Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- pinch of kosher salt
- ½ tablespoon butter, oil or bacon grease
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs. Add the eggs and salt to a mixing bowl and whisk together, until fully combined and lightly frothy.
- Add the eggs. In a nonstick pan: heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let the eggs cook for a few seconds without stirring. In a stainless steel pan: heat the skillet over medium heat until it's hot enough that a few water droplets dance in the pan. Add the butter to coat the bottom, then add the eggs. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and let the eggs cook for a few seconds without stirring.
- Scramble the eggs. Using a silicone or wood spatula, push the eggs across the pan to create soft curds. Continue this process of pushing and folding the eggs for about 1 to 2 minutes, until you've got big folds and the eggs are barely set, then turn off the heat. Note: the residual heat within the eggs will continue cooking them.
- Serve. Serve the eggs immediately and season with cracked black pepper.

Notes
- Storage tips: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 3 to 4 days in an airtight container. To keep them fresh, let them cool completely before storing them. When reheating, warm them in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat, adding a little water or butter to prevent them from drying out.
- Regarding the water droplet test: If you're doing the water droplet test in a stainless steel pan, you really only need a drop or two of water. If you test with too much water, you could impair the nonstick ability of the stainless steel pan as water has minerals in it, and too much remnant minerals on the pan will create a tackier surface.
