To make fluffy scrambled eggs, follow these key steps:

  1. Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk vigorously for about 1 minute until very foamy.
  2. Melt butter over low heat in a nonstick skillet until it foams.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat and pour in the eggs, then whisk the top vigorously again to create foam.
  4. Return the pan to low heat and cook slowly, letting the eggs set slightly on the bottom without stirring immediately.
  5. Use a spatula to gently push the cooked eggs from the edges toward the center, tilting the pan to distribute uncooked eggs, repeating this motion slowly to create soft folds.
  6. Remove from heat when mostly set but still slightly wet, then let residual heat finish cooking by gently folding the eggs.
  7. Season with salt, pepper, and optional garnishes like chives or cheese.

Additional tips to enhance fluffiness include adding a splash of milk, cream, or water to the eggs before whisking, cooking on low heat, and avoiding overcooking to keep them moist and light.
