Best Scrambled Eggs With Osetra And Mouillettes Recipes

SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk together eggs and cream; season with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat; add eggs. Using a rubber spatula, stir to create curds, pushing the eggs from the edge of the skillet towards the center. Cook until set, 3 to 4 minutes.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH OSETRA AND MOUILLETTES

Steps:

• Toast the bread. Butter all the slices with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Remove the crusts and cut each slice into 4 narrow strips, or mouillettes.
• When ready to serve, place the eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix with a whisk until well blended. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a thick, heavy saucepan with high sides. Add the egg mixture and cook over medium to high heat, stirring continuously and vigorously with a whisk until the mixture is creamy and consists of very small curds. While still quite soft, remove the mixture from the heat. (The eggs will continue to cook in the residual heat of the pan.) Add the sour cream and mix well.
• Divide the egg mixture among 4 warm plates. Arrange 4 mouillettes around each portion. Top with the caviar, using about 1 1/2 teaspoons per serving. Serve immediately.

PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

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.

SLOW-COOKED SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CAVIAR

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs in a bowl with the half-and-half, salt, and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saute or omelet pan. Add the eggs and cook them over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the desired doneness. Off the heat, add 1 more tablespoon of butter and stir until it's melted. Check for seasonings. Serve hot on a slice of toasted brioche with 1 teaspoon of caviar per person.

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.
