Notes
- Ensure the parsley is very finely chopped or it might get stuck in the icing bag nozzle.
- Traditionally Oeufs Mimosa uses fresh parsley but you can experiment with fresh or dry herbs of your choice.
- Adding boiled eggs immediately to ice water makes them easy to peel and also avoids yolks from getting overcooked.
- On average, it takes 10-12 minutes to hard boil an egg.
