Preparing scrambled eggs seems incredibly simple, yet small mistakes can cause the dish to stick to the pan, losing its unique texture and flavor. The great advantage of this dish is certainly the quick preparation time and the ability to add various ingredients. Depending on your culinary preferences, you can add bacon, onion, or sun-dried tomatoes to your scrambled eggs.

However, it is the season for chanterelles, which also make an excellent addition to eggs. But how do you prepare scrambled eggs with mushrooms so that the taste is perfect? One mistake can cause your kitchen efforts to go to waste.

Preparing mushrooms for scrambled eggs can be a time-consuming process for many people. Chanterelles can be rinsed under running water and dried with a paper towel. However, there are a few other ways to clean them of sand and dirt. An interesting method is to place a pinch of salt in a large bowl and pour boiling water over it. Then, soak the chanterelles, and the dirt will come off independently.

Another method is to place the mushrooms in a strainer and pour boiling water over them. This removes not only the sand but also the bitter taste. It's worth doing this because otherwise, the scrambled eggs with chanterelles might not taste good.

Add 7 ounces of cleaned chanterelles, an onion, a tablespoon of butter, and seasonings to taste the eggs. After scalding the chanterelles with boiling water, chop them finely and sauté in butter. Add the chopped onion and fry together for about 10 minutes, until the water evaporates. Meanwhile, mix the eggs with salt and pepper in a bowl. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and fry until set. The finished dish can be sprinkled with chopped chives.

Add one ingredient to scrambled eggs

Scrambled eggs can become incredibly fluffy thanks to a simple, surprising trick. Add a few drops of lemon juice to the eggs. The acid will make the eggs exceptionally light and delicate, and the lemon flavor will remain imperceptible.

After adding the eggs to the heated pan, add a few drops of lemon juice and stir vigorously. This simple yet little-known trick slows down the setting of the eggs, allowing them to blend thoroughly. This method will ensure that the scrambled eggs will impress with their taste and texture.
