Soft Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon and Avocado

1. 1

   Crack the eggs into a bowl.

2. 2

   Add the cream and whisk until the eggs look foamy and light.

3. 3

   Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.

4. 4

   Melt the butter until it foams; then turn the heat down to low and slowly pour in the eggs.

5. 5

   Using a heat-resistant rubber spatula, slowly stir the eggs from the outside of the pan to the center.

6. 6

   Once the eggs begin to set, stirring slowly will create large, cloudlike curds.

7. 7

   This process takes about 10 minutes.

8. 8

   It sounds easy, but perfect scrambled eggs that are soft and custardlike with no brown color are the sign of a really good cook.

9. 9

   Season the eggs with a few cranks of black pepper and good salt, like fleur de sel.

    I like serving these with a few slices of avocado and smoked salmon, maybe a little chopped fresh chives.

    Once you perfect these, youll never order eggs at a diner again.
