To master the basic scrambled egg, Mark Bittman at recommends cracking eggs on a flat surface and whisking with salt and pepper until combined.

If you'd like a silkier and less eggy-tasting scramble, you can add some milk or cream to this mixture - only about one teaspoon for two eggs.

Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once foaming, pour the eggs in and begin stirring frequently, moving the pan on and off the heat to control the cooking.
