To make perfect scrambled eggs every time, here’s a foolproof method:

Directions:

1. Prep the Eggs: Crack your eggs into a bowl and whisk them together. Make sure the yolks and whites are fully blended. If you like creamier eggs, you can add the milk or cream at this point. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
2. Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan on the stove over medium-low heat. Let it warm up for about 1-2 minutes. Low heat is key for soft, fluffy eggs.
3. Add Fat: Add the butter or oil to the pan. Allow it to melt gently and coat the bottom of the pan.
4. Cook the Eggs: Pour the eggs into the pan. Wait a few seconds for the edges to start setting, then gently stir the eggs with a spatula. Stir occasionally, but not too frequently. The goal is to create soft curds without overcooking them.
5. Finishing Touches: Once the eggs are mostly set but still a little creamy (they’ll continue cooking off the heat), take the pan off the stove. The eggs will finish cooking from the residual heat.
6. Serve Immediately: Serve your scrambled eggs right away for the best texture and flavor. You can garnish with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for an extra touch.

Enjoy! Scrambled eggs are a great base for customizing with cheese, veggies, or meats if you like.
