What to do with four yolks?

[Vernon]

I need a blow torch...

Get one. You won’t regret it!

If you live...

Nothing fancy. Mayonnaise, I guess. I’m not making custard.
Anything else?

Throw them at the local Tories?

Mayonnaise is one option. Hollandaise is another.

Carbonara, perhaps.

Can’t think why you would turn your nose up at custard.

Isn't custard really hard to make, or is that something else?

Carbonara is a good idea, though. And I have some ham.

My first attempt at proper egg custard was a complete success, so it can't be at all hard to make. If I can do it . . . .

What? When I have perfectly good broken bricks available?

Indeed. Back a page I had the same experience. I don’t know why I expected it to be like splitting atoms or buttoning up those quilt covers that have the buttons on the inside…

If I have yolks left over, I always make creme brulee. Always. Any excuse. I like to flavour the custard with bay rather than vanilla.

Dyl (14) and I made crème brûlées and they were bloody lush!

We used this recipe (multiplied by 4/5 because of the number of yolks available): https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/ultimate-creme-brulee.

(We didn’t bother spraying the sugar with water before setting about it with fire and I can’t say what difference it would have made)
