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.

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 eggs
1/3 cup water, milk or half-and-half
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon butter or margarine

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, water, salt and pepper with a fork or wire whisk until well mixed.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, heat the butter over medium heat just until it begins to sizzle and look hot.
  • Pour egg mixture into skillet. The egg mixture will become firm at the bottom and side very quickly. When this happens, gently lift the cooked portions around the edge with a turner so that the thin, uncooked portion can flow to the bottom. Avoid constant stirring because the eggs will become dry and rubbery rather than light and fluffy.
  • Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist and creamy. Serve immediately.
