Extra Tips When Making Scrambled Eggs

1. Spend No Less Than a Minute Beating Your Eggs

The longer you beat the eggs, the fluffier they’ll get, so beat them for no less than two minutes. And if you can, use an automatic food mixer.

Pro Tip: Separate the whites and the yolk, beat them separately, and then mix them together. It makes the whites super fluffy this way.

2. Use a Nonstick Skillet Pan

Always use a nonstick pan when frying eggs. Otherwise, you might end up burning a good quarter of your meal. Also, regular pans are hard to clean.

3. Experiment With Seasonings and Spices

See which seasonings or spices would best bring out the flavor of your scrambled eggs. Aside from salt and pepper of course.

Note: You can use any seasoning or spice you want.

4. Cook Over Low Heat

Cooking over low heat fries the scrambled eggs evenly. No one likes eggs that are black and charred on the outside but soft and raw on the inside.

5. Cook With a Silicone Spatula

When making scrambled eggs, ditch the wooden/stainless spatulas and opt for silicone ones. The eggs don’t stick to silicone, so they’re much easier to flip.

What better way to see how to cook the perfect scrambled eggs than see it from Gordon Ramsay himself. Check it out in this video from WatchTheDaily:

Overall, the key to perfecting how to make scrambled eggs is experimentation. Don’t be afraid to try different cooking techniques you feel would make the eggs fluff softer. You’ll be surprised by how fluffy your eggs will get if you choose to beat it a few extra seconds or so.

Also, remember that spices can really bring out the eggs’ flavors. Try seasoning your scrambled eggs with salt, pepper, chives, thyme, or hot sauce, among other options.
