First question:

How do you prepare scrambled eggs?


Scrambled eggs are very simple to prepare. The first thing you want to do is whisk the eggs. That way you have an even texture and color. Crack two eggs into a small bowl and with a fork, whisk until the yolks are completely blended with the egg whites. In a small frying pan, melt enough butter to completely cover the bottom and sides of the frying pan. I’ve found that heating the pan on a medium high setting works the best. Pour the whisked eggs into the hot frying pan. Eggs cook very fast and overcooked eggs are not the best thing to consume, unless that is your preference. For soft scrambled, as soon as you pour the eggs into the hot frying pan, remove the pan from the hot surface onto different burner after about 30-45 seconds. While on the unheated surface, gently stir the eggs with a spatula until desired consistency, usually about a minute or so.

This is with an electric stove in mind, so note that the timing might slightly differ with a gas stovetop.

That works after you've done it a few times. :)
