Critical Success Points

  • Precise cooking of the eggs (9 min) to achieve a slightly creamy yolk.
  • Poach the herring over low heat in milk to preserve its delicate texture.
  • Make the sauce without lumps and achieve a coating consistency.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot milk can splatter: handle with care.
  • Use oven mitts when removing the saucepan from the heat.
  • The fish must reach an internal temperature of at least 60°C.
