36 egg yolks
1 kg of sugar
1/2 liter of water
36 egg yolks
1 kg of sugar
1/2 liter of water
Place the sugar and water in a large saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat
Reduce the heat and let simmer for 10 minutes
While this is happening, strain the egg yolks through a fine-mesh sieve. Reserve
Prepare a large strainer over a bowl
When the cooking time of the syrup reaches 10 minutes, it should be at thread stage
Pour the egg yolks slowly into the utensil suitable for making egg floss, or a small jar with fine spouts that function as thin threads
Hold the utensil with one hand and, with circular motions, let the egg yolks flow over the syrup
Do not allow many threads to accumulate in the syrup
Remove the threads with a skimmer carefully so they don't break, place them in the strainer to drain excess syrup and rinse with cold water
Repeat the operation
Transfer to a compote dish and moisten with a little syrup.
