McDonald’s iconic Egg McMuffin has been a breakfast staple for decades, but there’s a simple way to elevate its flavor. Adding McDonald's grill seasoning, a mix of salt and pepper, to the egg creates a more flavorful and satisfying breakfast experience for loyal fans.
Enhance Your McDonald's Egg McMuffin with a Simple Grill Seasoning Trick for Extra Flavor
Since the introduction of its breakfast menu in 1977, McDonald's breakfast options have been a staple for both loyal customers and casual diners. The iconic Egg McMuffin led this menu even before it officially existed. First conceived in 1971 and tested thoroughly before its national launch in 1975, the Egg McMuffin has remained unchanged for over five decades. Despite its long-standing success and status as one of McDonald’s best-selling items, there are still ways to enhance this breakfast classic.
A straightforward upgrade, even endorsed by a former McDonald's corporate chef, is to request "grill seasoning" on the egg. This essential salt and pepper mix seasoning is a surprising game-changer. The reason? The standard Egg McMuffin comes without any seasoning on the egg, and adding this simple touch can significantly elevate the flavor. For those skeptical about the impact of salt and pepper, a quick test at home with an unseasoned egg will reveal what’s missing.
Customize Your Egg McMuffin with Condiments and Hashbrowns for Added Flavor and Moisture
Another common critique of the Egg McMuffin is that it can be a bit dry. While ordering it as part of a meal with a coffee solves this problem, there are other ways to add moisture and flavor. Condiments like ketchup and mayo offer a tasty, bodega-style twist, while a drizzle of honey, a throwback to how the sandwich was enjoyed in 1972, provides a sweet contrast. McDonald’s sauces, even limited-edition ones that might still be in your kitchen, can also be used to customize the sandwich to your taste.
Try adding a hashbrown patty to your egg McMuffin for a heartier option. This adds another layer of flavor and texture, with the soft crunch of the potatoes complementing the sandwich. McDonald’s breakfast menus in Australia feature a similar combination.
Another inventive twist is to order a McGriddle patty on the side and place it in the center of your Egg McMuffin. Add an egg, bacon, or sausage patty to build your breakfast version of a Big Mac for an extra indulgent creation.
With these easy tweaks, McDonald's breakfast can be taken to new levels of flavor and satisfaction.
