Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Whisk the Eggs
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Add the milk or cream and stir in salt and pepper. Avoid over-beating.
2. Heat the Pan Gently
Place a nonstick skillet over low heat.
Add the butter and allow it to melt slowly, coating the pan evenly.
3. Cook Slowly and Stir Gently
Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit for a few seconds until the edges just begin to set.
Using a silicone spatula, gently stir in slow, sweeping motions.
Lift and fold the eggs from the edges toward the center to create soft curds.
4. Remove from Heat Early
As soon as the eggs appear slightly undercooked and glossy, remove them from the heat.
They will continue to cook from residual heat, finishing with the perfect texture.
5. Serve and Garnish
Serve immediately. Add toppings such as fresh herbs, shredded cheese, or a drizzle of truffle oil.
Pair with toast, avocado, or crispy bacon for a complete meal.
