Should I Add Liquid to My Eggs? How to Make the Perfect Scrambled Eggs!

  • Should I add liquid to my eggs? That's a question I've wondered about a lot since I've gotten so many comments about adding milk to scrambled eggs or adding water to eggs. So many people say that adding liquid to scrambled eggs makes them fluffier or moister, so I decided to test it out in this video for perfect griddle scrambled eggs.
    I started with 4 different bowls, each with 2 eggs. Then, I added 1 tablespoon of water to one of the bowls, 1 tablespoon of milk to another, and 1 tablespoon of heavy cream to another bowl. For the last bowl, I didn't add any liquid to the eggs, but instead I used a bit more butter when I put the scrambled eggs on the griddle.
    What were the results? How do you get the best griddle eggs? Should you add liquid to eggs before cooking them? Watch to find out!

    Newbie here and so happy I saw this video. I haven't used my griddle as the back yard is a construction zone... but the first meal I plan on doing is breakfast. I have eggs every morning. I mix one egg, either water or milk, a little butter and egg whites then beat until I see plenty of bubbles. The more bubbles the more fluffy I found through trial and error. So the only change I will need to how I cook my scrambled eggs on my new flat top, is frying them in butter on the griddle in addition to the butter in my egg mixture.

    Finally, well enough to get back on here. COVID with flu hit the homestead hard and lasted for several weeks for my bride and I. Could not even begin to watch a video or a huge headache blasted in. As to eggs, my kids like the butter and milk combo, NEVER water. When making an omelet, then no milk but the butter landing pad is a must. Again, your teaching of the temp is spot on, best eggs come off the griddle when you watch the temp in the 325 range. Great to watch you guys again. Merry Christmas to all!

    You had me at moist! I love the avocado, too! (And Valentina) So for my scrambled eggs, I'm a cream & butter guy. Something I'll add to your instructions if I may is HOW you mix them. When I use a fork vs when I use a proper wire whisk makes a notable difference! A good wire whisking just before cooking aerates them, and that adds to fluffy and light scrambled eggs. It's got Lisa's seal of approval, so I'm sticking with it!

    You might consider trying the Kent Rollins method, where for each pair of eggs, he puts a tablespoon of Duke's Mayonnaise and a tablespoon of heavy whipping cream into the bowl, whisks that smooth, then cracks the eggs into it and scrambles them, before cooking in a bit of oil and a tablespoon of butter, because the mayo is fat just like the butter is. I haven't tried it, but my father is a mayo addict so I'm a tad mayo traumatized.
    I don't put anything in mine these days, but I don't see how you're cooking scrambled eggs so quickly at those low temps. I scramble a dozen eggs in a single batch for our family, and when I tried to scramble them at 325 it took like 7-10 minutes probably. If I scramble them at 375 it takes about the same length of time you're showing here and seems to do pretty well if I stay on top of them.

      Well two things to remember. 2 eggs cook a lot faster of course. I think its the size of the griddle surface that helps...Noticed the shifting of the side of the griddle....the eggs run so thin that the heat really penetrates them fast...I just told my wife that I would rather cook 4 to 6 at a time vs a big batch on the griddle...just easier to maintain on the griddle

    @carlbeaver7112 Рік тому

    I agree with most everything you've pointed out. What I would like to add, from my humble experience, is *how* the eggs are cooked is more important - well, at least once you get past thinking you have to add water, cream, etc. Butter, or oil, is all you need. Notice on your last batch (12:15) how you moved the egg. All you really want to accomplish is to present the uncooked egg to the surface and get the cooked portions up and away from the heat. The longer the egg is on the heat the tougher it becomes. Same with salt - if you like it add it afterward, otherwise it absorbs the moisture and toughens the proteins. If I see someone salt my steak before or while it's on the grille we're gonna have words and they probably won't have a lot of letters. LOL

    This is our scrambled preference for the two of us: Four eggs, big Tbsp of Kewpie Japanese mayo, SPG and cook over low to medium heat with butter in a good non-stick pan (we prefer Made In) using the folding method you prefer. For an upgrade, add self-grated Monterey Jack and medium Cheddar. Fluffy, flavorful and not overcooked.

    I have tried all those ways. My favorite way is the water with a bit more butter then you did for just the butter one. The thing I see is alot of people just over cook them. Also with my preference is whisk them for about a minute then very low temp and content stirring. If a large chunk forms it's to high of temp. It's the french stile of making a scrambled eggs. It just can't be beat for very light and fluffy.

