Ovos Mexidos offers a simple yet satisfying flavor profile, centered on the richness of eggs and cream, balanced by subtle seasonings.
The dominant flavor comes from the eggs themselves, providing a creamy and slightly savory base. The addition of cream (creme de leite) enhances the richness and adds a velvety texture. Salt and pepper provide fundamental seasoning, while 'tempero verde' (usually a mix of finely chopped parsley and chives) introduces fresh, herbaceous notes. Butter contributes to the overall richness and helps prevent the eggs from sticking. The sourdough bread (pão de fermentação natural) provides a tangy and robust counterpoint to the creamy eggs.
Función Premium
Low and Slow
Cook the eggs over low heat, stirring frequently, to prevent them from becoming dry and rubbery. This slow cooking process ensures a creamy, even texture.
Don't Overcook
Remove the eggs from the heat just before they reach your desired consistency. They will continue to cook from the residual heat, so it's better to err on the side of undercooked than overcooked.
Bread Matters
The sourdough bread adds an important textural and flavor contrast. Toast it lightly to enhance its flavor and provide a sturdy base for the creamy eggs.
Cream Temperature
Add the cream when the eggs are almost ready to be removed from heat, this is important to ensure creaminess and avoid the eggs being too watery.
