LIFE CHANGING SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium-sized non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. We want the butter to pretty much coat the whole pan.
• Whisk the eggs. When the butter is just barely bubbling, add the eggs to the pan directly in the center so that the butter gets pushed out to the sides. ZERO STICKAGE. This is good.
• Watch for the edges to just barely start to set, and then gently swipe a spatula around the edges of the pan to create large soft curds. Don't flip the curds over. Continue this process, pausing in between to allow time for the eggs to cook but working quickly enough so as not to overcook the eggs, just gently pushing/folding the liquid eggs to form curds. The entire process should take 2-3 minutes or less.
• When the eggs are barely set and you have some big folds of heavenly soft scrambled eggs laying in the pan, remove from heat. Serve on a breakfast sandwich or with your bowls or just by themselves. SO. AMAZINGLY. GOOD.

SUNNY'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED CHEESY EGGS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick pan with sloped sides (even a wok shape works), melt the butter over medium-low heat, being careful to not brown the butter. If it begins to bubble, the heat is too high, so lower the heat to cook the eggs properly. (Slow and low like BBQ is the way to go with eggs.)
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the eggs and 1 teaspoon cold water. Vigorously whisk until frothy and smooth. Swirl the pan around to coat the butter on the bottom and up the sides. Pour the eggs into the pan and let sit for a few seconds. When the eggs begin to lightly set on the bottom, use the whisk to gently beat the eggs, then allow them to sit for just a few seconds between beating them again. Curds will begin to form and increase throughout the cooking time. Repeat this process of whisking then resting the eggs for a few seconds until about 50 percent of the eggs are set and the rest are still wet. At this point, sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper and continue to whisk and rest alternately. Once the eggs are 75 percent done, add the cheese and from this moment, continue to whisk the eggs until done. This entire process from pouring in the eggs to them being finished should take 8 to 12 minutes; this isn't a race, only a journey to the best scrambled eggs ever. Remove from the heat and continue to scramble in the last seconds. Serve warm.

SALTIE'S SOFT-SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Break the eggs into the pan when it is warm but not yet hot. Sprinkle the eggs lightly with salt.
• Let the pan heat up, and don't move the eggs until the egg whites begin to set. Using a heat-resistant spatula, move the whites around the pan to help them cook through, while keeping the yolk unbroken, for about 30 seconds. When the whites fluff up and are almost completely set, remove from the heat and fold the yolks into the whites. The residual heat should cook the whites through and leave the yolks soft. This is kind of like scrambling an over easy egg.
• Sprinkle with herbs, if desired.

TROUT TOAST WITH SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Crack eggs into a medium bowl and add 3/4 tsp. salt. Whisk until no streaks remain.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium. As soon as foaming subsides, add 2 slices of bread and cook until golden brown underneath, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plates, cooked side up. Repeat with another 2 Tbsp. butter and remaining 2 slices of bread. Season toast with salt. Wipe out skillet and let it cool 3 minutes.
• Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in reserved skillet over medium-low. Once butter is foaming, cook egg mixture, stirring with a heatproof rubber spatula in broad sweeping motions, until some curds begin to form but eggs are still runny, about 2 minutes. Stir in crème fraîche and cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are barely set, about 1 minute.
• Spoon eggs over toast and top with trout. Finely grate lemon zest from one of the lemon halves over trout, then squeeze juice over toast. Season with pepper; scatter scallions and dill on top.
• Squeeze juice from remaining lemon half into a medium bowl. Add arugula and drizzle with oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Mound alongside toasts.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk the eggs until the yolks and the whites are cohesive and light yellow.
• Add the butter to a nonstick pan and heat over medium-low heat. When the butter is melted, add the eggs and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue moving the eggs with a rubber spatula; after a few minutes, some curds will start forming. Keep stirring and scraping the pan until the eggs come together, are creamy and look almost like a custard. This process can take between 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from heat. Season with salt.
• To serve, spoon the eggs onto the toast. Top with freshly ground black pepper.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS AND TOASTED-RYE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir 4 tablespoons butter until smooth. On a clean work surface, lightly roll a bread slice with a rolling pin until it's 1/8 inch thick. Brush both sides with butter and fit into a 4-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Use a paring knife to trim edges flush with pan, then season with salt. Repeat with remaining bread. Transfer pans to a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crisp and golden around edges, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely, then remove from pans.
• Whisk together eggs, milk, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat a large nonstick skillet over low. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then add egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until just set into soft curds, about 15 minutes.
• Spoon eggs into tart shells, sprinkle with pepper, and serve, topped with bacon and sprouts.
