The convenience food manufacturing company of the Tranzit Group in Debrecen will make scrambled eggs from 75,000 eggs between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. on the 21st of June in the square in front of the Great Church in Debrecen. The current world record is held by a 3.2-ton scrambled egg made from 60,000 eggs. The people of Debrecen try to surpass this by making more than 3.5 tons of scrambled eggs.
At last year’s Zamat Festival, the world’s biggest deep-fried slice was prepared by the convenience food company Tranzit Group, which deals with cutting and processing poultry. Then they decided they would “throw” something similarly big with the Tranzit-Food premium chicken brand. As a result of their brainstorming, they came to the point of trying to make the world’s largest scrambled eggs. The current world record is held by a 3.2-ton scrambled egg made from 60,000 eggs.
The “Csibém csapat” undertook no less than to make scrambled eggs weighing more than 3.5 tons from 75,000 eggs and distribute them within the framework of the “Breakfast in Debrecen” project. First, the 3-meter-wide and 22-meter-long special baking equipment had to be prepared, in which 75,000 eggs could be prepared in 4 hours. Keeping food safety aspects in mind, the 75,000 eggs are cracked at the dawn of the record attempt, namely in a refrigerated space where the preservation of quality is guaranteed. The other big challenge is to treat the eggs to the right core temperature during baking and to keep them at the right core temperature.
The record attempt will take place in Debrecen’s main square, Kossuth Square, in the shadow of the Great Church, between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. on the 21st of June. The Rádió1 Balázsék Show is stationed at the location and broadcasts the events live in Hungarian. From the 75,000 eggs, around 30-35,000 portions of scrambled eggs will be made, which will be distributed among those present. Nearly 100 people will work on-site to ensure that the world summit attempt is successful and internationally certified.
