#PretendCookingShow: Cacio e Pepe Scrambled Eggs 🍳 Making a Pretend Cooking Show with the Contessa who inspired it was 🤯 meta for my brain. I always love meeting up with you, Ina. ♥️ Cacio e Pepe Eggs by @inagarten1083 Ingredients: - 12 extra large eggs - 1 cup whole milk - Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper - 4 Tbsp unsalted butter - ⅔ cup freshly grated pecorino cheese (plus extra for serving) - 4-5 slices toasted country bread Directions: 1. Whisk the eggs, milk, and 2 teaspoons of salt together in a medium bowl. 2. Put the butter in a cold large (12 inch) sauté pan and place it over medium/low heat. Allow the butter to melt almost completely, then add the egg mixture. 3. Cook over medium/low for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula. When the eggs start to make small clumps, stir them more rapidly, scraping the bottom of the pan, and cook for another 4-5 minutes. 4. When the eggs are almost cooked, turn off the heat and continue to stir the eggs rapidly until they’re soft and custardy. (When you pull the spatula through the eggs, they will still be soft but they will stay in place.) 5. Stir in the Pecorino and 2 teaspoons of pepper. 6. Spoon the eggs over toasted bread and serve hot sprinkled with extra Pecorino. 7. YUM. (original post date: 2/2/2024 via http://www.instagram.com/jennifer.garner)
