'easy' scrambled egg method using old jars makes a 'yummy' breakfast

IF YOU'RE SICK OF YOUR SCRAMBLED EGGS LACKING IN TASTE AND WANT TO ADD THAT EXTRA PUNCH OF FLAVOUR, THIS IS A GAME CHANGER EMILIA RANDALL and NICOLA ROY 15:26, 31 Jan 2025 For a speedy,

effortless breakfast or lunch option, scrambled eggs are hard to beat – especially when paired with a crusty sourdough loaf. Yet, without the addition of sauces or spices, they can quickly

become a boring and tasteless feature of your morning. With countless flavours complementing eggs perfectly – think pesto, harissa, and chilli, for instance – infusing your scrambled eggs

with a preferred condiment may be more straightforward than you think. Condiment Claire, a TikTok personality with over 981.2k followers, recently shared a convenient hack that not only

transforms your morning meal but also promotes reducing food waste. Her suggestion is to repurpose nearly empty sauce jars, rather than disposing of them, to whip up a vibrant scrambled egg

dish. Claire's easy-to-follow method involves putting your choice of nearly empty condiment jar to good use, reports the Express. In her tutorial, she uses a mustard jar; however, other

ingredients that typically complement eggs can work equally well. The social media star stated: "It has come to my attention that not many of you know the empty mustard egg jar

hack." While unscrewing her nearly empty mustard jar's lid in the video, she asserted: "Now it's truly as easy as it seems." Article continues below Claire shows

viewers how you can incorporate the remnant sauce in the jar into the scrambled eggs by pouring egg mixture straight into the jar. Consequently, you end up with beautifully seasoned

scrambled eggs and give the jar a thorough clean in the process – a convenient win-win situation. This hack isn't exclusive to mustard jars; most nearly empty jars of your favourite

condiments could be utilised in this manner. Using this hack, every bit of sauce is utilised, resulting in an egg dish enriched with intense, complex flavour minus unnecessary waste.

Cracking eggs into a nearly empty condiment jar might just be the culinary hack you never knew you needed. According to Claire, who shared her kitchen wisdom, all you need to do is pop as

many eggs as desired into the jar, secure the lid, and shake vigorously. Article continues below This simple action blends the eggs with any residual condiment left in the jar, infusing them

with an extra burst of flavour that promises to elevate your dish. Demonstrating with a selection of jars nearing their end, Claire suggests: "You can use this with jam, with grainy

mustard, with chutney, tapenade, chilli oil, chilli jam, literally anything." Once the eggs are thoroughly mixed, it's time to cook them up as you would your usual scrambled

eggs—over a gentle heat in a non-stick pan, softly stirring until they begin to set. To dodge the common pitfall of overcooking, Claire advises removing the pan from the heat just before the

eggs are fully done, letting the residual warmth finish the job. Presenting her plate of perfectly scrambled eggs alongside her breakfast spread, Claire concludes: "Now you've got

nice yummy eggs, and a well-used jar of Dijon."
