ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for cooking scrambled eggs in individual serv- ing portions or small batches is provided wherein a container is charged with a batch of uncooked, shelled eggs and a plurality of jets of steam and air are injected at spaced, stationary locations into the interior of the batch of eggs to disperse the steam and air throughout the eggs whereby the eggs are agitated and cooked. While injecting the jets of steam and air the con- tainer is simultaneously and continuously vented to allow escape of steam and air from the container to maintain the interior volume of the container at substantially atmospheric pressure. Finally, the injection of jets of steam and air is terminated in response to a predetermined condition after the batch of eggs is thoroughly and uniformly cooked to a substantially homogenous scrambled egg mass having an expanded volume. In the apparatus, a cup-like container is provided for holding a batch of eggs and is adapted to be matingly and sealingly engaged with a cover as- sembly around a projecting cylindrical steam injection conduit. A disc-like baffle plate is secured to, and concentric with, the injection conduit and is adapted to be received in a free space of the container above the batch of eggs for inhibiting the up- ward spattering of the eggs during steam injection. A vent pass- age is provided above the cover plate and communicates with the container during cooking of the eggs via an annular aperture in the cover plate concentric with the steam conduit to allow steam and air to escape from the container during cooking to maintain the interior volume of the container at substantially atmospheric pressure.
