This second episode of Marmite Gastronomy was made in response to TV chef Gordon Ramsay's attempt to make scrambled eggs. I was disturbed by the number of basic errors that he made:

This is how it should be done.

    I'm surprised, Nigella -- this actually looks delicious. I'm still a little put-off by the Marmite, but I won't "knock it" until I've "tried it."
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    Have you bought any Marmite from that tea shop yet? If you try any, please let me know how you get on.
  • Pirata718 6 months ago

  • Pirata718 6 months ago

    vimeo.com/1076764


    muahahhaha

    oh and it makes for a good thing to bring to a big free booze-filled summer concert series. unfortunately you cant bring the toast that easily but dont worry people (when they are that loaded and hear its british) will try it anyway. hahaha.

    I had to try this and, I have. I left out the Marmyte, Basil and, burnt the toast but, I'm a convert. NigellR, DeliR- YouR.

    How comes Rychbaur is allowed to get away with such bad grammar?
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    He's a friend.

    Burnt toast and french butter? What was the man thinking?

    I like scrambled eggs, but Marmite still gives me the creeping willies...

    Nice presentation, though, Steve....I'm hungry :-)

    Yummy!

    Although personally I wouldn't have asparagus for breakfast. Probably tomatoes and mushrooms. And bacon.

    I like the idea of adding basil too.

    Normally with eggs I have a good ol' cup of tea as well - apart from scrambled eggs. For some reason I think coffee goes better with them.
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    The English asparagus season is nearly over, so I suggest you try some asparagus for a weekend breakfast soon, before it's too late. You won't regret it.

    I'm with you on the tea/coffee business. Boiled and fried eggs go well with tea, but I always have coffee when they're scrambled.
  • Buck Flashroy plus 6 months ago
    I've been having asparagus with a couple of my evening meals recently. It's good, but for some reason it doesn't feel like something I'd want for breakfast. Probably just me.

    Asparagus always reminds me of the Gary Larson cartoon (of 'The far side gallery' fame): Failed advertising slogans - 'I cuss, you cuss, we all cuss for asparagus!'
  • Bill 6 months ago
    I have to agree with Buck. Asparagus just doesn't seem right at breakfast time.
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    You two have such limited horizons. Go for it, have asparagus for breakfast! Go wild and crazy just once!

    This looks delicious. Well done.
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    Thanks for the comment and the "Like". Have you lost your Marmite virginity yet?
  • Thommy Browne plus 6 months ago
    I have yet to try it.

  • Pirata718 6 months ago
    "use more if you are a fat bastard" hahahhaha

    haha the plate at the end looks like its making the :/ face like its not quite sure if it wants marmite on it. haha.
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    I'm not sure I see that. Have you been stealing from your hospital's drugs cabinet again?

  • Bill 6 months ago
    0:58 I heard Alby being tortured.
    I am very impressed with your coloured eggs but feel you ruined them with the addition of Basil.

    I've always added the cream and eggs into the pan at the same time. What's the advantage to adding the cream in at the end?
  • SteveR plus 6 months ago
    Sometimes I add cream at the start, sometimes I add it during cooking, it makes no difference as far as I can see. Gordon thinks it makes a difference, but what does he know?

    HaHa,
    great video, got a like, I like the toasting-machine, I wouln't call it a toaster. I would give the eggs some turns more (if you don't know the chicken personally) cause of salmonellas. The basil is best without any heating but otherwise a good idea, try it with sage also delicious.

    Yum! A heart attack on a plate! Love basil and asparagus, not a big fan of cream and butter in my eggs because they always end up on my thighs (although it looks delicious!)

    A thermonuclear cholesterol bomb! Love it!
    I am beginning to suspect that with all this global warming England is becoming a Mediterranean country - barbeques... asparagus... basil with scrambled eggs...
    The end result looked great

    oh i will knock it...
    does everyone in britain make eggs that runny? or is it just your preference? perhaps it's just my fear of bacteria...and i saw the face too meag!
  • SteveR plus 5 months ago
    The eggs I used had been certified as "salmonella-free". I believe that scrambled eggs just aren't as good if they're too dry. In my experience, most people in Britain make scrambled eggs a little too dry for my taste.
  • parading.jerk 5 months ago
    that's funny, "salmonella free", i wonder if that's just a marketing trick? along with them being painted easter colours. i was making scrambled eggs this morning and i couldn't help but think of how they could be ruined by marmite toast.
  • SteveR plus 5 months ago
    In Britain, if an egg has a Red Lion stamp on it, it means the egg has been produced by a hen which has been vaccinated against salmonella. Such eggs are safe to eat raw or cooked to a runny texture:

    Hmm. Looks like something I might have to try although I prefer my eggs a bit firmer. Unfortunately, the wife has me on a strict diet due to my very high blood pressure. I would forgo the salt in the eggs because of the Marmite. The cream and butter would be a problem--as much as I love both!

    My wife and son are still more than horrified by the Marmite. I have been storing it in the refrigerator since I've not been eating as much but I do take it out and, remove the cap and sniff it quite often. Ahhhhh!
