A little food lesson for you guys: Did you know that you can steam-scramble your eggs? It's a favorite method among foodies, and it can make eggs really light and fluffy--and you need zero butter (no pan to worry about sticking issues!). Here's how it's done...
Chef Jody Williams of the New York City restaurant Gottino makes a famous scrambled egg dish that's ... steamed! How wonderfully unusual is that?!
It's so simple that anyone can do it (anyone who has an espresso machine with a steamer wand, that is). Here's how, according to this helpful post over at FoodMayhem:
1. In a tall porcelain jar (preferably something with a handle), beat together eggs and a sprinkle of salt (note, you can add a little melted butter if you want--but this is totally optional).
2. Hold the jar underneath the steamer wand (milk steamer on an espresso machine) and let the wand dip into the egg mixture. Turn on the steamer and swirl about until the eggs are scrambled but soft and runny. There is a little residual cooking.
Serve with a little grated Parmesan or a spoonful of low-fat ricotta, and chives or green onions sprinkled on top. Voila!
Enjoy!
