Give Your Scrambled Eggs An Umami Boost With This Unique Ingredient
By HOLLY RIDDLE
Umami is a taste sensation produced by specific amino acids and nucleotides that creates a rich and meaty flavor. It may be the one thing your scrambled eggs are missing.
Soy sauce is one of the easiest ways to add a deep, rich umami flavor to your eggs. Unlike other simple umami ingredients, soy sauce is not at all subtle.
Soy sauce can deliver a pungent flavor that will change up the flavor profile of your eggs. Start with a splash of soy sauce, and cook the eggs low and slow.
Once you give your newly reinvented scrambled eggs an initial taste, you can decide if you want to add more or less soy sauce next time.
