This is the kind of plate you would be served at the counter, recreated step by step for home. Quail eggs cook in just two and a half minutes and peel easily after an ice bath. Partially freezing beef for 30 minutes makes paper-thin slicing easy. Set everything out before you start so assembly flows without stopping.
