Creamy Scrambled Eggs With Fines Herbes Recipes

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.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FINES HERBES AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl, reserving 2 yolks in a separate bowl. To the large mixing bowl add the fines herbes, salt, and pepper. Combine with a whisk.
• Combine the heavy cream and the mustard with the reserved egg yolks and mix well.
• In a heavy saute pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. When the butter is melted, add the whole egg mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until creamy and slightly thickened.
• Add the yolk mixture and the tomatoes to the slightly thickened egg mixture And remove from the heat while continuing to stir constantly. The heat in the pan will continue to cook the eggs. Perfectly scrambled eggs should be creamy with very soft curds. Sprinkle with the chives and serve.

CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH EDIBLE FLOWERS AND FINES HERBS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, chervil, tarragon, parsley, chives and a little salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, melt the butter, add the eggs, and stir over a low heat until the eggs are just beginning to set.
• In the skillet, stir in the goat cheese and continue to cook briefly, still stirring occasionally until the cheese melts. Add the edible flowers. To serve, spoon some eggs onto the rye bread and place on a plate with a sprig of parsley on top for garnish.
• Serve immediately.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FINES HERBES AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl, reserving 2 yolks in a smaller separate bowl. Add the herbs (reserving a little for garnishing), salt and pepper to the large bowl of eggs. Mix with a whisk.
• In the smaller bowl of egg yolks, whisk in the mustard and creme fraiche. Mix well.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet. When melted, add the large bowl of eggs and cook, stirring constantly, until creamy and just barely thickened.
• Add the yolk mixture and the tomatoes to the skillet. Stir once or twice to incorporate, and remove from the heat. They will continue to cook off the heat.
• Prepare the plate, serve the eggs garnished with some of the herbs.

CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FINES HERBES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, herbs, and salt; stir in 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• Heat a small skillet over medium low heat; add egg mixture and cook, while stirring, so that the eggs do not set too fast.
• The eggs will begin to set and form a creamy sauce; add in the remaining butter, one piece at a time, continuing to stir.
• Arrange the toasts on serving plates.
• Once the eggs set (they will still be creamy, but firm) spoon them over the toast, season with pepper and the remaining herbs, and serve immediately.
