PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
• TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
• Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
• Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
• Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT, FLUFFY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Crack the eggs into a glass mixing bowl and beat them until they turn a pale yellow color.
• Add the milk to the eggs and season to taste with salt and white pepper. Whisk the eggs like crazy. If you're not up for that, you can use an electric beater or stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Whatever device you use, you're trying to beat as much air as possible into the eggs. Note that it may be easier and quicker to beat the eggs in two batches (4 at a time) to make sure you don't have any lumps.
• Heat a heavy-bottomed, nonstick sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
• When the butter in the pan is hot enough to make a drop of water hiss, pour in the eggs. Don't stir. Let the eggs cook for up to a minute or until the bottom starts to set but doesn't brown.
• With a heat-resistant rubber spatula, gently push one edge of the egg into the center while tilting the pan to allow the still liquid egg to flow in underneath. Repeat with the other edges, until there's no liquid left.
• Turn off the heat and continue gently stirring and turning the egg until all the uncooked parts become firm. Don't break up the egg, keeping the curds as large as possible. If you're adding any other ingredients, quickly add them now.
• Transfer to a plate when the eggs are set but still moist and soft. Eggs are delicate, so they'll continue to cook for a few moments after they're on the plate. Serve immediately and enjoy.

MEAN CHEF'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, and beat thoroughly with the whisk.
• Place a 2-3 qt saucepan with a tablespoon of butter over medium heat, swirling to film the bottom and sides.
• When the butter foams, pour all the eggs into hot pan and immediately being stirring with the whisk, clearing the thickening eggs from the sides and bottom of the pan and breaking up any lumps.
• Be sure to run the whisk around the bottom corners to dislodge any egg that may stick there.
• Cook for a minute or slightly more, steadily whisking, until the eggs are uniformly thickened but still quite soft, with very small and creamy curds.
• Remove the pan from the heat, whisk in another spoon of butter and 1 or 2 tablespoons of cream, and quickly spoon the eggs into a soft mound on a warm plate.
• Serve immediately with a garnish of your choice.

THE SECRET TO FLUFFY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute bell pepper and mushrooms until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk eggs with salt until completely combined and very foamy.
• Melt butter in another skillet over low heat until bubbling. Add eggs and stir frequently for even, moist curds, 2 to 3 minutes. Once eggs are thickened and creamy, but still shiny, add sauteed vegetables, and stir to incorporate. Remove scrambled eggs from the pan before they begin to look dry, as they will continue to thicken off the heat.

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS 101

Steps:

• Grease your skillet and raise your flame to high.
• Mix eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
• Drop a tiny drop of egg in pan, if it sizzles up immediately then your pan is very hot and ready.
• Pour the egg mixtue into the skillet and lower your flame to medium high.
• As soon as the edges but no other part of the eggs start to firm up, then use your spatula to push the cooked edges all the way to the center. This should cause the runny eggs to move to the now empty area (you can tilt your pan to help along) and they will start setting as well. Do this several times until the eggs are nearly cooked taking care not to stir the eggs at all (or you'll end up with a scorched overdone mess), only pushing up to the center as they set up at the outer edges.
• When the eggs are only slightly runny still, turn off the flame and flip over the eggs. Remove immediately from the pan before they harden up and lose their creaminess.
• Serve immediately with a little drizzled maple syrup if desired.
• Enjoy!
