Cara Nicoletti is joined by Wylie Dufresne, the American chef behind wd-50 that helped bring molecular gastronomy to NY, to show us how to add a scientific twist to a breakfast classic: the bacon egg and cheese. After scrambling eggs, he liquifies them in a blender and then uses a cooking siphon to aerate the eggs with NO2. He then shoots them into an eclair pasty shell and garnishes them with dehydrated ham to create a dish that appears to be a classic eclair. The end result is a super creamy, salty surprise that any breakfast sandwich enthusiasts needs to try. Subscribe to Munchies here: All Munchies videos release a full week early on our site: Hungry?
