Egg Chicks

1. Carefully peel a hard-boiled egg so as not to damage the white.

2. Make diagonal cuts around one end of the egg.

3. Remove the top. This should expose the yolk.

4. Carefully clean up the loose pieces of egg white.

5. Cut off the bottom to act as a base.

6. Use bits of carrot and raisin to make the face.

This recipe is from a great garnish book that Jack's mom, Melissa, has: More Japanese Garnishes by Yukido and Bob Haydock.

I made these this morning, 'cause I thought they were too cute. : )
