Double-Boiler Scrambled Eggs image

You will not find any lighter or fluffier scrambled eggs than these my Mom taught me to make. These take a little longer than scrambling in pan. The time is worth it. They are creamy, fluffy and light. The secret is cooking them slowly over low heat in a double boiler. They are truly decadent and adding cheese or herbs only...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 large eggs
1/2 c cream ~ can use milk
1 tsp salt ~
1/4 tsp white pepper can use black pepper
3-1/2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp chopped fresh herbs ~ your favorite if wanted

Steps:

  • 1. Place a couple inches of water in the bottom of a double boiler and heat until boiling, reduce the heat to very low.
  • 2. Place the top of the double-boiler in place when water is simmering. Add the butter
  • 3. Whisk the eggs, cream, salt and pepper together. At this point you can add fresh herbs chopped, Place in top half of the double-boiler in the melted butter.
  • 4. Cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon or spatula, until eggs are thickened into soft curds, 15 minutes or when they are the consistency you want. Just remember as long as they are over the water they will continue to cook.

I'm not sure why, but my eggs didn't turn out as creamy as I thought they would.

These eggs were a bit too runny for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

The double boiler method is a great way to make scrambled eggs. It allows you to control the temperature of the eggs, so you can cook them slowly and evenly.
