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.

MARTHA'S SCRAMBLED EGGS
This is how Martha makes scrambled eggs so you know it's going to be good. First, preparation is everything. Before you even start to scramble, toast and butter the English muffins and pop them in a warm oven on the plates you'll serve breakfast on. The eggs are cooked in clarified butter, they turn out soft, moist, and slide easily out of the pan.

Steps:
- Over the bowl, use the knife to cut a small to medium sized hole in the tip of the egg.
- Turn the egg over and make a small hole in the opposite side.
- Shake egg over the bowl, or blow through the small hole until all of the raw egg yolk and white has emptied out into the bowl.
- Repeat with all eggs.
- It is okay if the eggs crack or chip a little but try to keep them mostly intact.
- Once all eggs have been emptied, rinse with water. Be sure they are clean without any remaining egg white or yolk.
- Decorate the shells with paint, egg dye recipe #160383, glitter, etc. The more colorful and outrageous, the better!
- Once eggs are dry, cut small squares of tissue paper and glue them over the small holes to seal them.
- Using a funnel, or small spoon, fill the eggs with confetti or shredded paper through the larger hole.
- Once an egg is full, pack a small tissue paper "puff" to plug the larger hole and seal it with glue.
- Allow cascarones to dry and store in the egg carton to protect them.
- Have fun hunting for and throwing cascarones, or sneaking up behind someone and cracking the cascarone over their head!

Tips:
- Use a Variety of Vegetables: Choose a mix of vegetables that you enjoy, such as bell peppers, spinach, tomatoes, and onions. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your scrambled eggs.
- Finely Chop the Vegetables: Make sure to chop the vegetables into small pieces so that they cook evenly and blend well with the eggs.
- Season the Eggs: Don't forget to season the eggs with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Cook the Eggs Slowly: Cook the eggs over low heat, stirring constantly. This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked and rubbery.
- Add the Vegetables at the End: Add the vegetables to the eggs towards the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Serve Immediately: Scrambled eggs are best served immediately after cooking. They can be enjoyed on their own or with toast, fruit, or yogurt.
