Scrambled egg

There are many ways to make scrambled eggs, and each culture has its own version of this dish. The history of scrambled eggs recipes is a long and interesting one, full of different techniques and ingredients.

The first recorded recipe for scrambled eggs comes from a medieval cookbook from the 13th century. This recipe calls for the eggs to be beaten with milk and butter, then cooked in a pan over a low heat. The eggs were then served with a sauce made from vinegar, onions, and spices.

Over the centuries, different cultures have added their own twist to this classic dish. In France, for example, scrambled eggs are often made with cream and served with a side of ham or bacon. In Spain, chorizo is often added to the mix. And in the United States, cheese is a popular addition.
