The White Hat Guide to Scrambled eggs

The White Hat Basic Scrambled Eggs Recipe

In a bowl:

  • Crack a number of eggs (approximately 2 per person)

  • Add some cream (about a teaspoon per egg) and season with fleshly ground salt and pepper

  • Whisk lightly with a fork - the whites and yolks don't have to be completely mixed and the mixture should contain some air - overwhisking expels the air and makes for a heavier scrambled eggs.

In a heavy bottom pan over medium heat:

  • Melt some butter

  • When butter is just melted, add the egg mixture

  • As it begins to thicken keep scraping the thicker bits towards the centre of the pan

  • When the eggs are close to set but still a little runny, remove from heat and continue mixing. The heat of the pan will complete the cooking

Serve immediately - scrambled eggs become tough and dry if you attempt to keep them warm. If you don't believe me, try the scrambled eggs from a fast food franchise. Garnish with a little chopped chives or other fresh green herbs.

That is the White Hat Basic Scrambled Egg Recipe - we never use it.

The White Hat Non-Basic Scrambled Eggs Recipe

Variations:

  • try adding a little Tabasco sauce to the egg mixture

  • try serving as a topping to smoked salmon
