This dish should be called “Huevos Sophisticados.” It is the cleanest, most organized huevos rancheros I have ever come across. The whole dish is served in a shallow bowl. First come the black beans, then a scrambled egg patty with a heavy drizzle of charred tomato salsa on top, and off to the side are guacamole and a giant, but neatly folded, flour tortilla. Dumont fine-tunes this typical Mexican breakfast with elegant details. White cheese is melted into the beans, adding a subtle flavor but a distinctive stringy texture. The guacamole is tasty and makes a crisp, refreshing contrast to the hearty beans. Finally, the charred tomato salsa adds a beautiful creamy orange color and a faint smoky flavor. This dish is a heavy one, so take your time and enjoy it.
