Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tablespoon milk or cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter, or margarine

Directions

  1. Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper with fork or spoon—mixing thoroughly if a uniform yellow is preferred or mixing slightly if streaks of white and yellow are preferred.
  2. Heat fat in 8-inch skillet just hot enough to sizzle drop of water.
  3. Pour in egg mixture.
  4. Reduce heat promptly.
  5. Cook slowly, lifting from the bottom and sides as the mixture thickens.
  6. As the cooked mixture is lifted, the thin uncooked part should flow to the bottom.
  7. Avoid constant stirring.
  8. Cook until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist.
  9. 5 to 8 minutes.
