   2. Slowly temper the eggs by adding a bit of the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking to incorporate. (*It is very important to add the mixture slowly so you don't cook the eggs!*) Continue adding the cream until the egg mixture is about the temperature as the cream mixture; add the remaining cream mixture. If you scrambled some of the eggs by accident, strain the mixture.
