Method

6 steps · 15 minutes

  1. Break the eggs straight into the cold pan with the butter. Do not beat them in a bowl first and do not preheat anything.
  2. The lowest heat the stovetop will hold, and a spatula moving the whole time.
  3. It will look like nothing is happening for four or five minutes. That is correct and it is where people give up.
  4. As it starts to thicken, lift the pan off the heat every twenty seconds and keep stirring. This is how the curd stays small.
  5. Take it off while it is still looser than it should be. It sets on the plate in the time it takes to carry it.
  6. Creme fraiche in off the heat to stop the cooking, then salt and the chives. Salted early, eggs go watery.
