This is from chef on ashton who explains the correct way to make scrambled eggs. |
Note from the Diva
Whip the eggs until frothy and evenly colored.
Over-beating will cause the protein molecules to unravel and your egs won't be fluffy and full.
gently cook the eggs over low heat, cooking them slowly keeps them creamy.
as the eggs begin to set, SLOWLY DRAW a spatula from the edge of the pan toward the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to run onto the surface of the pan. this will create soft lumps with almost a custard texture. |
