I love cutting up the long green hot peppers and one (or two) orange Hab that I get at the local supermarket, lighting cooking them in melted butter, then throwing in scrambled eggs and making a hot omelet. Anyone else like doing that??
That's what I do! DUDE!!!Txclosetgrower said:I sautee some onion, garlic & hot peppers in olive oil, then throw the eggs in and keep scrambling. Swear, with extra virgin olive oil > butter. MMMm
MrArboc said:You fry in olive oil? Don't you find the taste... horrible... after it has been heated up, or do you fry @ low temperatures?
Hotpeppa said:i second that...
you should nt really fry in olive oil...
it takes any benefits out of using olive oil.
peter pepper said:i sometimes go with some giardiniera (already has oil), onions, and green peppers.
Giardiniera is an Italian or Italian-American relish of pickled vegetables in vinegar or oil.
Common vegetables in the Italian version, also called sotto aceti, include onions, celery, zucchini, carrots and cauliflower, pickled vegetables in red- or white-wine vinegar. It is typically eaten as an antipasto, or with salads.
However, in Chicago, giardiniera is a condiment, typically used as a topping on Italian beef sandwiches. It's commonly made with sport peppers and some combination of other assorted vegetables, such as bell peppers, olives, celery, pimentos, carrots and cauliflower and sometimes crushed red pepper flakes, all marinated in vegetable oil, olive oil, soybean oil or any combination of the three oils.

millworkman said:Same here, only I use butter. I do not like the taste of sauteed olive oil.

Interesting..though pickled stuff sounds a tad odd for scrambled eggs. Then again, who hasn't eaten pickled Jalas in a breakfast scramble eh?
