Vegan Oeufs à la Fondue de Fromage

[Vegan Poached Eggs on Canapés with Cheese Fondue Sauce]

...Julia says this sauce is "especially good for eggs"...

...start off by cooking some shallots or green onions for a couple of minutes without browning them...

...then add a small clove of minced garlic...

...then add some wine...

...and some stock...I used this stock base...

...thicken with cornstarch and add cream...I used cashew cream...and then add the cheese...I used Miyoko's Aged Cheddar...

...add salt, pepper and freshly grated nutmeg...

...prepare your Vegan Canapés...

...and this time instead of forming my vegan egg whites in spoons...I decided to just pour it free form onto a plate and let it set up there...

...carefully lifted it onto the Canapés

...letting the whites set up flat like this actually worked out better...I may try that for 'fried eggs' sometime too...

...and then added Sam's VEGAN TOAST DIPPING SAUCE (VEGAN EGG YOLK)...for the yolk...

...and we served the Oeufs like that...although Julia says to add the sauce and the cheese and run it under the broiler...

...I thought this presentation was prettier...

...and we had our cheese sauce in the gravy boat...

...and just poured that over our eggs at the table...

...it was really delicious...deep rich flavors of wine and cheese and a hint of garlic...
