If you are looking for a unique hors d’oeuvre to include in your next dinner party, consider trying these egg yolk skewers that include ham and cheese. They include cooked egg yolks, slices of ham, and parmesan cheese for a mixture of salty and smoky flavors.
Making these egg skewers is a little unique; you begin by placing a skewer in a hot pan and placing two egg yolks on top. The egg yolks then cook onto the skewer. After that, you sprinkle parmesan cheese into a hot pan so that it bubbles and forms a crust before placing a slice of ham and an egg skewer on top, which gets folded with the cheese to make a fully assembled skewer.
What are Egg Skewers?
These egg skewers are skewers that include egg yolks, ham, and parmesan cheese, which are assembled into neat packages. You simply cook egg yolks onto skewers before enrobing them in melted parmesan cheese and sliced ham.
Pro Tips
- For easy preparation, you can place the egg yolks in a small bowl so that it is easy to pour them onto the skewers without them breaking.
- Finely grate the parmesan to ensure it is fine enough to melt easily when it hits the hot pan.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the parmesan from sticking to it.
- If your skewers are too large for your skillet, you can cut the ends off to shorten them.
- Instead of sliced ham, you could also use bacon.
