Marbled Eggs With Crabmeat Filling Recipes

SLOW SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CRABMEAT AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in small pan and pour in eggs. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir the eggs constantly, lifting up as they start to cook to keep the uncooked eggs on the bottom of the pan. This process takes much patience and a lot more time than regular scrambled eggs. Keep stirring until eggs, finally start to thicken and become creamy in texture. You should not be able to discern any big pieces, just one homogenous mixture. When eggs are cooked, but still creamy, stir in 2 more tablespoons butter, and season with salt and pepper. While eggs are finishing, melt the teaspoon of butter in another pan and gently warm up the crabmeat. Season with salt and pepper and mix in the chives. Divide the eggs among 4 ramekins, egg shells or toast points and top with the warm crabmeat. This dish is even more heavenly with the addition of minced or shaved truffles. Or substitute wild mushroom for the crabmeat.;
• WILD MUSHROOMS:
• Saute mushrooms lightly in butter. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over eggs.;

MARBLED DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Gently crack egg shells, do not remove shells.
• I use large clean mayonnaise jars to colour the eggs, turning occasionally.
• Submerge 6 eggs in beet juice, adding a few dashes of red food colouring.
• Submerge 6 eggs in jalapeno juice, adding a few dashes of green food colouring Refrigerate 1- 2 days, marbling and flavour will intensify the longer left in juices and by adding more food colourings If using food colouring's only, place cracked eggs in jars large enough to submerge, checking on intensity of colours Remove eggs from juices, drain well and peel.
• Split in halves, removing yolks.
• Combine yolks, filling ingredients and any options, adjust to your taste.
• Refill halves with mixture.
• Sprinkle with any choice of toppings.
• Refrigerate till ready to serve.
• *Instead of deviling, I use my mushroom slicer to make fan out slices of the marbled eggs to garnish potato salade, very pretty touch.
