Herbs and Eggs

Nothing too inspiring, but it's tasty in its simplicity. Just some good bacon, potato bread, and eggs. For the eggs I started by sauteing some shallots in butter. Once the shallots were softened I added the eggs, minced thyme and parsley, salt and pepper, and some more butter. The thyme takes things to a nice place, and the butter makes the cheese-free eggs super rich.

Below, five points if you can guess what's going on. It's a traditional food product made with what I was able to pick up around here. Hint. So far it's just shad roe and some salt.
