scrambled Eggs

Leave a comment

I’m thinking I should rename this blog from flavor attack to “Jim steals recipes from bon appetit that he likes.” This is more of a review. Their basic method is to use 4 eggs and salt, and beat them senselessly until it’s totally uniform and homogenous. The different versions use various cheeses. I went with the hot cheese version.

First time I made this it disappeared, and I had to make more.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt (more for topping at the end)
  • 1 TB unsalted butter
  • 2 TB fresh grated sharp cheddar
  • Fresh parsley (chopped)
  • Hot Sauce (I like Frank’s)
  • Ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Crack eggs into bowl, add salt, and blend thoroughly with an immersion blender.
  2. Melt butter in skillet (low to medium heat). Set timer for 2 minutes. Add eggs and using rubber spatula make circle around edges and across the bottom. After 1 minute, add cheddar. Mix in well until melted. Eggs should be done in about 2 minutes.
  3. Top with more kosher salt, fresh parsley, black pepper and hot sauce.

Quiche Lorrain

Leave a comment

I don’t know who Lorrain is, but she makes a great quiche. I wasn’t a fan of quiche, until I tried this recipe. The recommendation is to use a pre-made crust. Marie Callender’s is pretty good.

Once you lay the pie crust out, the first step is to add some shredded cheddar and swiss cheeses.

 

Add a layer of cooked bacon  and steamed broccoli.

Whisk together some eggs, whipping cream, and seasoning, and pour over the ingredients.

Bake at 375 for 40-45 minutes.
