THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl until the mixture is homogenous.
• Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the egg mixture, then increase the heat to medium-high. Stir with a rubber spatula until curds begin to form. Lower the heat to low and add the creme fraiche and chives. Stir until the creme fraiche is fully incorporated and the eggs are just set.
• Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.

PERFECT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
• TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
• Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
• Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
• Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.
