How to Scramble Eggs

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and salt and pepper to taste (I like 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper).

Step 2

In a small non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter until foaming subsides and swirl to coat the entire inside surface of the pan.

Step 3

Pour in eggs into the center of the pan and reduce heat to medium. This will push any butter to the sides of the skillet and prevent them from sticking.

Step 4

Gently move the eggs from one side of the pan to the other with a rubber spatula as they begin to set. Without flipping the eggs, continue to push the eggs from side to side until cooked through, about 3 minutes.

Step 5

Remove immediately, season with salt and pepper to taste if desired, and serve.
