SUNNY'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED CHEESY EGGS



Sunny's Perfect Scrambled Cheesy Eggs image

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.

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.

THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS



The Best Scrambled Eggs image

For silky, outrageously good scrambled eggs, cook them low and slow. This method, which Mark Bittman learned from James Beard, is very low and very slow: you place the eggs over very low heat, stirring frequently, breaking up the curds as they form. The results are without compare. Make them for breakfast on the weekend, while the coffee brews and the bacon fries.

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 or 5 eggs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons butter or extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them, just until the yolks and whites are combined. Season with salt and pepper and beat in the cream.
  • Put a medium skillet, preferably non-stick, over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add the butter or oil and swirl it around the pan. After the butter melts, but before it foams, turn the heat to low.
  • Add the eggs to the skillet and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. At first nothing will happen; after 10 minutes or so, the eggs will begin to form curds. Do not lose patience: Keep stirring, breaking up the curds as they form, until the mixture is a mass of soft curds. This will take 30 minutes or more. Serve immediately.

THE SECRET TO FLUFFY SCRAMBLED EGGS



The Secret to Fluffy Scrambled Eggs image

In search of tender, fluffy scrambled eggs? Here's the only ingredient you need, and the chef-approved method for how to make scrambled eggs worthy of any morning. And, no... you don't add milk! Garnish with creme fraiche or sour cream, hot sauce, and chopped herbs.

Provided by Edible Times

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ cup diced bell pepper
¼ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
4 large eggs
1 pinch salt
4 teaspoons butter

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.

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.

Provided by Bobby Flay

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.

EXTRA-CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS



Extra-Creamy Scrambled Eggs image

Adding a small amount of a starchy slurry to scrambled eggs - a technique learned from Mandy Lee of the food blog Lady & Pups - prevents them from setting up too firmly, resulting in eggs that stay tender and moist, whether you like them soft-, medium- or hard-scrambled. Potato or tapioca starch is active at slightly lower temperatures than cornstarch and will produce a slightly more tender scramble, but cornstarch works just fine if it's what you've got on hand. Make sure your skillet is at just the right temperature by heating a tablespoon of water in the skillet and waiting for it to evaporate. For creamier eggs, you can replace the water with milk or half-and-half.

Provided by J. Kenji López-Alt

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy, quick

Time 5m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 teaspoons potato starch, tapioca starch or cornstarch
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
4 eggs (see Note)
Pinch of kosher salt

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.
