  1. Making scrambled eggs can be a personal experience, but here’s how I like to prepare mine:

    1. Eggs: I usually use 2-3 fresh eggs per serving.

    2. Seasoning: I like to keep it simple with just a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Sometimes, I add a sprinkle of garlic powder or a dash of hot sauce for a kick.

    3. Liquid: I prefer to add a splash of milk or cream to make them extra creamy, but some people like to use water. I steer clear of adding too much to avoid watery eggs.

    4. Fat: I prefer unsalted butter for its flavor, but olive oil works well too. I melt about a tablespoon in the pan before adding the eggs.

    5. Pan: I use a non-stick skillet; it helps prevent sticking and makes cleanup easier.

    6. Heat settings: I start with medium-low heat to give the eggs time to cook gently. If the heat is too high, they can become rubbery.

    7. Cooking method: I whisk the eggs in a bowl until well combined, then pour them into the pan. I gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs around until they’ve just set but are still slightly runny—this usually takes a few minutes.

    8. Finish: I take them off the heat just before they’re fully cooked to allow residual heat to finish the job, ensuring they’re creamy and soft.

    Optional: I often top them with fresh herbs like chives or parsley, or cheese for added flavor. Enjoy!
