How to stir fry eggs for the best taste

To make scrambled eggs fresh, tender, and delicious, the key lies in controlling the heat, seasoning techniques, and ingredient combinations.

When frying eggs, the oil temperature should not be too high. After heating over medium heat, pour in the egg mixture and stir fry quickly to avoid prolonged high temperatures causing the eggs to age. Adding a small amount of water or milk to the egg mixture can enhance its tender and smooth texture. Generally, one egg can be paired with a small spoonful of liquid. Seasoning should be simple, just a little salt or soy sauce is needed. Adding salt too early can cause the eggs to dehydrate and harden. It is recommended to season when the egg mixture is semi solidified. In terms of ingredient selection, common ingredients such as scallions, tomatoes, and shrimp can enrich the flavor, but attention should be paid to ingredient preparation, such as frying tomatoes until soft before mixing with egg mixture. Using a non stick pan and keeping the cookware clean can prevent eggs from sticking to the bottom or producing a burnt smell. In special circumstances, if you pursue a fluffy texture, you can use the egg separation method to mix the egg yolk and egg white separately, which is suitable for making Western style scrambled eggs. For people who are allergic to eggs or require a low cholesterol diet, tofu flakes can be used as a substitute for some eggs, but cooking time needs to be adjusted. Regardless of the method, sprinkling a little pepper or sesame oil before serving can further enhance the flavor level.

It is recommended to use fresh eggs in daily cooking, and it is easier to mix them evenly after refrigerating and warming the eggs. Serve with whole wheat bread or mixed grain Congee to balance nutrition intake. Pay attention to controlling the amount of oil used, avoiding repeated frying at high temperatures, and reducing oil intake while preserving the nutritional value of eggs. If leftovers need to be stored, they should be refrigerated and consumed within 24 hours. Avoid overcooking when reheating.
