    taste & texture

    Soft scrambled eggs have a mild, slightly savory flavor that is perfect for a variety of toppings. They are cooked over low heat, so they are very soft and creamy, with a slightly runny texture. The curds are small and uniform, and they are not dry or rubbery.

    The taste of soft scrambled eggs can be enhanced by adding different ingredients, such as cheese, herbs, or spices. For example, adding a little bit of cheddar cheese gives the eggs a sharp, tangy flavor. Adding a pinch of salt and pepper helps to bring out the natural flavors of the eggs.

    The texture of soft scrambled eggs is also very important. The eggs should be cooked until they are just set, but they should still be soft and creamy. If the eggs are overcooked, they will become dry and rubbery.

    directions

    1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cheese, yogurt, oat milk, salt, and pepper.
    2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
    3. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked through but still soft and creamy.
    4. Serve immediately.

    expert tips & tricks

    Here are some topping combinations that you can try with your soft scrambled eggs:

    • Avocado + toast: This is a classic combination that is always delicious.
    • Fruit + yogurt: This is a healthy and refreshing option.
    • Salsa + hot sauce: This is a spicy and flavorful combination.
    • Herbs + spices: This is a way to add some extra flavor to your eggs.

    You can also eat soft scrambled eggs on their own, or you can add them to a wrap or burrito. They are a delicious and healthy way to start your day!

    Add in some cottage cheese to make these eggs a high protein breakfast option. Scrambled Eggs with Cottage Cheese are the perfect way to get protein in.

    how to serve & store

    Make sure to serve immediately as these are best eaten fresh!

    Here are some tips for getting the perfect texture for soft scrambled eggs:

    • Use low heat. This will help to prevent the eggs from overcooking and becoming dry.
    • Stir constantly. This will help to keep the eggs from becoming lumpy.
    • Remove the eggs from the heat when they are still slightly runny. This will allow the eggs to continue cooking and become creamy as they cool.

    With a little practice, you’ll be able to make soft scrambled eggs that are perfectly cooked and delicious!
