Tips on Making the Best Scrambled Eggs For Your Breakfast Scramble
Aside from the delicious ingredients that we’re adding into this dish, another secret to making the best breakfast scramble would be making perfect scrambled eggs, just how you want it. We’ve got a couple of tips for making it:
- Use a non-stick pan to make them soft and fluffy. Eggs have a tendency to stick to cast-iron pans. So, to avoid wasting eggs and time scrubbing them off the pan, use your trusty non-stick skillet pan.
- Preheat your pan then cook your eggs in low heat. Make sure to preheat your pan over medium-high heat first. Then turn the heat down to low once the beaten egg mixture has been poured to make sure the eggs don’t dry out when cooking.
- Whisk or mix your scrambled eggs fast enough to form curdles if you want them soft and moist. This is so that they won’t brown and dry out.
- Remove the pan from the heat while stirring the eggs until curds form. Don’t worry about not cooking your eggs enough because they will continue to cook even when the pan is removed.
