Wet a clean kitchen towel with warm water, it should be pretty damp. Wet the blade of your knife and slice one egg lengthwise through the center in one continuous motion (don’t saw the egg!). Use the towel to clean the blade and wet the knife and repeat with remaining eggs, cleaning the blade after each cut.’, ‘Scoop out yolks and transfer to a food processor.
