Making scrambled eggs is a straightforward process, but mastering the technique can take your dish from ordinary to extraordinary. Here’s a quick step-by-step overview of how we’ll whip up these soft and creamy eggs, allowing the magic of culinary transformation to happen in just a matter of minutes:

1. Whisk together eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low and add butter.
3. Pour in the egg mixture once the butter’s melted.
4. Allow the eggs to sit briefly before gently stirring with a spatula.
5. Cook until they’re soft and creamy, but not fully set.
6. Remove from heat to finish cooking.

What You’ll Need

Gathering the right ingredients is essential. Here’s what goes into our Perfect Scrambled Eggs:

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk or cream (you can use half-and-half or even a non-dairy alternative!)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Butter for cooking (olive oil or another fat can work in a pinch)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together all the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until thoroughly combined.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add a generous pat of butter.
3. Wait for the butter to melt and start bubbling, then pour in your egg mixture.
4. Let it sit for a few seconds—resist the urge to stir at this point!
5. As the eggs begin to set, gently fold them using a spatula, pushing the cooked edges toward the center.
6. Keep stirring occasionally and cook until they’re soft and creamy but still slightly runny.
7. Remove the skillet from heat; the residual warmth will finish cooking them. Serve immediately!
