Inspired by his new crowdfunded Anova Precision Cooker, Dude Foods's Nick Chipman created this recipe for sous vide egg yolks -- but with a twist. The deep fried treats are breaded with Fruit Loops cereal. He also considered breading them with bacon pieces like Culinary Bro-Down's Doritos-crusted sous vide egg yolk.
The Deep Fried Froot Loops Breaded Sous Vide Egg Yolks revamps a sous vide egg yolk croquettes recipe by coating the yolks in cereal rather than bread crumbs, keeping with a breakfast food theme. Cooking them in the Anova machine gives the yolks a custard-like texture that is so enjoyable, according to Chipman, that going back to eating regular eggs seems like a near-impossible task.
