Preparation
Prepare the cheese 1 day ahead.
Combine the cheese, milk and water in a big bowl and place the bowl in a basin of warm water.
Let it sit for 3 hours, then strain the mixture and retain the solid part.
Keep refrigerated overnight.
The next day, mix the cheese with some half-whipped cream to smoothen its texture.
Peel the crayfish carefully and cut each tail into 5 medallions.
Process the walnut oil and walnuts in a blender to obtain a smooth puree.
Peel the grapes.
Preheat the salamander or oven to 200°C (392°F).
Divide the cheese mixture among 4 soup plates.
Place an egg yolk on each plate and arrange 5 peeled grapes next to each yolk to form a circle.
Drizzle some walnut puree over and place the plates under the intense heat until a light brown crust forms on the sauce and the egg yolks are just cooked.
