Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Entree

Time 10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
Salt (to taste)
White pepper (freshly ground, to taste; or black pepper)
2 tablespoons clarified butter (or regular butter)

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.

Categories     main-dish

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes and frozen
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped chives, optional

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs with the egg yolk in a bowl until smooth and evenly yellow.
  • Put the beaten eggs in a small saucepot with the butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring the entire time with a spatula. The eggs should begin to thicken; transferring them on and off the heat will allow you to control the temperature, creating soft creamy eggs. When the eggs start to become thick and soupy, season with salt and pepper. Return to the heat and cook until desired doneness is achieved; if you'd like them cooked more, simply apply more heat.
  • Mix in the sour cream and garnish with chives if using.

The secret to this simple fluffy egg recipe-simply whisk I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® spread into the eggs!

Yield Serves 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread, divided
4 eggs
4 slices whole wheat bread, toasted if desired

Steps:

  • Beat 1 Tbsp. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread and eggs with fork or wire whisk in medium bowl about 2 minutes (small lumps of Spread will remain in egg mixture).
  • Heat remaining Tbsp. spread in nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted. Add egg mixture to skillet and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until eggs are thoroughly cooked, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use the right pan: A non-stick pan is ideal for scrambled eggs as it prevents them from sticking and makes them easy to stir.
  • Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will produce fluffier scrambled eggs than older eggs.
  • Bring eggs to room temperature: This will help them cook more evenly.
  • Beat eggs thoroughly: This will incorporate air into the eggs, making them lighter and fluffier.
  • Use the right amount of butter: Too much butter will make the eggs greasy, while too little will make them dry. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1 tablespoon of butter for every 2 eggs.
  • Cook eggs over low heat: This will help them cook slowly and evenly, preventing them from becoming overcooked and rubbery.
  • Stir eggs constantly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from forming large curds.
  • Remove eggs from heat when they are still slightly runny: This will help them continue to cook from the residual heat and prevent them from becoming overcooked.
  • Season eggs with salt and pepper to taste: You can also add other seasonings, such as herbs, spices, or cheese, to taste.

Conclusion:

By following these tips, you can make fluffy, delicious scrambled eggs that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Serve them on their own, with toast or breakfast potatoes, or as a filling for omelets, burritos, or sandwiches. Enjoy!
