Baguette with Chevre Scrambled Eggs and Chives
- 2 4-inch fresh baguettes
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 tbsp butter (plus more for buttering the bread)
- 2 tbsp crumbled chevre (goat cheese)
- 1 1/2 tbsp finely minced fresh chives
- 1 dash salt
- 1 dash pepper
- Slice each of the baguettes in half.
- Lightly toast and butter the baguettes and set aside.
- Whisk the eggs together in a small bowl with several pinches each of salt and pepper.
- Pour the eggs into a small nonstick frying pan that has not been heated yet.
- Add the butter in small chunks to the pan with the eggs and turn the heat to medium-low.
- Cook, stirring constantly in small, quick circles with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- At first as the eggs warmup and the butter slowly melts, it may not seem like your eggs are cooking at all.
- It may even seem like they're getting more liquid.
- This is fine.
- It means they're heating evenly so that they aren't sticking and cooking over-quickly on the bottom of the pan anywhere.
- Keep stirring!
- Eventually, you'll see very small opaque clumps forming.
- Keep on stirring!
- The eggs will thicken and become opaque all over and your spoon will start to leave a trail.
- As soon as the eggs look just a little bit less cooked than you would prefer (they should still be on the wet side) remove the pan from the heat.
- Off the heat, stir the chevre and chives into the eggs.
- Taste and adjust the salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the eggs between the baguettes and serve.
