Cured Egg Yolk with Smoked Herring & Pumpernickel Soldiers

Name: Cured Egg Yolk with Smoked Herring & Pumpernickel Soldiers
Prep time: 240 min
Cook time: 3 min
Total time: 243 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 2 duck egg yolks (or 4 quail yolks), separated from whites; 2 tablespoons sea salt; 2 tablespoons sugar; 2 tablespoons water; 80g smoked herring fillet, flaked into pieces; 2 thick slices pumpernickel bread; ½ tablespoon unsalted butter; 1 teaspoon fresh dill fronds; ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice; Cracked black pepper to taste

A single duck or quail egg yolk cured in salt and sugar becomes jammy and intensely flavored, then crumbled over silky smoked herring and served with thin pumpernickel toast soldiers. This is intermediate technique—brining, a proper sear for the yolk, and precise plating—that feels genuinely novel.
