Game

My wife and I went last night. If you like Hammerheads in any capacity you will probably love Game. This was the Scotch egg appetizer but what you can't see is the bed of roasted pork belly and smoked truffle mayo the eggs sit on. I had an ostrich burger on pumpernickel (see below) with herbed goat cheese and caramelized onions. I wish I had room for the fois gras funnel cake. Nice beer list too.



(Full disclosure: My bakery is baking bread for them but still... it's an exciting addition to the awesome burger mayhem currently going around and I wanted to share this cool picture.) Cheers!

I wanna know how they make Scotch Eggs with the yolk still runny! My recipe calls for the egg to be hardboiled first.

Thanks! They had me at Scotch Egg.

Same here. Must have been a pain to peel them. They rocked though!

That looks like the serious goodness...

I think the only way you could do it would be to cook the eggs SV, I seen hard-boiled eggs done that way and still leave the yolks runny. The real trick would be peeling them, breading them, and deep frying them without harming them!

First off congratulations are in order to Adam and Chase on their newest venture. I expect nothing but great things.

As for the scotch egg, which looks awesome, I'm going to have to try it for myself before I can be sure of how they've done it, but there are multiple ways of achieving a scotch egg with a beautifully runny center. Rye has had one on their menu recently and it's the best I've ever had.

You could sous vide the eggs to your desired done-ness, but this is going to create an egg that's potentially as soft on the outside as it is on the inside (sous vide eggs (not hardboiled) are usually really easy to peel). I think potentially you want to cook them in boiling water for 4-5 minutes to solidify the albumen without really cooking the yolk, ice bath, and then peel, coat. Fry to order.

You could also potentially (I haven't tried this out, but hypothetically it could work) crack an egg into a sandwich bag (or any small bag really) and suspend it in the freezer overnight. Peel the bag off the next day and coat the frozen egg. Keep this whole bit frozen and fry to order. At which point you're really just playing with fryer time/temp to cook the outside while leaving the yolk runny.

Man, Adam and Chase, and that whole crew are just outstanding!

I can't wait to get over there, those scotch eggs look re-dork-u-lous!!!!

You can boil eggs with out having to peel them afterwards.

I've managed to live my whole life in blissful ignorance that I even NEEDED anything like that!

I searched for them on Google and on Facebook with no luck. With a name like that, you get many crazy hits. How about a link, info or menu?
