A podcast I was listening to had a big fan response to the breakfast behavior of one of the hosts: ketchup on eggs. (Hello MiMH)

Much like ketchup on hot dogs in Chicago, I had no idea this was verboten. It was just a thing we do.

Is ketchup on scrambled eggs wrong? Or are they the dadhole?

I put a little ketchup on my plate and dab the egg in as needed. My wife squirts it directly on the eggs which is too much for me, but not something I would bother bringing up to her.

It’s not for me but do whatever the **** you want.

@meow be damned!

Ketchup on eggs is something most people outgrow by, like, 2nd grade. Maybe 3rd.

I vaguely remember my parents trying to get me to eat scrambled eggs with ketchup on them when I was a little kid. It might be a New England thing (I’m originally from Massachusetts).

Soft scrambed eggs are delicious.

Of course, there also the meme "I am making an omelet..... *attempts fold* I am making scrabbled eggs."

Scrambled eggs, for me, is normally about working in mushrooms, meat, cheese, etc. Tough to do that with fried eggs. I do make several fried eggs a week as they are a quick and easy way to get some protein.

I like the ones Gordon Ramsay makes with sour cream. Lots of whisking, removing from heat, repeat. Good stuff.

That was solid content.

Ketchup is just wrong in general.

That's generally the method I use, sans creme fraiche. 75% of the cooking time is of the heat.

The thought of eggs and catsup makes me gag.

Are there other hot sauces

Posted: **Sun Jan 10, 2021 8:10 pm**

Sriracha has entered the conversation

Salsa with scrambled eggs is better than all that...

This is the way to go.

I usually have around 8-10 hot sauces 'active' in the cupboard at any given time. Everything from Crystal/Tabasco up to multiple habanero/Scotch bonnet options. Current grand champ on the heat-o-meter scale is a sambal I got at the farmers market that is so hot it makes my eyes water when I open the jar.

I’ve been working on a Carolina reaper hot sauce for some time. Gonna be a while before I finish that

this. Cholula specifically.

Cholula is best for eggs...

I too have a crap ton of hot sauces in my fridge at the moment.

Cholula, Chipotle Tobasco, Franks, El Yucateca, Homemade red chili, homemade jalepeno, a red habanero, and maybe one or two more that I can't recall.

No love here for Texas Pete? That was the go to for pulled pork when we would visit the grandparents in NC.

on the hot sauce/fridge note - how long do you guys leave stuff like this in your fridge before replacing? i have some teryiaki/yum yum type sauces I cook with infrequently and always wonder how long to keep around

My daily driver (at least these days) is Valentina Extra Hot. Good on damn near anything.

I dabble in Tabasco Green, Frank's Buffalo for wings (and these Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls I make in the air fryer), and a couple of local hot sauces I recommend: Red Clay Provisions mild hot sauce is excellent. Lots of flavor, not a ton of heat.
