Retarded egg question

[Negolien]

not sure if I will die so figured I would ask. I have a chicken tender recipe that uses egg wash then coatwith crumbs. Can I make scrambled eggs with the leftover egg or is this a cross contamination issue?

i think if its cooked well youre 100% safe.

I always us the leftover eggs and crumbs when doing breaded chicken. But i add the leftover breadcrumbs to the eggs, scramble up and cook like a fritter. We munch it while we finish prepping with whatever gravy were using, or just some hotsauce...never had a problem.

I remember having a raw egg in my orange Julius. Never had a problem.
What changed?

And I thought I was tight fisted.......... How much are a dozen eggs these days? LOL I would venture to guess that if and only if you cook those scrambled eggs to more than 165F which is the same minimum safe internal temperature for chicken being considered cooked, you would be okay. Not sure about the flavor though. I vote no.

Here is an FDA site with more information on eggs:

What You Need to Know About Egg Safety

To avoid the possibility of foodborne illness, fresh eggs must be handled carefully. Even eggs with clean, uncracked shells may occasionally contain bacteria called Salmonella that can cause an intestinal infection.

i think hes concerned about the cooties from the raw chicken.

Never cross contaminate chicken with chicken...........
Jokes aside, as long as you cook your scrambled eggs to 165F its perfectly safe. Just make sure you keep the egg wash in the fridge or cook right after using it as a egg wash.

Did you run a raw chicken breast through your raw egg?

Thanks I figured I would be ok but if in doubt ask is my motto. As for the price of eggs here I' am paying $6 a dozen. Groceries are kicking my butt lately so yes I am tight fisted where I can be.

I’m sure it would be fine, but I’m out!

Christian, I haven't priced eggs in the store lately as I am lucky enough to get them for free from my buddy's farm. At fifty cents per egg, I would probably scramble them too. But I would cook them longer than I usually do.

Just cook it. Eat it. Enjoy!

Don't do this:

If you fully cook it, should be fine IMHO.

I often take marinades I have for chicken or other meats....and if I want to use it as a sauce or part of a sauce after marination....I make sure and heat it on the stove to a boil, etc...to sanitize it.
Egg should do the same....but I'd make sure they were fully cooked when scrambled.

HTH,

Yeah definitely wouldn't want to eat soft scrambled or over easy.

I always check the label for the IQ tests of my eggs. Solves the problem.

If after doing it .... just let us know that you're still alive !!!! If we don't see any posts ..... we'll know the outcome !!!
