Description

A classic, elevated. Simple, delicious scrambled eggs made perfectly every time.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 eggs
  • 0.5 tsp olive oil (or butter)
  • Pinch of good sea salt
  • A couple cilantro, parsley, or arugula leaves

Instructions

  1. Crack eggs into a small bowl. Whisk until whites and yolks are well incorporated.
  2. Place a small sauté pan over low heat. Add oil or butter, then add eggs to the pan while it is still cold.
  3. Using a rubber spatula, whisk eggs gently but briskly until small curds start to emerge. Constant whisking will help achieve even curd size and perfectly fluffy, creamy eggs. This should take 4-5 minutes.
  4. Halfway through, add a pinch of salt. Remove from heat while eggs are still relatively wet; residual heat will finish the cooking.
  5. Eat while hot with a couple of cilantro leaves as garnish.

Notes

  • For extra creamy eggs, add a splash of cream or milk to the whisked eggs.
  • If you don’t have fresh herbs, a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning is a delicious substitute.
  • Leftover scrambled eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently in a pan or microwave.
