Shirred eggs are prepared as a broiled or baked egg dish. Eggs are placed in small buttered dishes referred to as ramekins and broiled until the white is set, but the yolk remains liquid. The eggs may also be baked, but the cooking time is longer and the eggs may become tough and rubbery if cooked too long. Variations of the basic shirred egg may include the addition of herbs, cheese, and/or cream.
