Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Wild Salmon
Preparation time: 5 minutes. Serves 4.

I first used this breakfast recipe on a special day at my restaurant. My customers
raved about it and the recipe became a regular feature on Sunday menus.

I am fortunate to live in Washington State (USA) because of the variety of quality
products available. This is an easy recipe but the "key" is using quality smoked
wild salmon. SeaBear is just a few minutes from my home. They have premium wild smoked salmon. But, then
again, everyone has access to the company's products online.


Note: Before starting this scrambled egg recipe, have all your other menu items ready to be served as you will
want to serve the scrambled eggs immediately. (Having everything ready is called “mise en place”)


Cooking Conversion Table


Ingredients:
1 tablespoon of butter and one of oil (vegetable or peanut oil)
6 eggs (organic if you have them)
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons milk
Ground white pepper or freshly ground (yes, it makes a difference) black pepper, to taste
4 tablespoons butter
4-6 ounces of SeaBear's wild smoked salmon, broken up by fanning out between your hands
2 tablespoons fresh chives or green onions, sliced


Instructions:
Heat the butter and oil combination over low heat in a 10 - 12 inch skillet
While the pan is heating, beat the eggs in a mixing bowl, until well blended but not frothy
Do not add salt, there may be enough in the smoked salmon
When fat is hot enough to sizzle a drop of water, then pour in the eggs
Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally as the eggs cook (do not over stir and do not allow the eggs to brown)
Add the wild smoked salmon just before the eggs have finished cooking
Remove the eggs from the heat when they are "set" but still soft and moist
Garnish with chives or green onions
Serve immediately


If you wish, you could add a piece of your favorite Norwegian Cheese on top as a delicious addition. You might
want to serve this scrambled egg recipe with an Orange Frappe' or a Midori Margarita! Or a glass of
Champagne!
