Lynn Russell taught me to make her favorite scrambled eggs when she came to stay with us in San Francisco. They’re beautifully luxe, herb-flecked scrambled eggs with cream cheese. Perfect for weekend brunch. Lynn is a fantastic cook, but I didn’t connect with her though cooking. It was through her letterpress work. I loved her clean, understated designs, and found her writing<\/span><\/a>\u00a0about her work and son inspiring.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scrambled Eggs with Cream Cheese: The Inspiration<\/span><\/h2>\n

We did a bunch of stuff while she was in SF. Her visit happened to coincide with the Alameda Flea market<\/span><\/a>. We crossed the bridge not long after sunrise to beat the crowds. Conversation on the drive over covered a range of things, and one of the things we covered was cooking — specifically eggs.\u00a0 <\/span>For example, poached eggs are good, but jiggly whites are just gross. Lynn mentioned she does a scramble where she adds dollops of a special, super-herby cream cheese to finish the eggs. This was an idea that hadn’t occurred to me. They sounded incredible. The sort of thing I think of as simple-special<\/i> – a simple technique with a special twist. Lynn was a good sport, and let me photograph her while she showed me how to make them.<\/span><\/p>\n

You mash them into a brick of cream cheese and then use this component for a wonderful flavor packed finish to your eggs.\u00a0 <\/span>You\u2019ll likely have quite a bit left over, and that is fantastic. Here\u2019s a list of ways to use it.
