Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Why is it better to cook eggs on low heat?
A: Low heat prevents overcooking and keeps the proteins from becoming rubbery, resulting in creamier eggs.

Q: Can I use water instead of milk?
A: Yes, water creates steam and can make eggs fluffier, though it won’t add richness like milk or cream.

Q: Why whisk so much?
A: Whisking incorporates air, which gives your scrambled eggs a lighter texture.

Q: Can I prep the eggs ahead of time?
A: You can whisk and refrigerate the egg mixture for a few hours, but for best results, cook immediately after whisking.
