directions

  • crack eggs into a medium size bowl and add cream of tartar. Put butter in a small pan and heat it up to medium-medium high.
  • Meanwhile, use whisk and beat eggs with the bowl at an angle for about 2 minutes. This gets the air into the eggs and make them fluffy. (Yes, your arm will get a little tired, but the finished product will be worth it.) Don't over whip. I was told this would break up the proteins AND make your arms tired. :P.
  • When butter starts to bubble and sizzle, add eggs to the pan. Let the eggs cook, undisturbed, until it starts to set (or forms a cooked bottom layer).
  • Move cooked eggs to the middle of the pan with a spatula so the uncooked eggs can spill over to ends of the pan.
  • When eggs are still pretty runny but almost all cooked, salt and pepper them to taste, then flip them to cook until desired. Some people like them a little runny, while others like them cooked all the way.
  • Enjoy!

  1. My scrambled eggs are usually pretty dry. These were fluffy and soft and my daughter (5) was thrilled. Thanks!

I live in Florida and love it here. (We could do without the lovebugs and misquito's though...) My favorite pastime is just getting out of the house and doing something; seeing a game, going for a bike ride, or just going for a walk or reading outside. (I get sloth-like if I stay indoors too long). I love Cooks Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen and buy their magazines and cookbooks often.
