that looks good but too much work.

[Anonymous No.5618672]

Put a pan on the stove at high heat.
Whisk three eggs, then add copious amounts of salt, pepper, and oregano; then whisk again.
Butter the pan. Ideally the butter should turn brown upon contact. Pick up the pan and tilt it to get the inside entirely coated with butter.
Pour the eggs into the pan. If the temperature is right, they should hiss and bubble upon contact. (Many refer to this as the eggs "screaming".)
Using a fork move the eggs around periodically.
When the eggs are more brown than yellow, you will know they are ready to eat.
Serve on a plate with black coffee and burnt ham.

does salt before heat realy matter?
on and off the heat?

[Anonymous No.5618768]

>>5618761
The on/off heat thing is a pretty standard method to stop the eggs becoming overcooked. I dont really know the science behind the salt thing, but im fairly to follow Ramsays suggestion since i dont know any better

[Anonymous No.5618771]

Until firm and slightly brown. Runny/creamy eggs are pig disgusting. Top with tabasco or sriracha.
>there are people so uncultured that they eat runny/creamy eggs without tabasco or sriracha

stir them til your arm falls off

I find that there is nothing more disgusting than unfertilized eggs, frankly it ruins my appetite.

I suggest you fertilize those eggs before scrambling them. They have much better texture and they hold up to the rigours of Ramsey's 'stir till you die' method.

I ate a lot of boiled hotdogs as a kid.

The problem with trying to make classical dishes these days is all the good cooks need you to be a master chef with a fortune's worth of equipment to even attempt to follow their instructions even though when the classical stuff was originally being made it was being made by uneducated women.

ignore the toast part and the tomatoes & mushrooms part. just do the eggs. use a saucepan, it's quicker, and you REALLY don't need creme fraiche for good eggs.

i do it this way but over spincach and diced garlic sauteed in olive oil, with added parmesan, salt and black pepper. so fucking good.

Salt breaks down protein. Eggs are pretty much protein. The end.

lol

[Anonymous No.5620646]

>>5620617
no shit thats what he said im just wondering if in the 3 minutes it takes to season and cook eggs that the salt actually does that. your not brining the egg for 48 hours.
>im leaning towards that being broscience until someone proves it wrong

http://www.seriouseats.com/2014/04/does-pre-salting-eggs-make-them-tough.html

>Still, it seemed strange that my tests indicated that, if anything, salt can improve the texture of the eggs, which is the exact opposite of what we might expect from an ingredient that promotes coagulation. I turned back to McGee for an explanation. According to him, the reason that the salt doesn't toughen the eggs is that, while acting as a catalyst to make proteins bond at lower temperatures, it simultaneously functions as a buffer, preventing the proteins from getting too close to each other and reducing the risk of water being squeezed out.

still sounds brosciencey but hey more convincing to me anyway

why not try it out yourself?
to me it makes literally no difference, it's all in the cooking of the eggs
