Killer Scrambled Eggs Recipes

KILLER SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Crack 7 whole eggs into a medium bowl. Separate remaining egg. Add yolk to the bowl; reserve white for another use. Pour in milk. Whisk until thoroughly combined and bubbles form on top.
• Melt bacon grease in a pan over medium heat. Pour in egg mixture, followed by bacon bits. Cook and stir until set but still moist, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt.

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.

THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl until the mixture is homogenous.
• Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture, then increase the heat to medium-high. Stir with a rubber spatula until curds begin to form. Lower the heat to low and add the creme fraiche and chives. Stir until the creme fraiche is fully incorporated and the eggs are just set.
• Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.

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.

EXTRA-CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together starch with 1 1/2 tablespoons water until no lumps remain. Add half the butter cubes to starch mixture. Add eggs and salt, and whisk, breaking up any cubes of butter that have stuck together, until the eggs are frothy and homogenous. (There will still be solid chunks of butter in the eggs.)
• Set your serving plate near the stovetop. Heat 1 tablespoon water in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high, swirling gently until the water evaporates, leaving behind only a few small droplets. Immediately add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and swirl vigorously until the butter is mostly melted and foamy but not brown, about 10 seconds.
• Immediately add the egg mixture and cook, pushing and folding the eggs with a spatula, until they are slightly less cooked than you'd like them, about 1 to 2 minutes, depending on doneness. More vigorous stirring will result in finer, softer curds, while more leisurely stirring will result in larger, fluffier curds. Immediately transfer to the serving plate, and serve.

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.

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.

SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Use a fork to beat eggs together. Melt butter in medium nonstick skillet over low heat. Add egg mixture. Using a heatproof flexible spatula, gently pull eggs to the center of the pan and let the liquid parts run out under the perimeter. Cook, continually moving eggs with the spatula, just until eggs are set, 1 1/2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; serve hot.
