Method

For the eggshells

Using a large needle, make a small hole in one end of the egg and another larger one (about 0.5 mm) on the opposite side, so that you can insert the nozzle of a pastry bag. Blow through the small hole so that the contents come out, rinse each shell under running water and soak it in a saline solution obtained with 100 g of salt and 1 litre of water for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clean water and cover them with boiling water. Drain them well and dry them on paper towels.

For the ganache

Melt the chocolate and cream over a bain-marie, mix well and leave to rest in the fridge for 4-5 hours.

For the mini cakes

Melt the dark chocolate with the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Once it has melted, let it cool down. Then add the sugar, yogurt, eggs, one at a time, mix with a whisk and add a pinch of salt. Add the flour, cocoa powder, grated orange zest and mix with a whisk until you obtain a homogeneous mixture. Line a muffin tin with aluminium foil, so that the eggshells can stand upright. Pour a teaspoon of sunflower seed oil into each eggshell and turn it so that the oil coats the inside letting the excess flow out. Pour the mixture into each eggshell using a pastry bag and filling it up to 1 cm from the edge. Bake at 180º C for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool down.

For the decorations

Rinse and dry the strawberries well, cut them into slices and make the flowers using a biscuit cutter. Take the ganache out of the fridge and whisk it using an electric hand mixer.

Plating

Remove a part of the eggshell and decorate it with tufts of ganache using a pastry bag fitted with a star nozzle. Put the strawberry flowers on the ends using a Samurai Love Skewer and serve each portion in a single egg cup.
