Egg-in-the-Hole

Breakfast

Ingredients

1 slice Whole wheat sandwich bread

1 Tbsp Unsalted Butter

1 Egg (medium or large)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Using a cookie cutter, cut a hole in the center of the bread slice. Place butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-medium high heat. Once butter begins to foam add bread slice and sauté (not moving the bread) for 20 seconds. Gently press down the sides of bread so that it is sitting flat on the pan. If the bread is moving up and down due to the sizzling butter, the heat is too high.

Crack an egg into the center of the bread slice. Cook approximately one minute. Very carefully flip the bread using a spatula large enough to cover the entire piece of bread. Cook on other side for approximately one to two minutes to desired doneness (over easy is best).

Transfer to a plate and season with salt and pepper.

RSJ’s Greek Tzatziki

This is the style of tzatziki I fell in love with again in Greece - thick, cool, garlicky, bright and built around full-fat Greek yogurt and well-drained cucumber. The key is keeping excess water out of the sauce and giving it enough time to rest so the garlic, olive oil, herbs and acid come together. Once you eat the real thing in Greece, most American tzatziki tastes like yogurt that once heard a rumor about a cucumber.

Amalfi Lemon Cake

There's a particular kind of sunshine that only shows up in citrus form, and this Amalfi Lemon Cake has it in spades. Bright, moist, and unapologetically lemony, it walks the line between a proper dessert and something you'd be just as happy eating with your coffee on a Tuesday morning. The glaze soaks into the crumb while the cake's still warm, so every bite carries that little pucker of acidity balanced against real sweetness. It's simple enough for a weeknight and pretty enough for company.
