SCRAMBLED EGGS RECIPE WITH DILL
Scrambled eggs should be soft, creamy and gently scrambled. A quality non-stick pan and silicon spatula are really useful. It's important that you use low heat and don't forget about the chance of carryover cooking. Eggs are delicate and cook very quickly. Even over low heat eggs can go from liquid to overcooked in seconds. You want to take the pan off of the heat before your eggs have finished cooking. Give the eggs a few seconds in the hot pan (off the heat) and you'll find the eggs turn out to be perfectly cooked - not dry, not too wet.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a medium non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
- Crack eggs into a bowl, add the dill and a pinch of salt, and then whisk until well blended.
- When the butter begins to bubble, pour in the eggs and immediately use a silicon spatula to swirl in small circles around the pan, without stopping, until the eggs look slightly thickened and very small curds begin to form, about 30 seconds. Change from making circles to making long sweeps across the pan until you see larger, creamy curds; about 20 seconds.
- When the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places, remove the pan from the heat and then stir in the cheese. Serve with an extra sprinkle of salt, a grind of black pepper and more dill (if desired).

EXTRA-CREAMY SCRAMBLED EGGS
Adding a small amount of a starchy slurry to scrambled eggs - a technique learned from Mandy Lee of the food blog Lady & Pups - prevents them from setting up too firmly, resulting in eggs that stay tender and moist, whether you like them soft-, medium- or hard-scrambled. Potato or tapioca starch is active at slightly lower temperatures than cornstarch and will produce a slightly more tender scramble, but cornstarch works just fine if it's what you've got on hand. Make sure your skillet is at just the right temperature by heating a tablespoon of water in the skillet and waiting for it to evaporate. For creamier eggs, you can replace the water with milk or half-and-half.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together starch with 1 1/2 tablespoons water until no lumps remain. Add half the butter cubes to starch mixture. Add eggs and salt, and whisk, breaking up any cubes of butter that have stuck together, until the eggs are frothy and homogenous. (There will still be solid chunks of butter in the eggs.)
- Set your serving plate near the stovetop. Heat 1 tablespoon water in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high, swirling gently until the water evaporates, leaving behind only a few small droplets. Immediately add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and swirl vigorously until the butter is mostly melted and foamy but not brown, about 10 seconds.
- Immediately add the egg mixture and cook, pushing and folding the eggs with a spatula, until they are slightly less cooked than you'd like them, about 1 to 2 minutes, depending on doneness. More vigorous stirring will result in finer, softer curds, while more leisurely stirring will result in larger, fluffier curds. Immediately transfer to the serving plate, and serve.

Tips:
- Use fresh dill. Fresh dill has a more pronounced flavor than dried dill, which makes it ideal for this recipe.
- Don't overcook the eggs. Eggs are best when they are cooked until they are just set, but still have a little bit of a runny yolk. Overcooked eggs will be tough and dry.
- Add the dill at the end of cooking. This will help to preserve the dill's delicate flavor.
- Serve immediately. Dilly scrambled eggs are best served as soon as they are made.
Conclusion:
Dilly scrambled eggs are a quick and easy breakfast or brunch recipe that is packed with flavor. The fresh dill adds a bright, herbaceous flavor to the eggs, and the creamy texture of the eggs is perfectly complemented by the dill's delicate crunch. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover dill. Serve dilly scrambled eggs with your favorite breakfast sides, such as toast, hash browns, or fruit.
