You can cook eggs in the oven for a variety of reasons. They are great for breakfast, especially if you want to make them look fancy, but you may not have the time to boil them yourself. The following tips will help you make them look better while still being healthy and delicious. You can use this technique to make scrambled eggs. Just keep in mind that this method does take some time, so make sure you do it carefully.
To prepare baked eggs, you’ll need an oven-safe dish. Traditionally, eggs were baked in shirrers, which is the name of the container used to hold them. Modern oven-safe dishes, like shallow ramekins, make serving eggs easier. Make sure you cook the eggs until the yolk is translucent. Otherwise, it might be too runny, and you will end up with a mushy yolk.
In the oven, the main protein in eggs starts to cross-link. When the egg white reaches 180degF (82degC), it begins to look like gunk. As the egg white becomes rubbery, hydrogen sulfide begins to develop and creates the smell of rotten eggs. Then, it’s time to turn your eggs over and cook them for a few minutes longer. The higher the temperature, the faster the egg whites become firm.
When you have a busy morning, baking eggs in the oven is a convenient way to feed a large crowd and still get a nutritious breakfast. Eggs are an inexpensive source of protein and have plenty of important nutrients. The fat content in eggs helps you feel full for longer and increases the feeling of satiation. A single egg has about 75 calories, seven grams of protein and five grams of fat. It has no carbs or sugars, making it the perfect meal.
