This recipe produces moist scrambled eggs with medium-size curds.

Special equipment:
Nonstick skillet, silicon spatula
Notes:

Milk will make slightly richer, moister eggs, but is not required.

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons milk (optional, see note above)
  • Freshly ground black or white pepper

Directions

  1. 1.

    In a nonstick skillet, stir together eggs, salt, butter, and milk, if using, and stir. Set over medium heat and cook, stirring with a silicon spatula, until eggs are moist and just beginning to set. Remove from heat and continue to cook, stirring, until eggs have just set into soft curds; if necessary, return to heat briefly if eggs need to cook slightly more. Season with pepper and serve right away.
