Central Florida, and Miami Never know what will pop into your head when contemplating breakfast. This morning, that idea was shirred eggs. It has been ages since I made these. grease a ramekin with butter. Pour in some heavy cream. Break two XL eggs into that, and very slightly break the yolks. Add some salt, pepper, fine diced fresh scallions and Parsley. Bake at 375F for about 12 min. Longer if you like the yolks set. Top with some grated Cheddar, or other cheese. My wife likes Parmesan. Better than the sum of the parts. Custardy, creamy, absolutely delicious. Sam......

Central Florida, and Miami Mannlicher OP Campfire Kahuna OP Mannlicher Campfire Kahuna Joined: Nov 2003 Posts: 67,689 N. Central Florida, and Miami my wife pointed out that I needed to clarify the instructions just a bit. For a 6 ounce ramekin, about a tablespoon of heavy cream is all that is needed. Do not mix the eggs up. I break the yolk with the tines of a fork, just so they won't burst out of their containment. I don't scramble those into the whites at all. Wife likes her shirred eggs cooked only about 10 min. They are fairly loose at that point, the yolks still about half runny. Sam......

We do them a little different, but basically the same, if that makes sense. We call them nest eggs. We use a large muffin tray, very lightly greased, & place a slice (not shaved) of black forest ham into each hole of the muffin tray. Everything else the same. Whoops, we use one XL egg in each. After cooked, lift out of tray & place each parcel unto half of a toasted English muffin & devour. Paul. "Kids who grow up hunting, fishing & trapping, do not mug little old Ladies"

I had to cook a tad longer than the 12 min as the oven runs a little cool. Green onion, parm, two eggs, salt, pepper, and about a tablespoon of whole milk (I think cream would have made it richer but it was still very creamy). Quite delicious and I served it with toast and huckleberry jam. The green onion really made the dish imho, as it added a nice flavor to the eggs.

Put them in for 11 min, removed from oven and could see the middle was barely set. Gave them another 2 min. With immense anticipation, i stuck a stick of toast (i like to toast, spread and then cut into sticks, what i do for soft boiled eggs) into the center. Quite of bit of clear runniness. Ate it anyway, however, i noticed at the bottom of the ramekin the egg was extremely hot. Mixed it around a little and all quickly cooked itself, a phenomenon that shall be further explored tomorrow AM. Evidently, there is a technique to eating this.

I lightly grease a six-portion muffin tin, then break 4 eggs into a large measuring cup, dump in a little half-and-half and s couple of shots of Worchestershire, shake in a little salt and pepper, and beat past the stage where there is a danger of white snot lingering. I pour some into each space in the tin, then add whatever I please: green onion, green pepper, black olive, tomato, cheese, pepperoni, etc.. Then I pour in the rest of the egg mix.

Still good!!! The Canadian Bacon rocks!!! My next experiment is on top of squash cakes with hollandaise. For this version the yolks go back in. Proud to be a true Sandlapper!! Go Nats!!!!

Those are great looking pieces of pottery. The red ribbon a special order dish? You do anything else in them? Sean

The lids screw on and you have to match the right lid with the right pot or they won't fit. I don't recall that we've ever used them for anything else. The red ribbon was pepper-less (how anyone can dislike pepper is beyond me).

Custard or flan seems like a good idea. If you google "egg coddlers," most seem to have metal tops versus the ceramic tops that we have. I imagine that makes threading the tops/bottoms easier. I'm digging the shirred eggs for a heartier everyday breakfast. This forum has really pumped up our meals the last year or two.

I don't know that there is such thing as a satisfying healthy breakfast. No other meal so calls for butter, fried pork, eggs, biscuits, cheese.... Last edited by Ella; 12/31/16. Reason: fixed
