Scrambled Eggs Kentucky Style Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
• TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
• Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
• Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
• Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.

Steps:

• Put eggs in a bowl with salt, pepper and half the butter.
• Beat the eggs with a fork until well blended.
• Melt butter in a frying pan over moderately low heat, it should cover the pan generously.
• Pour in beaten eggs and cook, scraping and turning the eggs, for 2 minutes, add cream and continue to cook another minute or so.
• They should be creamy don't overcook.
• You can add fresh herbs, cheese, prawns mushrooms into the scrambled eggs if you so desire.

Steps:

• Lightly beat the eggs, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over low heat; swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Add the eggs, and cook slowly, scraping them up with a rubber spatula occasionally, until most of the liquid has thickened and the eggs are soft, about 10 minutes. (If you like your eggs a little firmer, cook them for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.) Remove them from the heat, and gently fold in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Add salt and pepper and chives to eggs. In a small skillet, slowly melt butter over low heat. When foaming subsides, add the eggs and stir continuously over very low heat until the eggs form into a soft creamy mass. When they have almost entirely congealed, remove skillet from heat and continue to stir until silky velvet small curds are formed. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl until the mixture is homogenous.
• Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture, then increase the heat to medium-high. Stir with a rubber spatula until curds begin to form. Lower the heat to low and add the creme fraiche and chives. Stir until the creme fraiche is fully incorporated and the eggs are just set.
• Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place cream cheese in top of double boiler and set over simmering water.
• Cook over low heat until cheese melts; remove from heat and set aside.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add bell peppers and green onion and saute until onion is translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes; blend into cream cheese then stir in corn, mixing thoroughly.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in same skillet over medium-low heat; add eggs and cream cheese mixture.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Cook,stirring occasionally, until eggs are barely set; transfer to heated platter.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in the pan until it begins to bubble.
• Pour in eggs.
• DO NOT LEAVE THE EGGS.
• The should take only 2-3 minute.
• I usually add about 2 slices of American cheese (torn up), or about 4 tablespoons of grated Cheddar, but this is optional.

Steps:

• Lightly whisk 2 large eggs, 6 tbsp single cream or full cream milk and a pinch of salt together until the mixture has just one consistency.
• Heat a small non-stick frying pan for a minute or so, then add a knob of butter and let it melt. Don't allow the butter to brown or it will discolour the eggs.
• Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit, without stirring, for 20 seconds. Stir with a wooden spoon, lifting and folding it over from the bottom of the pan.
• Let it sit for another 10 seconds then stir and fold again.
• Repeat until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places. Remove from the heat and leave for a moment to finish cooking.
• Give a final stir and serve the velvety scramble without delay.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, fry bacon until crisp and brown. Drain bacon on paper towels. Pour off pan drippings except 2 tablespoons Saute mushrooms, corn and green pepper to drippings. Add pimentos and season to taste. Saute until green pepper is soft.
• Meanwhile, beat eggs with water. Melt butter in skillet with vegetables. Pour in eggs and scramble to desired doneness. Serve with bacon or you can crumble the bacon into scrambled egg mixture - your choice.

Steps:

• Crack 3 eggs into a bowl. Beat with fork. Add a splash of water. Stir in desired amount of cheese. Add a dash of pepper and 1/2 tsp of salt.
• Put tablespoon of butter or oil in pan over Medium heat.
• Pour egg/cheese mixture into pan. Stir constantly with spatula until done.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a heavy skillet or nonstick pan. Combine the eggs, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons water in a bowl. Briskly whisk, pour into the skillet, and turn the heat very low. Gently stir the egg mixture, lifting it up and over from the bottom as it thickens. Continue to stir until the desired texture is achieved. They thicken and dry out very quickly toward the end, so if you like them soft and moist, remove them from the heat a little before they reach the desired texture; they will continue to cook after being removed from the pan.
• Scrambled Eggs with Ham.
• Add 1/2 cup finely chopped cooked ham to the egg mixture.
• Scrambled Eggs with Cream Cheese.
• Cut 4 ounces cream cheese into small cubes and add to the eggs after they begin to thicken in the skillet.
• Scrambled Eggs with Chives.
• Add 1 tablespoon chopped chives and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley to the egg mixture, and substitute 2 tablespoons cream for the water.
• Scrambled Eggs with Lox.
• Fry 1/2 onion, sliced, and 2 slices lox in the butter before adding the eggs, and eliminate the salt from the mixture.
• Scrambled Eggs with Chicken Livers.
• Fry two chicken livers, diced, in the butter before adding the egg mixture.
• Scrambled Eggs with Asparagus.
• Add 2/3 cup crisp-cooked asparagus, in 2-inch pieces, to the eggs just after they begin to thicken in the skillet.
• Scrambled Eggs with Peppers and Onions.
• Fry 1/2 red pepper, diced, and 1/4 onion, chopped, in the butter for about 5 minutes before adding the egg mixture.
• Scrambled Eggs with Mushrooms.
• Melt the butter in a heavy skillet. Sauté 1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms with 4 tablespoons finely chopped onion over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes. Lower the heat before adding the egg mixture.
• Cooking Temperature
• No matter what the technique, it is essential to use low, gentle heat when cooking eggs: egg protein beings to thicken at only 144°F, and toughens rapidly. The only exception is omelets; there the bottom is cooked quickly over medium-high heat, but the surface remains slightly runny, making for a soft interior when folded. Serve cooked eggs on warm, not sizzling hot, plates or they will continue to cook after they are removed from the pan.
• Food Safety and Eggs
• There is an ever-growing concern about the threat of salmonella, bacteria that contaminate eggs, poultry, and meat. Because we often eat eggs lightly cooked and even raw (in sauces like mayonnaise, for instance), they pose a greater threat. In trying to assess the seriousness of the problem, I have consulted government agencies - the Food and Drug Administration, the Agricultural Department, and the Centers for Disease Control - and many other food safety experts. The findings are frustrating because there seems to be no collective information as to how many eggs are infected, and how many people have been stricken with salmonella in this country, so there is no way of knowing the degree of risk one is taking when eating raw or lightly cooked eggs, which are used in many recipes. Government officials recommend that immuno-compromised patients, the very young and the elderly, all of whom are the most severely affected when stricken, should not eat raw or lightly cooked eggs. Until the problem has been licked, the rest of us are consuming eggs that have not been cooked to 165° at our own risk. Incidentally, eggs in cakes, cookies, and breads have been sufficiently cooked to be safe.
