Oeufs en meurette is my favorite brunch dish at Balthazar in NYC, in case you find yourself in the area and feel like comparing.

Laurie’s been to Balthazar but I never have. I’d love to try their oeufs. Thanks!

For the foie gras, I just gave up and finished the sauce with a large amount of regular butter.

Ah well, a noble compromise. After all, a large amount of butter has done French chef’s well all these years…

Have you tried poaching your egg inside a ring mold? I think that’s what a lot of restaurants do to get that nice symmetrical shape.

I’ve occasionally coveted one of those egg-poaching pans with the nonstick cups.
