Of Course Martha Stewart Makes Scrambled Eggs In A Cappuccino Machine
Using a coffee machine as a makeshift stove isn't an unheard-of practice. If you're in a hotel room that doesn't have a kitchenette, or a college dorm that doesn't allow hot plates, having a coffee machine on hand can be a great help.
How does Martha Stewart make scrambled eggs in a cappuccino machine?
A cappuccino machine, unlike a regular coffee maker, does more than just run boiling water through coffee grinds. It also has an attached nozzle that spews out steam, Perfect Daily Grind explains. This nozzle, called a steam wand, is designed for frothing the milk that goes in an espresso, turning it into a cappuccino. Heating up the coffee pot is the only way to use a regular coffee maker as a cooking vessel, but since she has a cappuccino machine, Martha Stewart takes advantage of the steam wand.
This method has been around long before Martha Stewart started doing it
While Martha Stewart may have been the first to make the technique go viral on social media, she wasn't the one who came up with the idea of cooking eggs with a cappuccino maker. Shortly after the video was posted, the Martha Stewart website clarified that it was restaurant chef Jody Williams who introduced Stewart to the steam wand method in an old episode of the Martha Stewart show. She apparently has been making it ever since.
