What's up FoodTubers! Mister Oliver here!
-
Today we are cooking scrambled eggs,
in three different ways.
-
The English, the French and the American way.
-
Scrambled eggs, so delicious!
-
The egg is the most delicious
and cheap form of protein.
-
They have loads of micro nutrients.
-
They are quick to cook.
-
English scrambled eggs.
-
We go onto a medium heat.
-
I am using two eggs per person.
-
I make this for two.
-
Whiks up those eggs.
-
One request: I hate battery eggs.
Minimum for me are barn eggs.
-
Or better: free range eggs.
-
Let's do it.
-
Start with a knob of butter.
-
With a little salt.
-
In we go.
-
To move the eggs around I use a spatula,
like this.
-
I am going to move it around.
-
Very quickly it is setting.
-
You can see those little cooked curds
and the raw egg.
-
I leave it.
-
Every five seconds, I'll give it a
little move around.
-
Some people put milk in,
some people put cream in.
-
If you cook it right, you don't need that.
-
This is cooked.
-
The pan is still warm.
-
And it is continuing to cook.
-
I put it to one corner of the pan.
-
So it is not going to overcook.
-
I get my toast.
-
You can put butter on your toast.
-
But we have a nice knob of butter already on the scrambled eggs.
-
On we go with our English style scrambled eggs.
-
You can see it's medium curds.
-
Beautiful!
-
It is still soft in texture.
-
English eggs done.
-
Soft, gorgeous, delicate.
-
Next, French style.
-
Bonjour, je m'appelle Jamie. J'aime le oeuf.
Oeuf? Ouf? Ouve?
-
Anyway, French style eggs.
-
You season four free-range eggs.
-
Whip it up.
-
We have got an inch of boiling water.
-
We are cooking it au bain-marie,
a water bath.
-
Eggs cook at a very low temperature.
-
It takes a while.
-
Okay, curds beginning to form, here and here.
-
Now it is time to put a few knobs of butter in.
-
I am going from a whisk.
I am going to use a spatula.
-
You start to see a more delicate curd.
-
We're in a good place.
-
On we go.
-
Very different to the English.
-
When you eat it...
-
It is very fine.
-
French style eggs. They are delicious.
-
Finally, FoodTubers, the American style eggs.
-
We start off the same.
-
Put a little salt into our four eggs.
-
We are using a frying pan.
-
A knob of butter.
-
Let it bubbling away.
-
In with the eggs.
-
It starts to set.
-
As it sets, I'm bringing in these sheets.
-
You get this folded gorgeous eggs.
-
See these beautiful sheet.
-
Just as the French and the English:
it must cook gently.
-
There is something delicate about this.
-
You can see the shiny parts where it's just cooking.
-
And the cooked parts.
-
Look at that.
-
Scrambled, American style eggs.
So tasty.
-
The French, English and American all have the same.
-
Eggs, pinch of salt and butter.
-
But the method to cook has changed the texture and the taste.
-
The English, the French and the American,
are just the tip of the iceberg.
-
There are hundreds of countries.
-
How do you cook your eggs?
-
Let us know.
-
That's what Food Tube is about.
Bye!
