  • This was my first time ever cooking for myself because I never really learned. This probably will be my best experience ever making eggs or even eating them in general. My brother doesn’t even like eggs but these changed his mind. I’m proud of my self. Thank you!!
  • @Monster1472580
    Just tried this method and …. I’m never going back to rubber egg land. Oh what a wonderful silky mind blowing experience. Who knew a little bit of technique could change the way I eat eggs for the rest of my life
  • Chef Frank is such an exellent teacher, I'd love to see more of him teaching the basics of cooking on the channel 😊
  • @Cncr_Cell
    I started watching this channel because of Frank, and he’s my favorite chef overall. Food always looks immaculate, recipes are simple, and he’s chill lol. I been watching him for around three years now, and he’s still the goat to me 😂😂 LET’S HEAR IT FOR FRANKKKKKK!!!!
  • @Jackpkmn
    This video gave me the idea to use a silicone spatula instead of the normal stainless steel one i normally use to cook my eggs this morning. Even tho i have a stainless steel pan. It made a huge different thank you so much ❤
  • I add my cold butter in small cubes to my eggs half way through the cooking process and by the time they are close to done I still have some small bits not completely melted so it helps them to not overcook!
  • @manuelHL93
    Just made my own version of silky creamy scrambled eggs!! I Love this Channel so much and chef frank is a master, thank you chef!!
  • @peterdurand3098
    Mmmm, butter. A Kenji trick: add a small pinch (not a handful) of salt while whisking then let sit for 10-15 minutes. (They will change color slightly) He explains the chemistry behind it. My touch is to add a tablespoon or so of heavy cream toward the end of whisking. Pepper or chopped parsley to serve.
  • @willstuart4504
    This is ÈXACTLY how I cook my butter as well. Big ol chunks nicely seasoned, silky and with a pinch of beaten egg... Yummy!! 😄
  • @joebator9858
    Chef Frank, I made scramble eggs just as you instructed, they were so creamy, tasty eggs. I will always make scramble eggs this way. Thanks!
  • @detangojet
    This was super helpful. I’ve been struggling making scrambled eggs my whole life.
  • @jm9371
    Fantastic, fun and simple recipe. This works like a champ every time and I no longer overcook eggs....
  • @deniseheins2133
    I love it, I make my eggs exactly like this, including the finishing butter. Another great video.
  • @matteblack4573
    thank u very much chef Frank. I tried it today and it was amazing!
  • @Steve157Oh
    Yup. Tried cooking them this way and they're delicious!
  • @whippy107
    I pride myself on my scrambled eggs that always (usually) turn out perfect, but I really want to try adding butter to them after cooking next time like you have done here. YUM! Thanks for the video!
  • That's almost exactly how I make my scrambled eggs. The one thing I learned is to set the eggs out for 15 minutes before whisking them. That's an excellent tip and I can't wait to try it!
  • @52dal
    I made my scrambled eggs the way you prepare yours, and they were delicious!
