Eggs Scrambled With Tomatoes Herbs


12 large eggs
1 tablespoon finely chopped fines herbs (chervil, parsley, tarragon, and chives)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons heavy cream
2 to 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 small tomatoes, peeled, seeded, diced, and drained
1 teaspoon chopped chives


1. Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl, reserving 2 yolks in a separate bowl. To the large bowl, add the fines herbs, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.

2. Add to the reserved egg yolks the heavy cream and mustard. Mix well.

3. In a heavy sauté pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. When the butter is melted, add the whole egg mixture and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until creamy and slightly thickened.

4. Add the yolk mixture and the tomatoes. Remove the pan from the heat while continuing to stir constantly. The heat in the pan will continue to cook the eggs. Perfectly scrambled eggs should be creamy with very soft curds. Sprinkle with the chives and serve immediately.
