Equipment
- 1 Nonstick pan All-Clad pans have a permanent spot in my kitchen!
- 1 Rubber Spatula I love this set of two from Williams-Sonoma!
Ingredients
- 3-4 Eggs
- ½ Tablespoon Butter
- 1 Pinch Sea Salt
Instructions
- To make these soft scrambled eggs, crack your eggs into a bowl and whisk them well, making sure to get a good amount of air into the mixture. The air will make the eggs light and fluffy, and achieve their ideal texture. And, of course, make sure to whisk them until there are no clumps.
- Next, add your eggs to a nonstick pan (this is SUPER important, to ensure that the eggs don’t stick) and heat them over medium-low heat. The key to achieving that perfect soft scramble is to go low and slow, so that the eggs retain their moisture. Higher heat temperatures can make the egg proteins bind together, causing them to yield a tougher result.
- Then, using a rubber spatula, gently push the eggs from the sides of the skillet into the center, repeating this process over the course of two minutes or so, until the eggs are mostly set, but still a little undercooked. The eggs will continue to cook on the plate, as they cool, so there will be no raw bits!
- Finally, once done, serve your perfectly soft scrambled eggs while they’re still warm, and enjoy!
