    BA should lean more into these kind of videos again. I get people want personality/entertainment, but its been a while since I've really felt educated and/or inspired to cook something by their old stand-by shows. this guys got good vibes but the substance comes first and that's what i like about him (the success of the wine guy i think follows a similar path)

      It's somewhat more showmanship and the novelty factor now. I can't blame them, they no longer have the natural charm of the test kitchen with chefs interacting. But as someone still learning to scramble eggs, this hit the spot.

      I think it would have been much better if he put the cooked eggs into a strainer to let the water drain and salted the eggs and the water. Sounds to me that's the fix for his issues. I think this might be a great way to make a lot of eggs at once with no added fat.

      Its not that stupid, like he said the biggest issue here is that it can be watery and bland, but its healthy.
      And for the bland part you can allways add flavour when you wisk your eggs.
      Also its not a monstrosity, this way of cooking eggs exist, in asian dishes, they use eggs in a similar way, in soups or noodle, they wisk the eggs and then poor it in the soup, creating something like that, foils of egg

      Salting TOWARDS the end is the best way. While it's still somewhat runny, add the salt and pepper. The eggs doen't lose any color and the seasoning still gets evenly mixed in. Happy middle ground that I've found works the best.

    I've adapted about three of these versions into one for my perfect scramble- crack the eggs into a cold pan with butter, season, scramble in the pain over highish heat and lower, emulsify the butter in by stirring frequently until the end when you let some of the curds get bigger. I like my eggs a little on the wet side so I finish them quickly. Super quick way to do them, less dishes, easy and tasty.

    I have like 10 ways that I make scrambled eggs, depending on the application. I make scrambled eggs differently depending on if it’s going in a tortilla, or on a biscuit, vs as a solo side dish. One trick that I do that really kicks it up a bit, is make them with Alton’s high 2 lo style (my personal fav), but melt a small tbsp of butter in a side bowl, melt it, and baste the finished eggs with some melted butter. It really adds a new dimension to the eggs. Works best with omelette though.

  • @Charles0002
    @Charles0002 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've migrated to the same high heat strategy over the years. I like using a small pan and having it hot enough to make the eggs bubble trapping air in it. I throw a chunk of butter in, and once the pan is coated, but before all the butter melts, throw the eggs in. I don't really time it, but I probably only cook it a minute or less. Be sure you have a plate ready, it only takes a few seconds for the eggs to overcook if you aren't ready. My only issue, is that I like doing it with a minimum of three eggs, so I have enough depth to capture the air as it bubbles.
    Really enjoyed this video though and it matches my opinions on a lot of the egg recipes.

Kenji gives credit to a woman who discovered the cornstarch trick in his video, but the combination of corn starch slurry + butter in the eggs before cooking + water in pan while it preheats seems way too similar to Kenji's recipe to not credit him in some way.

    Cook in pan with a dash of olive oil and butter. Yum.
    The Persian way is to cook forst some diced green pepper and maybe a little chilli with some chopped tomatoes,þhen when sizzling add eggs. (I personally like to whisk the eggs first in a separate bowl as I'm not to keen on those floating whites..I like my eggs yellow and well-mixed). However this dish is usually served with sliced pickles (Gerkins) a few cucumber and sliced tomatoes and the famous Persian flat bread! This dish will keep you going all day!
    Love your recipes!

    My favorite: Butter, milk not necessary but 1-2 tbsp is good if you want it, medium heat until the eggs start to cook and then low-med heat until done to desired wetness, stirring constantly, salt after (because I like getting little pockets of salt, makes it exciting). Easy, quicker and more practical than low and slow for most people who don't have 15 minutes to cook eggs lol but pretty much the same result, just a bit quicker because you start with higher heat

    For the swirled/poached eggs, put the finished eggs in the strainer for a few seconds, and let the water drain out. I've a French recipe for scrambled eggs that requires 45 minutes. These don't seem too labour intensive compared to that one!

      At least 37 minutes of that must be sitting outside the chicken coop with your coffee waiting for the hens to lay some eggs.

      @@CalvinLimuel Oh, there is no double boiler for either. For the 45 min recipe, it's a simple cast iron skillet, eggs, butter, technique, and time. Lots. Of. Time. But they >are< some damn good scrambled eggs.

    Just tried the GR method. Best scrambled eggs I’ve ever had. One change: I use a pinch of truffle salt.

    This is great, thanks! I've been doing the low and slow method but with oil instead of butter and cream instead of milk. It's good! And if I want it in a sandwich I just don't fold it as much, everything else is the same

    I cook mine in butter at high heat the whole time, it makes brown butter and that nutty taste, really fluffy, brown bits and still a bit runny in the center of the large curds

  • @Demasx
    @Demasx 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I do Alton's method but with a wok, oil, and higher heat... you get lovely large curds that are fluffly and still just creamy in the center, no browned egg, but no wetness either... but best of all it all happens in seconds!

  • @wolfetom10
    @wolfetom10 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cooking scrambled eggs on high heat yields tough curds, so I used to do low and slow but switched to the high to low method years ago and never looked back. It's super-fast, and because you switch to low heat, or even off-heat before the eggs firm up, they don't get tough. I think with a little practice you get just as much control as you do with the low and slow method and similar results, but in under half the time. If I have it, I like to use a little cream instead of milk.

    I came into this expecting a lot of the ways I've seen in a lot of videos, like gordan's and alton's, but I didn't expect the deli style, which is how I love to do, to be in. That made me feel like I'm not ruining my eggs, because I love the creamyness with all the white marbling into the eggs. It's very comfy to me. :3c
