How to Cook Scrambled Eggs Perfectly Every Time
Ingredients
- Eggs : The star of the dish! Use fresh eggs for the best flavor and texture.
- Salt and Pepper : Seasoning is key to enhancing the natural taste of the eggs.
- Butter or Oil : Adds richness and prevents sticking. Butter provides a rich, creamy flavor, while oil is a great neutral option.
- Milk or Cream (Optional) : Adding a splash of milk or cream can make your eggs creamier, though purists argue that eggs alone are perfect.
- Cheese (Optional) : For a cheesy twist, shred your favorite cheese like cheddar or Monterey Jack to fold into the eggs.
Tools
- Nonstick Skillet : A good-quality nonstick pan ensures your eggs don’t stick and makes cleanup a breeze.
- Whisk or Fork : To beat the eggs until smooth and evenly mixed.
- Spatula : A silicone or rubber spatula works best for gently folding and stirring the eggs without scratching your pan.
- Mixing Bowl : For whisking the eggs before cooking.
