Tips From Easy Recipes
- Substitute milk if preferred, instead of water. The extra fluid helps keep the texture smooth and the scrambled eggs light. Otherwise the result it too dense and hard. Scrambled eggs are cooked in a small frypan or skillet the same way - with the addition of some fluid
- Always cover food being microwaved as the molecules become agitated and food will splatter and eggs especially will explode. The lid helps reduce the mess while cooking.
- I only ever use inert porcelain or ceramic material for microwave cooking and NEVER plastic ware. You can see I use an upturned plate.
- Have on hand some dried chives or a bag of frozen shredded cheese. You'll use these ingredients to cook as they're versatile and add depth of flavor.
