I always make my scrambled eggs with the English method, but closer in texture to the French. Off and on the fire, butter, very little salt, adding a bit of cooking cream and cheese towards the end, so they end up quite runny, but with a fab delicious texture and flavour if I may say so myself. If I make them later in the day, I may add a bit of finely chopped chives as well, just to give the eggs an extra dimension. So from my POV, I make the perfect scambled eggs, which may not be further from the truth. 😅

Heard somewhere that if your eggs look "done" in the pan then they will be over cooked on the plate. Guess that would be the point of the cream. Personally, American style eggs. Cast iron pan super hot, egg beaten before going in the pan. A little bit of butter in the pan, then egg. And about 30 seconds later (because the pan is so hot) egg is on the plate. The child likes how quickly they get food! 😂❤

Well I've been using the words 'restaurant-style' since the early 00's. I saw how someone made 'restaurant-style' scrambled eggs, at some public place downtown. They were using two metal rectangular spatulas and folding the eggs around - that's how they got the restaurant-style scrambled eggs. Tried folding eggs around at home and ended up with the same results.

This is one of Jamie's better videos in my opinion, one I saw years ago. I tried each of his methods, and enjoyed the different results. As I grew up in the USA, I have always cooked my eggs American style, and mostly still do. I like to make them wetter some times, and dryer other times. It depends on how and with what I am serving them. I really like the creaminess of the French style, but rarely want to take the time to prepare them that way, not when I can go from pan to plate in 30 seconds in a hot cast iron pan. I am about 50/50 on whether I add milk or cream to the eggs, but I have never heard of adding such after cooking the eggs. I have always added them to the uncooked eggs.

I haven’t seen Gordon Ramseys method, but my favorite way is also to scramble in the pan, I like to gently scramble the whites until they’re almost cooked while leaving the yolks whole until the last minute, then quickly blend the yolks into the whites and turn it out as quickly as possible. This maintains the flavor of the soft-cooked yolk and is super moist and tender.

That's interesting... What you say about adding the cream at the end makes sense, but this is the first time I've ever heard that. I grew up being taught that the milk or cream goes in in the initial scrambling stage before it even hits the pan so in regards to how I was taught vs what I've learned myself through trial and error, Jamie is actually correct, you don't need to put in milk or cream to get the same or close enough to the same results. And the milk in during scramble method was even taught to me in high school foods class not just my parents so I think it's more common than you're giving Jamie credit for.

If you're gonna use the "pull" method when cooking "American style" scramble eggs, you need to tilt your pan to get the uncooked/runny egg to have contact with the pan (kinda like if you were prepping to make an omelette) . That way the it will cook more evenly. I don't know anyone in America that does that personally, but it's still good advice. Also, I use a carbon steel pan when I cook my eggs.

As for US diner-style scrambled eggs, butter is not used and they are cooked hard on a hot cooktop, just as Chef James says. Moisture would be a no-no. The eggs are hard and dry. It goes with the crazy crunchy bacon. And thanks for the cream tip when making eggs for a group.

Scrambled eggs is one of the few things I'm always confident about making. I always add a good bit of cheese, and it usually turns out pretty good. No need for ketchup, but a little hot sauce is always welcome.

The way I make mine is I don't whisk them beforehand. I do it in the pan, after the egg whites already cooked a bit, so they remain a bit separated from the yolks. Somebody told me that's called marbled eggs, but I don't know. But a lot of people do it that way here in Poland. I don't add creme to mine. If I'm only making a small amount for myself and I keep the heat low instead of rushing it, they turn out perfect and creamy and don't overcook, so I see no need to forcibly stop the cooking.

how to make the finest scrambled eggs. especially good for cold cuts / smoked eel / fish sandwich work 40 minutes (30 minutes in the oven) 6 eggs 2 deciliters of milk - or cream 0.5 teaspoon of salt pepper - white to avoid black dots butter or oil for brushing 1. Turn on the oven at 175 degrees conventional top and bottom heat. 2. Grease a mold with oil or melted butter. It can, for example, be a pâté form with space for approx. 6 deciliters. 3. Beat 6 eggs, 2 deciliters of cream / milk, 0.5 teaspoon of salt and white pepper well together. 4. Strain it into the mold and cover it with tin foil. Poke holes in the tinfoil. 5. Place the mold in a dish of water so that your eggs are baked in a water bath. Bake it on the middle rack in the oven for half an hour. 6. Let it cool after it comes out of the oven and put it in the fridge until it needs to be sliced and served.

Did you know you can do the same thing with a microwave? I do it all the time and people still can't figure out how I manage. It's easy. 1 30 second burst to make the initial egg form, chop it up with a forks and stir it in, add cheese or cream, then short 5 second bursts and a stir until you almost get your desired texture. Take them out and plate them. They will finish cooking as they are plated, so stopping right before your desired texture is important. If you want to add pepper, garlic, bacon, sausage, etc. then put it in with the cream or cheese. Times will be longer the more eggs you are using.

