Barbara Walters Scrambled Eggs Recipes

BARBARA WALTERS' SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt, chives, and cheese. Beat ingredients together with a fork and set aside.
• Heat butter in a small nonstick skillet until melted. Add egg mixture. Using a heatproof rubber spatula, gently pull the eggs from the side of the skillet. As the eggs start to set, stir them gently until curds form, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate; serve immediately.

PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

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.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk the eggs until the yolks and the whites are cohesive and light yellow.
• Add the butter to a nonstick pan and heat over medium-low heat. When the butter is melted, add the eggs and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue moving the eggs with a rubber spatula; after a few minutes, some curds will start forming. Keep stirring and scraping the pan until the eggs come together, are creamy and look almost like a custard. This process can take between 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from heat. Season with salt.
• To serve, spoon the eggs onto the toast. Top with freshly ground black pepper.

GORDON RAMSAY'S SCRAMBLED EGGS

• Remove from heat when eggs are clumpy, but soft.
• Season with freshly ground black pepper and garnish with a sprinkling of chopped chives.

SCRAMBLED EGGS (KINDA LIKE CRACKER BARREL'S)

Steps:

• Beat egg(s) with water in a small bowl and put in the refrigerator.
• Melt about a teaspoon of margarine or butter in a small pan over medium-high heat until VERY hot. (The cooking show I based this on said to let it heat until you are basically scared to let it get any hotter.).
• Pour refrigerated egg(s) into hot pan, and begin stirring lightly with a spatula to stop eggs from burning. (A little brown is okay; just fold it into the inside of the egg.).
• When eggs have reached your preferred consistency, fold and remove from pan to a plate.

THE SECRET TO FLUFFY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute bell pepper and mushrooms until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk eggs with salt until completely combined and very foamy.
• Melt butter in another skillet over low heat until bubbling. Add eggs and stir frequently for even, moist curds, 2 to 3 minutes. Once eggs are thickened and creamy, but still shiny, add sauteed vegetables, and stir to incorporate. Remove scrambled eggs from the pan before they begin to look dry, as they will continue to thicken off the heat.

MARTHA'S SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk eggs well; season with salt and pepper. Toast and butter English muffin; place on a plate and keep warm in a 200°F oven. Melt clarified butter in a small or medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• Add eggs and cook, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula, until large curds form and are just barely set, about 2 minutes. Transfer immediately to muffin halves. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve hot, with asparagus and bacon.
