The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science

  1.  Combine the eggs,   salt,   and milk    in  a   medium  bowl    and

    whisk until homogeneous and frothy, about 1 minute.
    Allow to rest at room temperature for at least 15 minutes.
    The eggs should darken in color significantly.



  2. Melt the butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over
    medium-high heat, swirling the pan as it melts to coat
    evenly. Rewhisk the eggs until they are foamy, then
    transfer to the skillet and cook, slowly scraping the
    bottom and sides of the pan with a silicone spatula as the
    eggs solidify. Then continue to cook, scraping and
    folding constantly, until the eggs have formed solid,
    moist curds and no liquid egg remains, about 2 minutes
    (the eggs should still appear slightly underdone).
    Immediately transfer to a plate and serve.
