So.....how do you make your scrambled eggs? Any secrets you wanna share?

For me...I like cheese melted in after I whip them up before I put them in the pan. Then once done, I sprinkle green tobasco on top. Yummy.
 
Eggs are the debbil

The secret to soft fluffy scrambled eggs is to use butter and low heat.
I like mine with cheddar cheese and onions.
I use an induction hotplate that allows me to set the temperature to exactly 250 degrees.
I guess you could set the temperature to low on a regular stove.
High heat scrambled eggs makes them hard and dry and it ruins the flavor and the texture.

Here is how you make unbelievable melt in your mouth scrambled eggs as taught me by a gourmet chef:
  1. Add eggs to a sauce pan and scramble. Add in a generous amount of butter.
  2. Put over very low heat and begin to whisk until the butter is melted and whisked in.
  3. Whisk eggs until they appear to start to firm up a little. Take off heat and allow to cool enough to avoid them hardening.
  4. Put back on very low heat and whisk again just short of before they stiffen up again, remove from heat, whisk a little.
  5. This time put back on very low heat and begin whisking. Just as they begin to firm up, add in a large dollop of creme fraiche. If you don't have any, sour creme will work in a pinch. Continue to whisk the eggs whisking the creme fraiche in as they firm to form the final scrambled eggs. Remember not to overcook them, they should be very soft and moist, but not runny. Serve with a little black pepper as preferred. Yum.
 
Fry some mushrooms first and then add to eggs.
You can have it on toast.

What's the purpose of taking eggs of heat in steps 3 and 4?

To keep them from turning into scrambled eggs too quickly. Keeping the eggs below the temp required to "cook" the eggs through most of the process gives them more body when they are finally done by making them airier.
 
I love a good room. If you can find wild mushrooms or just some shiitake mushrooms, even tastier!


Same here.

I can't understand how some people don't like mushrooms!

They are delish and very versatile :up:
 
I love shrooms...but only if uncooked. Just rinse them babies off, sprinkle with salt..chow down. Or slice in a nice cool salad. Cooked? Barf..gag...barfbarfbarf.
