Ingredients for 6
6 eggs
1/4 c creme fraiche
1/4 c cream cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fresh or frozen peas
2 Tablespoons finely chopped shallot

3/4 cup crumbled feta

Step 2
In a blender, mix the eggs, creme fraiche, cream cheese, and salt

-
Step 4
Lay 6 jars out on a work surface and divide liquid between them
-
Step 5
Divide pea mixture between jars
-
Step 6
Attach lids to fingertip tightness. This means using only the pressure of your fingertips to close the jar, leaving it just a little loose, to allow the air pressure to be able to be released while in the bath. This will prevent both jar failure and water from getting into your ingredients

Finishing Steps

Step 0
Remove from the bath with tongs and enjoy straight from the jar or slide a knife around the edge, pressing gently inwards to loosen. Invert on a plate and with a swift downward jerking motion holding onto plate and jar at the same time, pop the egg bite out of the jar. You can either reheat and/or brown in a toaster oven, under a broiler, or with a torch. Bon appetit!