    Fun fact: The reason people started adding liquid to eggs was just to make *more* eggs. It was a cheap way to feed more people.
    The best way to make scrambled eggs is EXACTLY the way he made them. Low heat - fold the eggs - and use a fat like butter or bacon grease ;) and DON'T overcook them. Pull them off when they are slightly runny and let the heat from the eggs finish cooking them.

    The liquid in eggs has nothing to do with their fluffiness. If you want fluffy eggs, beat them until extremely frothy. Then, when cooking, gently turn on themselves. The frothy air creates the fluffiness and the gentle turning keeps the air in the eggs making them fluffy. You are correct, so not chop or beat them when cooking.

    Depends on my mood really. I do scramble many different ways.
    One of my favorites is on buttered toast. Whip your eggs, add to a buttered sauce pan. With a whisk keep the eggs moving, do not let up until they are the creamy consistency you want. You will need to go on and off the heat until done.
    This morning was onion and mini sweet peppers. Sauté onion and peppers in butter or bacon fat. Add your eggs and cook until desired doneness. Mighty good.

    For what it's worth, here's my experience. First, I got the rich flavor covered with all sorts of fats! I add cream to my egg mixture, upwards to a 1/4 cup, and then fry/scramble/fold in melted butter and bacon fat! I also learned in cast iron that just pushing the eggs around makes them fluffier. It makes them look like those wrinkle dogs too! And never overcook the eggs!
    Finally, when I season my egg mix before cooking, the salt, pepper and garlic granules seem to sink to the bottom before I'm ready to cook, so they come out last from the bowl and into the pan! So, last Sunday, I thought I'd get clever and fix that by holding off the seasonings until they hit the griddle which worked fine except for one thing. Since everything was going so fast, I FORGOT TO SEASON THE DARNED EGGS! They still turned out great!

    Regarding the use of butter, freeze one ounce of butter then chop it into small bits. Add all the frozen bits of butter to the egg mixture and immediately pour the mixture onto the griddle or into a pan. Cook the eggs to the desired level of doneness. You will find them to be smooth and silky in texture and flavor.

    I'd say a sailor who worked in the galley would probably know how to fix eggs. Could say I've used creme to make something I liked. I'm not consistent with eggs. I did finally kill fixing a burrito out of desperation once. The sweet creme if anything melded with the heat. Cooked good too.

    I use Ramsay's method when doing scrambled eggs on the stovetop (2/1 ratio eggs to butter pats, cooked over high but going on/off the heat, stirring/scraping constantly).

    like you said. But I'm going to say it more technical. The way you cook them, not what you add to them, makes them appear, feel fluffier. They have the same weight / mass. Moist big curds are going to feel and look fluffier than small curds. Butter is deffinately the go to, although, I prefer Ghee, that liguid gold.

    My griddle is 4 days old. Cooked 3 times so far. Just cooked scrambled eggs, no liquid, butter on griddle. The butter DID brown a bit. I "think" I was about 320-335. My eggs were good, a bit greasy...maybe too much butter? Also, they looked dirty. Am I not cleaning my flat top well enough? Was it the butter? My eggs don't do that in a skillet if the butter is browning. Any help is appreciated!

    This test is imperfect because your eggs were handled on the grill a lot less than the other eggs and the other eggs got drier as they got colder since you made them first.

    My method is essentially identical to yours, on the griddle or in the pan. I do think I probably froth them just a tad more, and I usually have 1/2-3/4 tablespoon of butter. My wife absolutely loves my eggs, but then she’ll try to make them with Pam or just a 1/2 teaspoon of butter, and the beat them up in the pan, and wonder why they don’t turn out. You’ve got to be patient with eggs, froth them, butter them, and fold them…never beat or chop in the pan yuck😢

    Water? No. Who wants watered down eggs? I used to add milk to mine, but then I got a clue. Someone suggested butter and oil was the way to do it. I ignored them completely. For years I have made my scrambled eggs in a cast iron skillet or on the griddle with just butter. My wife loved them. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One thing my mother did was to mix in a touch of mayonnaise - on the plate, not during cooking. We loved them this way when we were growing up. The first time I made scrambled eggs for my wife, I suggested this to her. She was skeptical. I said Just try it. I'll wait. If you don't like it, you can have mine and I'll eat yours. So she tried it. She refused to eat her scrambled eggs any other way after that. It has to be Hellmans though, that's very important. Whatever you do, do not use Miracle Whip!
