So, which came first the chicken or the egg? Really, do you think I know that answer? Well, I think I do, then I change my mind.
I didn’t really even care for scrambled eggs until recently. The smell of them would make me go and hide until the air had cleared in the kitchen. The only scrambled eggs that I liked, were my Mom’s. She did something to them and just couldn’t tell us what she did different. Then my hubby and I studied her, more like gawked at her.
Want to know her secret, to her fluffy and light eggs?
Here it is…
She doesn’t beat them beforehand in a separate bowl. She scrambles them in the HOT skillet. How easy is that? (Not to mention, her eggs are fresh from her chicken coop. But, you can have the same effect using the store bought ones.)
Plus, there is not that certain smell that comes with eggs being scrambled. I can’t explain it. However, I now can stay in the kitchen when my hubs is making eggs.
On my eggs, I add one other ingredient…which my mother started me out early on…
(Plus, my kids don’t know that it is my weakness and I don’t want their tongue any where close to my spices in case it might be hereditary.)
I scramble in a hot pan and add milk while scrambling!!! Cheese at the end!
I tend to scramble mine in the pan, too, as they cook…even though it makes my chef-aunt CRAZY. And I will add about 100 tablespoons of Old Bay seasoning. I don’t know what it is about Old Bay…just makes everything taste like the beach.
I have never tried this. Definitely going to have to try it.
I’m going to have to try that! Thanks for the great tip!
So that’s the secret, heh? 🙂 Thanks for sharing it! It’s also nice to know my husband and kids aren’t the only ones who like seasoned salt on their eggs. I thought it odd when I met my husband. Maybe I’m the odd one. lol!