My current go to method is a mix the American style and some Cantonese egg dish style. Whisk your eggs. Add splash of milk to cornstarch to make a little slurry. Mix that in with the eggs. Into the pan. Once a part of the egg is cooked scoop it up and stack it onto another part. Tilt the pan to fill the space with uncooked egg. Repeat until you have a stack of eggs on one side of the pan and the eggs no longer run freely enough to fill the space. It'll be pretty moist, but the corn starch thickens it up enough that the texture feels pleasant instead of undercooked, lol

i usually preheat my pan to max, turn off the heat, put in the whisked eggs, let the bottom catch some color and scramble afterwards.

I sorta do the English way, but I do it low and slow and work the eggs more aswell as adding butter, cream,white pepper and salt. It ends up more like a combination of the English and French way.

TBF to Jamie, this video was about cooking eggs, not necessarily making the best, most tasty eggs ever (YEEEAHA!). So he did a good job explaining the differences in the style.

The shape of a traditional chef hat was based on the number of ways to cook eggs, and eggs are the go to test many chefs use for new cooks to see if they are worth hiring.

It's nice to hear stories about James' family and growing up. The picture of his dad was cool. Did you, James, ever have long hair? My older son would let his grow till the middle of his back. His brother wou 5:31 ld have his cut as soon as it would start getting curls, very short hairstyle. I love Gino! The interaction and the giggles with the other two were priceless.

I've attempted Gordon's style eggs at least once but it's not a fast process, which is why I usually opt for the "faster" (US) way. Though, the point about adding the cream last sounds like a good point and I should try it.

I have other responses I've typed up but I specifically want to post this first: When you're not well practiced at juggling toss *toward* the center not *from* the center. Waterfall instead of fountain. Tossing toward the center tends to reduce errors, tossing from the center amplifies errors.

At the end of the day, if you've got butter, salt, great quality eggs (we're lucky enough to own chickens, but if you don't, it's not hard to find someone who does), and you don't overcook them, all 3 methods are superb!

Jamie's technique is good here. There's no need for cream or milk if you have the heat and timing right. The eggs can be creamy without actually adding cream. Milk can add a little bit more body to it, make it appear larger quantity but flavour and texture would be compromised, and importantly colour lol.

As an American, most of my peers find it odd that I use cast iron for cooking. Granted I use it almost exclusively for stovetop cooking, I don't own any "non-stick" cookware. But yeah, I'd say that method is pretty close to the one I use at home. When I cooked in restaurants yeah, we just cracked a couple of eggs into a skillet and cooked them off as fast as we could and called them done.

I'll do the English way mostly but rather than add cream or milk at the end I just take the eggs off the heat a little earlier and continue to stir for short while. Also a good time to add some cheese if you are up for it.

A good video from Jamie! He covers the basic differences of the 3 styles really well. Good critique from James (not excessively bashing ol Jamie for the hell of it). Re scrambled egg styles, I typically pick one of English (Jamie style), English (Gordon style) or US. I must try French some time...

I still don't know why polish or Eastern European scrambled eggs are not better known. Here are the main differences: - You start with frying some diced onions and meat. Preferably some polish sausage or bacon (In some variations also mushrooms) - Take less salt since the meat is already salty - NO stiring. Even in the pan you first start stiring when the eggwhite begins to solidify. - No cream or milk. I'm with Jamie on this one. - Season with Pepper. Greens for decoration are optional. - Be carefull not to overcook the egg. The endproduct should be a heterogenic mixture of whites and slightly runny yolk. - And lastly enjoy with some fresh bread :)

I read a story from a sous chef regarding scrambled eggs. He was taught to use a bain-marie and to stir them continuously - with a cocktail stick! I tried it once. Never again. Lots of butter for me and "flakes" of egg.

long ago before toasters were widespread, people used to broil toast under the broiler. So a joke from that era, a boy was asked by his teacher, "How do you make toast?" and the boy said, "First you burn it on one side, then you burn it on the other side, then you scrape it!"

I like Jamie's American scrambled eggs. Didn't realize he makes these much like i do - large curds, served still moist, using the spatula to shape the eggs. No rush. The few times i add milk or sour cream, this is mixed in at the beginning. It would be very little. One only needs to realize when to take the skillet off the heat to keep them moist! As even here in America, American style can be hit or miss at diners (they should never be cooked as quickly as James states!) i tend to reserve them for cooking in my own kitchen. It's those large curds i crave! No desire to dry them out, either. (Occasionally, near the end, i add in some home-shredded meltable cheese I don't want that to go homogeneous into the eggs). Agreed with James, don't burn any toast should you use that. I personally prefer toasted English muffins. PS: i won't eat the French style, so i don't care to learn how to make them.

Credit to Jamie that he can cook his eggs in a regular stainless steel pan. Gordon has been doing his scrambled in non-stick since long before he was sponsored by the polygonal-clad brand that shall not be named.

Thank you James for this video :-) Love the way you analyse and share different techniques in all your videos. Being an asian living in France over 17 years, and having seen multiple prochef reacts on Jamie Huile d'Olives... I feel he is MADE for CRITICS, on the fact that he doesn't not respect neither the culture nor the research that a professional chef should do before he define or "create" a version of his own of any stuffs......

You may disagree with not adding milk and/or cream at the end but the English method adds these at the beginning, along with the salt and pepper, and that is what he was cooking.

I rarely get someone who wants his American version, they like it well and surprisingly dry, when they want more ramsay style, I actually don't use cream but cold butter just before finishing, his American version I use for buffet cause it'll keep cooking and be closer to what they like lol
