[Charles II Stuart (1630-1685)]

Eggs and ambergris was reportedly Charles II Stuart’s favourite dish

Citaat:

Ambergris isn’t actually a rock, however, and when crumbled it melts quickly. The heat of the eggs is sufficient to cause the small pieces to release their aroma, permeating the dish. I prefer fried to scrambled eggs, as the ambergris sizzles quickly on the surface and suffuses the whites thoroughly. The result is strangely marvelous because the eggs are delicately but mysteriously perfumed, a little like vanilla in an alternate universe. For some reason eggs prepared this way don’t really go well with bacon, but toast is just fine.
