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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh eggs. Fresh eggs produce the best results in any egg dish.
  • Cook eggs over low heat. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming rubbery.
  • Don't overcook eggs. Overcooked eggs are tough and dry. Cook them just until they are set to your desired doneness.
  • Season eggs with salt and pepper. This will enhance their flavor.
  • Add other ingredients to your eggs. This can include vegetables, cheese, meat, or fish. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Serve eggs immediately. Eggs are best when they are served immediately after they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Eggs are a versatile and delicious food that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you like them scrambled, fried, poached, or boiled, there's an egg recipe out there for everyone.
