiled eggs for a salad. If serving in a salad, plunge the eggs into a bowl of cold water as soon as the timer goes off - this will stop them cooking and cool the shells quickly for peeling.
