[EAT] Breakfast with Me

Have you seen?  I guest blogged for Designlovefest yesterday.  Many asked about where I got the plate and mini cast iron skillet, some asked for the recipes of French pressed coffee and baked egg.  So here’s the info…

Large Plate // Anthropologie

Mini Cup with Spoon // Anthropologie

Mini Cast Iron Skillet // Crate & Barrel

:: To make one cup of French pressed coffee (note: keep in mind that I’m not an expert) -

1. Put two big scoops of freshly ground roasted coffee using a soup spoon (I don’t use measuring cup, not a fan of math) into a French pressed.

2. Slowly pour hot water in evenly.  Here’s the tricky part and I’ve tested this many times – count 5 seconds on a normal speed.  (you might want to keep testing this until you get your coffee to the way you like)

3. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.  I like my coffee dark, so I let it sit for a longer time.  Again, keep testing the timing til you get it perfect.

4. Put warmed milk (or cold. I just like my coffee hot) and sugar into the cup first, then pour the coffee.  I find my coffee smoother if I put the milk and sugar in first.  Even better, sometimes I use sweeten condensed milk instead.

:: To make baked egg -

1. Pre heat oven to 325°F.

2. Break 1 egg into each lightly greased skillet.

3. Spoon milk evenly over eggs.

4. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

5. Bake for about 10 minutes in 325°F oven until egg white is set and yolk begins to thicken.
