The ingredients for scrambled eggs are easy and straightforward. Eggs, butter, salt and pepper. Although there are some rules!
Do not add any liquid to your eggs, we're using butter.
Do not season your eggs before cooking.
Do not whip your eggs before cooking.
Look, I just excluded a lot of steps for you...and trust me...they turn out great!
Toss your eggs into your desired cooking vessel. Turn your heat to medium. DO YOU HEAR ME?! Medium. Not medium high, not high, just medium. If your stove runs hot maybe a little under medium. You get tough, rubbery, egg-y tasting eggs when you overcook your eggs. Please don't over cook your eggs, ok? Please?
Now start stirring your eggs. Do not leave your eggs to just sit for any extended period of time, it's up to you to make sure they don't get brown on the bottom and soggy on top. Stir more often for a finer consistency, and less for a chunkier consistency.
We are halfway there!
Done! These would still be too underdone to eat (my own preference), but residual heat from the pan will continue cooking the eggs. Stir them just a little more to finish of the cooking, and they are done!
All that's left is to plate them, sprinkle with salt and pepper, add toast or bacon, a nice hot cup of coffee and you have breakfast! Oh and let me tell you these eggs truly are delicious. They are velvety smooth, and have a lovely rich taste from the butter. So remember! Heat them slowly, add no seasoning, just butter, do not over cook, and you will have perfect eggs every time!
