Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
6 large eggs (pasture-raised preferred)
3 tbsp (45g) grass-fed butter
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream or coconut milk
1/2 tsp (3g) sea salt
1/4 tsp (0.5g) black pepper
For Garnish:
2 tbsp (8g) fresh chives, chopped
Make it Good For The Gut (Optional)
Replace heavy cream with grass-fed kefir or cultured buttermilk for probiotics and tangy flavor. Add 1 tablespoon ghee instead of some butter for easier digestion and gut-healing properties. Include 1 teaspoon fresh herbs like parsley or dill for additional digestive support and nutrients.
Remix Options
Fat Alternatives: Use coconut oil, avocado oil, or ghee instead of butter for different flavors and cooking properties. Cream Substitutes: Try coconut cream, cashew cream, or Greek yogurt for varied richness and nutrition profiles. Herb Variations: Add fresh dill, tarragon, parsley, or basil for different aromatic profiles and flavors. Add-Ins: Fold in goat cheese, cream cheese, smoked salmon, or sautéed vegetables during final cooking stage. Spice Options: Include turmeric for color and anti-inflammatory benefits, or paprika and garlic powder for savory depth. Cooking Methods: Try French technique with constant stirring, or gentle oven method at 325F (163C) for ultra-creamy texture.
Good To Know
Low Heat Importance: Keep temperature low to prevent proteins from coagulating too quickly, which creates tough, rubbery texture instead of creamy curds. Egg Quality: Pasture-raised eggs provide richer flavor, better nutrition, and more vibrant color – worth the investment for superior results. Timing Technique: Remove from heat while eggs still look slightly wet – residual heat finishes cooking for perfect creamy consistency. Pan Selection: Non-stick or well-seasoned pan prevents sticking and allows for gentle stirring without breaking delicate egg curds. Butter Strategy: Add butter in stages – some for cooking fat, remainder stirred in at end for extra richness and glossy finish. Storage Tips: Best served immediately while warm and creamy – reheating often results in tough, overcooked texture. Serving Ideas: Perfect with toast, smoked salmon, avocado, or as filling for breakfast burritos and sandwiches.
steps
Whisk:
Crack eggs into medium bowl and whisk vigorously with heavy cream, sea salt, and black pepper until completely smooth and well combined.
Heat:
Place 2 tablespoons butter in non-stick or well-seasoned pan over low heat, allowing butter to melt slowly without browning.
Add:
Pour whisked egg mixture into warm pan and let sit for 20 seconds without stirring to begin gentle cooking process.
Stir:
Using rubber spatula, gently stir eggs by pushing from edges toward center, creating soft curds and allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath.
Continue:
Cook slowly over low heat, stirring gently every 20-30 seconds, allowing eggs to form creamy curds gradually without rushing the process.
Remove:
When eggs are almost set but still appear slightly wet and glossy, immediately remove pan from heat to prevent overcooking.
Finish:
Gently fold in remaining tablespoon of butter for extra richness, then garnish with fresh chopped chives and serve immediately while warm.
