Slow Scrambled Eggs Recipes

SLOW SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add eggs and cook, stirring and scraping bottom of pan occasionally to prevent sticking, until large curds form and mixture is mostly set but still wet, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt. Immediately transfer to a bowl; serve.

THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS

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.

LOW AND SLOW SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream and some salt and pepper. Heat a large nonstick saute pan over low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt and start to froth a bit. Add the egg mixture.
• Using a heat-resistant spatula, continually stir the eggs until super soft curds form. One of my new favorite kitchen tools is a heat-proof silicon spatula. It fits perrrrrfectly for these eggs, neatly and gently scraping - that's not the right word - grazing, the sides of your pan. Never stop doing this kind motion: allllll around the pan in a circular scrape, followed by a push push push of the eggs from the outside toward the center. Repeat it all until done! Everything keeps moving.
• This process could take anywhere between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on your stovetop, so take your time. Once the curds form and the eggs are cooked, garnish with chopped herbs and serve immediately. Oh, and serve with my one true love, bacon, if you so choose and why wouldn't you?

SLOW-COOKER MAKE-AHEAD SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Crumble bacon; set aside. Reserve 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in skillet. Add mushrooms to drippings; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Remove from skillet; set aside. Wipe skillet clean with paper towel.
• Melt margarine in same skillet over medium heat. Beat eggs in large bowl. Add half-and-half, salt and pepper; blend well. Add egg mixture to skillet; cook over medium heat until firm but still moist, stirring occasionally. Stir in soup and chives.
• Place half of egg mixture in 3 1/2 or 4-quart slow cooker. Top with half each of the cooked mushrooms, tomatoes, cheese and crumbled bacon. Repeat layers.
• Serve immediately, or cover and keep warm on low setting for up to 4 hours.

SLOW-SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH POTATOES, MUSHROOMS, AND BACON

Steps:

• Put the potato dice in a small pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until cooked through but still firm, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool. In a medium skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove it with tongs or a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Add the potatoes to the leftover bacon fat, and cook over medium heat until golden brown and crisp on all sides, about 7 minutes. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook until mushrooms are tender and lightly brown. Drain any excess fat from the pan and set it aside while you cook the eggs.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat. In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs and cream. Pour the eggs into the pan and stir with a wooden spoon or plastic spatula until they just begin to thicken, about 10 minutes.
• At this point, lower the heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, season with salt and pepper, and continue to stir. Don't cheat-in order to make the eggs as creamy as possible, it's important to stir gently and continuously, and take your time. When the eggs begin to thicken, after about 5 minutes, remove the pot from the heat.
• Warm the brioche or toast the bread lightly. Set the potato-mushroom mixture over medium heat, add the bacon, and warm thoroughly. Return the eggs to low heat and cook until they will just barely hold together and resemble a thick, creamy sauce, then spoon them over the brioche or toast. Spoon the potato mixture over or around the eggs and sprinkle with chives.
