The Perfect Egg Sandwich, According to Alvin Cailan | Food Skills

  • Опубліковано 7 січ 2018
  • Egg sandwiches are available at every bodega, cornerstone, and fast-food joint. But at Eggslut, chef Alvin Cailan is turning the everyday breakfast sandwich into a work of art. A cult favorite in L.A., and now available at Chefs Club Counter in NYC, Eggslut’s secret is patience. Eggs and butter are added to a cold pan, and gently stirred on low heat. The result is something soft, smooth, and covered in melted cheese and sriracha mayo. Eggslut’s Fairfax is a must-try for any egg-sandwich enthusiast.

    I'm not a huge fan of eggs, but I must admit, I wanna try that sandwich so badly. Anytime you see the care and effort that is put into a dish and the end result, it sparks curiosity.

  • @dakkefernet8585

    I want an equal amount of eggs and butter in each sandwich.
    Alvin: You know how long thats gonna take?
    AN EQUAL AMOUNT OF EGGS AND BUTTER. IN EACH SANDWICH.

    For people that think soft eggs are disgusting, just try making it at home you’ll love it. I was sceptical at first but I gave it a try and I only make scrambled eggs like this now.

    • @chadgrov
      @chadgrov 6 років тому +2

      Harry li I make my eggs almost exactly like this but I do prefer them a bit more well done, not a huge fan of the somewhat slimey texture when they're just at the point of being fully cooked.

    • @jnichols959
      @jnichols959 6 років тому +1

      yeah, i'll pass on the slime. if you cooked it you knew it came from literal slime, and i for one can't eat eggs that are still slimey.

    • @sabahbubbler
      @sabahbubbler 5 років тому +3

      @@colina1330 to me I like it better without creme fraiche. There is a small bit of cream taste on cream fraiche and it's mainly used to cool down cooking process. I like Alvin's method using steel tray. I take it further by putting the tray in the freezer so when i put eggs onto the cold tray, it stops the cooking process
