A chef has revealed what they claim to be the secret to cooking the ultimate scrambled eggs. The recipe, perfect for anyone looking to shake up their breakfast or brunch routine, was shared on TikTok by user @thisiscrumb, an account featuring tips from chef and author Devin Connell. She explained: "How to make the best scrambled eggs.
Heat one [tablespoon] olive oil in a non-stick pan." The twist comes in the next move, with the expert continuing: "Let the whites set for 30 seconds or so. Use a spatula to start scrambling the egg whites, leaving the yolks intact.
"When the whites are cooked, break the yolks and stir into the whites. Remove from the heat before the yolks have completely cooled." Foodies were divided by her unconventional technique, reports the Express .
In the comments section, one said: "I love them scrambled in the pan this way glad I'm not alone!!" while another added: "This looks so good omg why haven't I thought of this." Others couldn't get on board, with one commenting: "No," and another critic writing: "This is wrong." There are numerous scrambled egg cooking hacks out there, with many chefs offering their own spins on the classic breakfast dish.
Gordon Ramsay, for instance, cooks his eggs over a medium heat, removing the pan from the heat as soon as the curds start to thicken. He then lets the eggs continue to cook off the heat source for about 20 seconds before returning the pan to a medium heat for an additional 90 seconds. The renowned chef also suggests cracking eggs directly into the pan, stirring continuously and adding a spoonful of something cold like butter or sour cream to prevent the eggs from overcooking and to make them extra creamy.
