Begin by making the hot honey. Add all of the ingredients except the apple cider vinegar to a pot over medium heat
Bring to a gentle simmer, then turn off the heat and leave the honey to infuse for 2 minutes
Stir through the apple cider vinegar, then transfer to a container to cool for 4 hours
Meanwhile separate the yolks from the egg whites, and place into a container leaving enough room so that they are not overlapping
Pour the cooled hot honey over the egg yolks, making sure they are fully submerged
Cover with a lid, and leave in the fridge for 2–4 days to cure
Once cured, mix together the cottage cheese and finely sliced chives, reserving some for garnish
Spread the cottage cheese mix over the toasted sourdough, then spoon over the cured egg yolks and some of the honey and chillies
Sprinkle with a few more chives, and serve
