On the internet, dozens of recipes can be found for preparing delicious scrambled eggs. However, we're about to share a secret that can make them even better.
It's beneficial to add a few drops of lemon juice to achieve this light structure. Surprised?
There's no need to be, as when you sprinkle egg white with juice, it prevents heavy clotting, and the dish preserves its velvety texture. However, take care not to add too much juice because it can alter the taste of the eggs.
Best served with bacon or ham and topped with chopped parsley or chives, scrambled eggs are a tasty delight. If you prefer a bit of heat in your food, spice up your breakfast eggs with Tabasco sauce or cayenne pepper. Besides, scrambled eggs pair wonderfully with tomatoes - you can prepare them in a separate pan or cook them together with the eggs.
