Serves 4
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 large eggs
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
INSTRUCTION:
- In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, kosher salt, and whole milk. Whisk the mixture until it becomes homogeneous and frothy, which usually takes about 1 minute. Allow the egg mixture to rest at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. During this time, you’ll notice the eggs darkening in color significantly.
- In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Swirl the pan as the butter melts to ensure even coating. Rewhisk the rested eggs until they become foamy.
- Transfer the foamy egg mixture to the skillet with the melted butter. Cook the eggs over medium-high heat, slowly scraping the bottom and sides of the pan with a silicone spatula as the eggs begin to solidify.
- Continue cooking the eggs, constantly scraping and folding them, until they form solid, moist curds and there is no liquid egg remaining. This process usually takes about 2 minutes. Keep in mind that the eggs should still appear slightly underdone as they will continue cooking off the heat.
- Immediately transfer the light and fluffy scrambled eggs to a plate and serve.
Now, you can enjoy a plateful of light and fluffy scrambled eggs that will brighten up your mornings. The extra resting time allows the eggs to develop a richer flavor, and the careful cooking technique ensures a perfect texture. Serve these delightful scrambled eggs alongside toast or your favorite breakfast sides for a wholesome and satisfying meal. Happy cooking!
