The Perfect Scrambled Eggs

Author: Per Asmussen
Keyword: Breakfast, Brunch, Egg
Prep Time: 2 minutes
Cook Time: 7 minutes

Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Pot (option 1)
  • Saucepan (option 2)
  • Spatula

Ingredients

Scrambled Eggs

  • 4 pcs. Egg
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • Pepper from the grinder
  • 1.2 gram Cayenne Pepper
  • 20 gram Butter
  • 2 slices Bread sourdough bread preferred

Instructions

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl.
  • Grind salt and pepper into the egg mixture and add the cayenne pepper.
  • Whisk everything together well.
  • Put a small pot/saucepan on the stove and turn on to medium heat (6-7 out of 14 on my stove).
  • Add half of the butter and let it melt.
  • When it starts to sizzle, add the egg mixture. Use a spatula to get everything in.
  • Stir the eggs so they don't stick to the bottom. Start by stirring well and make sure you get everything from the edges. It's like making a risotto; you have to stir constantly. 
  • After about 1 minute, start pushing the egg mixture towards the center.
  • It will slowly start to come together, and when most of the mixture has thickened, take it off the heat.
  • Add the other half of the butter and mix it well into your scrambled eggs.
  • Serve with toasted bread and optionally ham, bacon, smoked salmon, or just chopped chives.
  • Serve the dish immediately.
  • Bon appétit.
