Hungarian Jewish Eggs on Toast

Eden Batki

I first learned of Jewish eggs when I ordered them at the famous Rosenstein’s restaurant, the oldest still-standing Jewish dining establishment in Budapest. Their dish is essentially egg salad but made with goose fat instead of mayo, onion, salt and paprika. For this recipe, I thought it would be interesting to mix a Middle Eastern/Asian condiment with caraway seed and a heavy dose of real Hungarian paprika.
