Scrambled Eggs

Scrambled eggs are an everyday basic dish and is often dry, limp, flavorless, and unappealing. This basic recipe is for the person that refuses to accept anything basic when it comes to eggs. Patience is key with constant stiring and keeping an eye on the temperature and pace that your eggs are cooking. This is not a set it and forget it recipe; you must stir it constantly during the cooking process. The result will be a custard like creamy plate of scrambled eggs. 

Ingredients: 

• 3 eggs per serving

• 1 tbs dairy per serving (I prefer heavy whipping cream, but you can use half-and-half, milk, or leave this ingredient out if you don't have any of these options)

• Salt (I use Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt for cooking as it is not as salty as regular table salt)

• 2 tbs of butter (if using salted butter, go easy on the salt you may add to the eggs)

Get your preferred skillet or pan on the stove. Put two tablespoons of butter in the pan and set the heat to medium-low so the butter can melt. 

In a mixing bowl, crack three eggs per serving (per person), add a pinch of salt, and one tablespoon of your dairy choice for every three eggs. Mix until all yolks and whites are blended together, but don't beat them to death. 

If your butter is browning or sizzling, you need to turn the heat on the burner down. 

Pour your egg mixture into the melted butter (be sure to get all of the egg mixture out of the bowl and into the pan). Stir constantly until you have reached the consistency you want. There may be moments you need to lift the pan off the heat of the stove so the eggs don't become...well, the scrambled eggs you'd get for a "continental" breakfast at your next motel stay. 

Once the texture you desire has been achieved, immediately put the scrambled eggs on your plate, slice of toasted bread, English muffin, or anything else you want, 

This is where I add shredded Mexican cheese blend, cut green onions (or dry chives if you don't have the green onions), some fresh diced tomatoes, sprinkled with sprouts. 

Add salt and pepper to taste.
