PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
  • TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
  • Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
  • Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
  • Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.

SUNNY'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED CHEESY EGGS

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 17m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 tablespoons butter
12 eggs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick pan with sloped sides (even a wok shape works), melt the butter over medium-low heat, being careful to not brown the butter. If it begins to bubble, the heat is too high, so lower the heat to cook the eggs properly. (Slow and low like BBQ is the way to go with eggs.)
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the eggs and 1 teaspoon cold water. Vigorously whisk until frothy and smooth. Swirl the pan around to coat the butter on the bottom and up the sides. Pour the eggs into the pan and let sit for a few seconds. When the eggs begin to lightly set on the bottom, use the whisk to gently beat the eggs, then allow them to sit for just a few seconds between beating them again. Curds will begin to form and increase throughout the cooking time. Repeat this process of whisking then resting the eggs for a few seconds until about 50 percent of the eggs are set and the rest are still wet. At this point, sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper and continue to whisk and rest alternately. Once the eggs are 75 percent done, add the cheese and from this moment, continue to whisk the eggs until done. This entire process from pouring in the eggs to them being finished should take 8 to 12 minutes; this isn't a race, only a journey to the best scrambled eggs ever. Remove from the heat and continue to scramble in the last seconds. Serve warm.

PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS



Perfect Scrambled Eggs image

Easiest thing in the world, right? And sure, anyone can scramble eggs, but Perfect Scrambled Eggs...there are a few tricks of the trade: first, use a nonstick pan. Second, cook over low heat. Give yourself a little time. Third, undercook them! Cut the flame just before you think your eggs are done and let the carry-over heat finish cooking them. Fourth, butter. Lots of butter. That plus a touch of creme fraiche. Fifth, do not season with salt until the very end. Follow these rules and you will never have flabby, rubbery scrambled eggs again.

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 large eggs
4 tablespoons creme fraiche
4 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
1/4 cup romesco
4 ounces bucheron cheese

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk until light and frothy and uniform in color. Strain the eggs through a mesh strainer into a bowl. Whisk in the creme fraiche.
  • Heat the butter in a large nonstick pan over medium-low heat until it melts. Add the eggs and gently mix using a heat resistant rubber spatula or a wooden spoon until soft curds form.
  • Remove from the heat (the eggs will still be somewhat wet), season with salt and pepper and let the heat of the pan finish cooking them for another 1 minute. Gently fold in any of the Optional Additions just as the eggs are coming off the heat, if using.

PERFECT HAM AND CHEESE SCRAMBLED EGGS



Perfect Ham and Cheese Scrambled Eggs image

I hate scrambled eggs. Except, that is, when I make them. These, I like. If you're looking for firm eggs, go somewhere else; these are both moist and gooey, while not undercooked (I have a horror of salmonella). Simply double to serve 3 to 4 (or two people with bigger appetites).

Categories     Breakfast

Time 5m

Yield 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (I use Lea & Perrins, of course)
2 tablespoons nonfat milk or 2 tablespoons low-fat milk
salt and pepper
1 slice cooked ham, chopped into bite-size pieces
1/4-1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese or 1/4-1/3 cup Mexican blend cheese
nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Spray non-stick frying pan with cooking spray.
  • Heat up over medium to medium-high heat.
  • (Use medium on an electric stove, medium-high on a gas.) While pan is heating, whisk together eggs, Worcestershire sauce, milk, salt, and pepper with a fork, just until blended.
  • Pour into pan and stir continually for about 2 to 3 minutes, until eggs are cooked.
  • Because of the milk, they will remain moist, but they should not be runny or sticky.
  • Turn off heat, but leave pan on burner.
  • Add ham and cheese.
  • Stir until everything is mixed, ham is heated, and cheese is melted.
  • Yum!

PERFECT MICROWAVED SCRAMBLED EGGS AND CHEESE FOR ONE.



Perfect Microwaved Scrambled Eggs and Cheese for One. image

Scrambling eggs in the microwave is a one dish affair. No muss, no fuss. These come out perfectly and taste delicious. Found this in an issue of Everyday Food. Microwave cooking times vary and mine actually needs 55 seconds at each step instead of the 45 seconds listed. Don't add extra salt until you've tasted it.
