Perfect Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients

• 4 pieces Large eggs (room temperature)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cut into small pieces)
• 1 teaspoon Sour cream or crème fraîche (adds creaminess at the end)
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt (fine sea salt)
• 1 pinch Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. Gather & prep ingredients

   Place the skillet on the stove, cut butter into small cubes, crack the eggs directly into the skillet, and have sour cream, salt, and pepper ready nearby.

   Time: PT1M

2. Melt butter over low heat

   Turn the burner to low and let the butter melt, swirling the pan gently with the plastic scraper to coat the surface evenly.

   Time: PT1M

   Temperature: low

3. Add eggs and start stirring

   Immediately after the butter has melted, crack the eggs directly into the pan. Using the scraper, stir continuously, pulling the cooked edges toward the center while letting the uncooked liquid flow to the pan’s surface.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: low

4. Remove from heat & finish cooking

   When the eggs are still slightly runny (about 80% set), lift the skillet off the burner. Keep stirring for another 30 seconds; the residual heat will finish cooking them without over‑cooking.

   Time: PT30S

5. Season & add creaminess

   Sprinkle salt and pepper, then fold in the teaspoon of sour cream or crème fraîche. Give a final gentle stir until fully incorporated.

   Time: PT30S

6. Plate and serve

   Slide the fluffy eggs onto a warm plate and serve immediately. Optional: garnish with fresh chives or a dash of extra pepper.

   Time: PT30S
