Scrambled Eggs For A Crowd Food

CREAMY MAKE AHEAD SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• In a blender, add eggs, milk, and all the spices (salt, pepper, garlic, onion, mustard, seasoning salt, cayenne.) Make sure you have a big blender! Mine went over the 4 cup capacity at around 20 eggs and then I was too scared to add more so I just whisked them in. You could of course just skip blending and whisk them all in a bowl. Whatever sounds easier to you!
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in a 12 inch high-sided skillet over medium heat. When it is nice and hot, pour in the egg mixture. Lower the heat to medium-low. You have to cook eggs sloooow.
• Use a spatula to occasionally scrape the bottom of the pan. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are starting to set.
• Then add the cream cheese that has been cut into chunks. Carefully fold in the cream cheese and let it melt away into your dreamy creamy eggs.
• When the eggs have cooked (cooked meaning you're ok sneaking a bite) but are still quite wet, add the eggs to a crock pot and turn the crock pot to warm. (If there is no warm setting, the low setting will do.) Put the lid on.
• Stir the eggs every hour or so. You can keep them warm in the crock pot for about 4-5 hours. If you leave them in too long eventually they will become rubbery, so it's best to eat them within 4-5 hours.
• When serving, top with cheddar cheese and green onions.

• Whisk together all the ingredients in a large microwave-safe bowl.
• Microwage on high for 2 minutes Remove from the microwave and stir.

• Repeat the process until the eggs are set but still moist, about 8 minutes total.
• Serve hot.

OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

• Divide butter among four 13 x 9 inch baking dishes.
• Combine eggs and salt; mix well.

• Serve immediately.

BUFFET-STYLE FLUFFY OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (set oven rack to lowest position).
• Spray a 13 x 9-inch glass baking pan with cooking spray then pour the melted butter into the pan.
• In a bowl whisk eggs and salt until smooth and well blended.
• Gradually whisk in the half and half and milk; pour into the baking pan.
• Bake uncovered for 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven then stir the eggs; return to oven and bake another 15-20 minutes or until the eggs are just set (to insure soft fluffy eggs do not overbake as the eggs will cook more after removing from the oven).
• Serve immediately.

PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
• TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
• Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
• Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
• Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.

STIR-FRIED ITALIAN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• In large mixing bowl, whisk eggs and Italian seasoning.
• Heat wok to medium heat. Melt butter (I allow a lot of butter to ensure no sticking and to season the eggs).
• Pour in whisked eggs and gently stir-fry with a large spatula until cooked to desired doneness. (I like mine a little wet.) I recommend allowing people to add their own salt after serving because the butter and Italian seasoning add plenty of taste for me.

LOADED SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Break eggs into a bowl. Add milk and beat well with a fork.
• Melt butter in large skillet (I prefer a cast iron chicken fryer).
• Cut onion in half lengthwise then slice the halves lengthwise into slivers. The slices hold their shape and texture better this way than when sliced crosswise. Saute in melted butter until nearly cooked and slightly browned.
• Add the meat and vegetables to the pan and saute briefly with the onions until thoroughly hot.
• Pour the eggs over the meat and vegetable mix. Cook on low-medium heat until about half done.
• Spread half the cheese over the eggs them scramble them around.
• Cook until nearly done. Add the rest of the cheese and scramble around again.
• Complete the cooking, scrambling again if necessary.
• Serve with your favorite bread, with homemade biscuits, with hash browns, or load into rolls or wraps.

OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour melted butter into a glass 9x13 inch baking dish. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and salt until well blended. Gradually whisk in milk. Pour egg mixture into the baking dish.
• Bake uncovered for 10 minutes, then stir, and bake an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until eggs are set. Serve immediately.
