Cooking instruction summary:

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray four 1-cup ramekins with olive oil cooking spray and place them on a baking sheet. Or use a muffin pan.Butter the bread slices all over, then place each slice of bread inside a ramekin, pressing gently to tuck it inside the ramekin, allowing flower-like edges to form (see photos below). Break an egg into each slice.Bake until whites are cooked, around 20 minutes. Yolks will likely be semi-soft at this point.Remove from oven. Gently release each basket from its ramekin.

Food Trivia

Several ancient cultures viewed the apple as a feminine symbol and found a resemblance between the two halves of a vertically cut apple to the female genital system. Alternatively, an apple cut horizontally resembled a pentagram, which was considered key in revealing knowledge of good and evil.

Food Joke

Father, mother and son decide to go to the zoo one day. So they set off and are seeing lots of animals. Eventually they end up opposite the elephant house. The boy looks at the elephant, sees its willy, points to it and says, "Mummy, what is that long thing?" His mother replies, "That, son, is the elephant's trunk." "No, at the other end." "That, son is the tail." "No, mummy, the thing under the elephant." A short embarrassed silence after which she replies, "That's nothing." The mother goes to buy some ice-cream and the boy, not being satisfied with her answer, asks his father the same question. "Daddy, what is that long thing?" "That's the trunk, son," replies the father. "No at the other end." "Oh, that is the tail." "No, no daddy, the thing below," asks the son in desperation. "That is the elephants penis. Why do you ask son?" "Well mummy said it was nothing," says the boy. Replies the father: "I tell you, I spoil that woman ..."
