### Step-by-Step Guide to Perfect Scrambled Eggs
**1. Whisk Eggs Thoroughly**
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy. This adds air and helps create fluffy eggs. Add milk or cream if you like them extra creamy.
**2. Preheat Your Pan**
Use a non-stick skillet and melt the butter over low to medium-low heat. The key to soft scrambled eggs is gentle heat—too hot, and they’ll cook too quickly and become dry.
**3. Cook Slowly and Stir Often**
Pour the eggs into the pan. Let them sit for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges to the center. Keep the eggs moving slowly to form soft curds.
**4. Remove from Heat Early**
When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, take the pan off the heat. The residual heat will finish cooking them without drying them out.
**5. Season and Serve**
Add salt and pepper to taste and stir gently. Top with fresh herbs, cheese, or any other favorite toppings before serving.

### Tips for Even Better Eggs
* **Use fresh eggs:** They make a difference in taste and texture.
* **Don’t overcook:** Eggs keep cooking after they leave the pan, so remove them while they’re still a bit soft.
* **Experiment with add-ins:** Cream cheese, smoked salmon, or sautéed mushrooms add wonderful flavor.
* **Use a silicone spatula:** It’s gentle on the eggs and helps create soft folds.
