- To prevent shell crumbs from getting into the eggs, break the egg flat instead of hitting the top of the bowl.
Do you know? This is when you can add salt to keep the eggs soft, but the eggs can be a bit gray if you add salt before cooking.
- If you like, you can use olive oil or coconut oil instead of butter.
- If you like a soft stirring egg, don't heat the butter first, pour the eggs and pour the butter into the pan at the same time.
Pour the eggs into the pan and turn low to low heat. Slowly pour the beaten egg into the pan. You should hear a sizzling sound when the eggs hit the bottom of the pan. Then turn to low heat so that the eggs don't cook too quickly.
- If you like to eat soft eggs, remove the pan from the stove and stir for about 30 seconds. Alternately stir as the pan is on the stove and lift from the stove until the eggs are soft.
Advice: If you like smooth stirring eggs, stir or whisk quickly while you cook. If you like the egg with a larger curd, stir slowly and gently to prevent the egg from melting.
- To add flavor to your scrambled egg, you can use your favorite spices instead of salt and pepper.
Heat the eggs in the microwave for 1.5 minutes on high. Microwave the egg bowl and cook for 30 seconds. Pause and stir the eggs before continuing to cook for another 30 seconds. Stop and stir the eggs again, then microwave again for the last 30 seconds.
- The eggs will set and solidify when they are done.
Advice: If you want to add more herbs, add in when the eggs are just cooked. Try parsley, onion, or basil.
advertisementMethod 3 of 3: Experiment with variations
- Stir in a little more milk to make the egg richer. To keep the eggs undercooked and fatty, stir a tablespoon of the dairy product into the egg. For example, you can use cream cheese, sour cream, French sour cream, mascarpone cheese or cottage cheese.
- If using cream cheese, you need to soften it in the microwave for 10-20 seconds. That way, the cheese won't get clumped in the scrambled egg dish.
- Add your favorite cheeses for a richer flavor. Many people like to put a handful of shredded cheese into a loose egg, others like to sprinkle cheese over a cooked egg. You can use one type of cheese or a combination of many favorite flavors. Try the following cheeses:
- Cheddar cheese
- Mozzarella
- Feta cheese
- Goat milk cheese
- Parmesan cheese
- Smoked gouda cheese
- Stir in the meat for a salty flavor. If you want to add raw meat to an egg, such as bacon or raw chorizo sausage, you need to cook the meat in a pan before you pour the eggs. If using cooked meat, put the meat in the eggs 1 minute before taking it off the stove to heat it up.
Choice of meats:
Smoked pork
Ham
Sausage
Smoked salmon - Add herbs for flavor. Cut up a few herbs and add to the cooked egg. Use one or a combination of some of your favorite herbs, such as fennel, oregano, basil, parsley or onion.
- A quicker way for a rich aromatic flavor is to stir in some freshly eaten pesto sauce. Remember that this will change the egg's color.
- Decorate your scrambled egg with your favorite sauce or seasoning for a unique flavor. Once you've served the scrambled egg on the plate, you can sprinkle a little more seasoning in place of salt and pepper, such as za’atar herbs or garam masala spice mix. If you prefer to put sauce on eggs, try chili sauce sriracha, salsa verde, soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce.
- A very simple and delicious sauce to put on a scrambled egg is ketchup ketchup.
Advice
- Making the eggs more or less scrambled is up to you. Remember that if you make more eggs, you will need to use a larger pan or make more batches.
- While it's common to add milk to eggs, most chefs and cooking experts agree that this is more harmful than beneficial. Milk, like any other liquid, will cause the egg to split before it is done, resulting in a dry and chewy stirring egg.
