COPYCAT STARBUCKS BACON & GRUYERE SOUS VIDE EGG BITES

Steps:

• Make filling:.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, cottage cheese, gruyere, Monterey jack, bacon, hot sauce and salt.
• Form Eggs:.
• Using a very small bowl (a custard cup, or a 5 oz ramekin will work well), press a 10- inch square of plastic wrap into the bowl, so the wrap is fully adhered to the sides of the bowl. There should be about 2 inches of plastic wrap left hanging over the edges of the bowl. Spray the plastic wrap in the bowl as well as the overhang, liberally with nonstick spray. Spoon the egg filling into the bowl, leaving 1/8'' at the top. Form an air-tight bundle around the eggs; lift the sides of the plastic wrap on all sides just enough to twist the plastic wrap so that it encloses the egg. There should be no air in the bundle. Tie tightly with kitchen string, or a length of plastic wrap. Repeat with remaining filling, remembering to spray the plastic wrap each time.
• Cook Eggs:.
• In a large pot, bring 6 inches of water to a simmer (185 - 200°F.) There should be tiny bubbles rising to the surface; carefully drop all the egg parcels into the simmering water, and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, the centers should be completely set. Remove the egg parcels from the water with a slotted spoon and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels. Let sit for a minute until cool enough to handle. Using sharp scissors, cut the parcels directly under the kitchen twine; peel away the plastic wrap, the egg bites are ready to serve.

BASIC SOUS VIDE EGG BITES RECIPE (+VIDEO)

Steps:

• Spray each mason jar generously with non-stick oil spray.
• Add chopped green onions and cheese to each mason jar (you can customize with your favorite ingredients), filling about 1/3 full.
• In a large measuring cup, whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper.
• Pour the egg mixture to the jar, leaving about 1/2 inch from the top. (If you don't pour enough mixture to the jar, the mason jars may float in the water bath.)
• Close the lid "fingertip tight". (You can easily open with 2 fingers).
• Fill the container or pot with water and set the temperature of the sous vide circulator to 172°F (73°C). (Place a trivet mat beneath the pot to help protect your countertop!)
• Place the mason jars in the water before the water gets hot. Set the timer for 1 hour.
• When the timer goes off, remove the jars from the water, and let cool for about 10 minutes.
• Run a knife around the edges of each jar to loosen. Remove them from the jars and serve warm immediately (or freeze for meal prep).
