Simple Eggs

Posted on 10. Oct, 2007 by Rob in All, Food, Life, Musings, Older

There is nothing quite as simple as scrambled eggs. Tons of protein and flavor packed into such a basic object. Cooking scrambled eggs is quick and easy. My biggest issue with this simplistic food is that so many people make it so very wrong. I would like to share the way I make eggs, my grandmother made eggs, and how I desperately wished restaurants made eggs.

1) Whisk eggs (whole eggs, not just whites) with milk (yes, the milk is required and don’t use skim because that’s just dirty water) until completely frothed and blended. Season with salt and pepper.

2) Melt butter or margarine in pan until hot. (If you try and use cooking spray, oil, or some other healthy alternative you are a gross bastardization of all the is good in life)

3) Add eggs to melted butter and stir frequently until fully cooked (they will remain a little wet because of the milk. This is a good thing)

4) Eat and don’t worry about the fat and cholesterol levels. There is an easy way to add this better flavored version of eggs to your diet without compromise. This amazing technique is called MODERATION. If your looking to watch a diet please do not eat these eggs 10 at a time or more than once a week or so. For god’s sake though use moderation and don’t serve healthed out cardboard eggs to others. It’s just wrong.
