How to properly add butter while baking
Once you start baking the eggs, she advises adding to the eggs gradually cubes of butter. As the butter melts, it begins to foam, which helps cook the egg whites and yolks. This foamy texture contributes to the even distribution of heat and improves the final appearance of the eggs. At the same time, the butter adds the rich and full flavor that is characteristic of superbly prepared eggs.
The technique also involves moving the pan slightly to spread the butter evenly over the surface of the eggs. This allows the edges to brown nicely while the inside remains soft and creamy. This simple yet effective method creates just the right combination of crunchy and soft textures that will delight any foodie.
The importance of slow cooking
One of the key things he points out is temperature control. Although many people prepare fried eggs at a high temperature, he advises slow cooking at a medium or low temperature. This prevents the butter from browning or burning too quickly, ruining the flavor of the dish. By slow cooking, you will achieve the ideal browning of the edges, without the eggs losing their delicate structure.
In addition to the temperature, it is also important to gently sprinkle the eggs with salt, pepper and, if desired, also with other spices such as chili or spring onion. This not only adds flavor but also enriches the appearance of the dish.
