NEW YORK, May 17 — Meet cloud eggs, the latest food trend flooding your Instagram feed. (Unicorn lattes are so last week, by the way.)

So how do you make your breakfast look like a puffy mass that descended from the sky?

Basically, it involves a technique that makes the whites puff up — exactly like clouds.

According to The Washington Post:

  1. First, you separate the eggs and the yolks.
  2. Then you whip the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
  3. Stir in some Parmesan cheese (chives and ham, if you desire), and scoop out the fluffy eggs onto a baking sheet covered in parchment paper.
  4. Make a little indentation for the yolk, but don't put it in yet.
  5. Bake the clouds for two minutes.
  6. Take them out and add the yolk. Bake for another three.

And voila! Your very own airy twist on traditional baked eggs.
