Puffy Ramp Frittata Recipe
- 6 eggs, separated
- 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, tarragon, chives, or a mix
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 16 ramps, washed, whites sliced thinly, greens cut into 2-inch segments (see note)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Adjust rack to 8 inches below broiler element and preheat broiler to high. Combine egg yolks, 3 egg whites, and the herbs in large bowl and whisk until homoegnous and frothy. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a 10-inch non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until foaming subsides. Add ramps, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add to bowl with eggs and set aside. Wipe out skillet.
- Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Fold egg whites into beaten egg and ramp mixture. It's ok if it deflates significantly. Fold until a homogenous color is achieved. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat until foaming subsides, swirling the pan as the butter melts. Add egg mixture and cook, stirring with a rubber spatula and scraping the bottom and sides until partially set, about 30 seconds. Smooth top with spatula, then transfer to the broiler.
- Broil until lightly puffed and golden brown on top, about 4 minutes. Carefully loosen frittata with a thin metal spatula until it moves freely in the skillet. Invert onto a serving plate or cutting board.
- Slice frittata and serve immediately.
