Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why do my scrambled eggs always turn out rubbery?
A: You're likely cooking them on heat that's too high. Low and slow is the secret to tender, custardy eggs.

Q: Should I add milk or not?
A: It’s a matter of preference. A splash of milk or cream adds richness, but too much can dilute flavor and water down the texture.

Q: Can I make scrambled eggs ahead of time?
A: Scrambled eggs are best fresh, but if needed, they can be made ahead and gently reheated. Avoid microwaving if you can—it tends to overcook them.

Q: How do restaurants get their eggs so fluffy?
A: Many use a combination of pre-whisked eggs, butter, low heat, and constant motion—just like this method.
