Add 1 tasty ingredient to make your scrambled eggs 'super fluffy'

Dry, rubbery may soon be a thing of the past, thanks to one simple and tasty kitchen trick. It's not cream or fancy equipment. According to food writer Molly Adams on , the key to making scrambled eggs that are soft, fluffy, and full of flavour is .

"Before you give up on scrambled eggs altogether, try this simple, smart trick I have up my sleeves for making super fluffy scrambled eggs, no matter your experience behind the skillet: add ricotta," Adams wrote. This creamy addition not only transforms the texture of your , but also prevents them from drying out or becoming rubbery, a common mishap, especially when cooking for a crowd or multitasking in the kitchen.

Adams' method is straightforward and forgiving. She typically makes three eggs at a time, whisking in about 1/4 cup of whole milk ricotta.

The trick is to fully whisk the yolks and whites before folding in the ricotta. Then, it's all about cooking slowly and gently: she recommends using a nonstick pan with a knob of butter, stirring the eggs slowly over low heat until they're just set.

You won't see large curds forming, instead, what emerges is a creamy, fluffy scramble that looks and tastes luxurious.

"These eggs don't have that dry, overcooked feel," she explains. "They're smooth and rich, but also incredibly light. Buffet eggs could never."

Adams said ricotta scrambled eggs are a weeknight dinner staple in her home. For a family of four, she simply doubles the recipe, six eggs and half a cup of ricotta.

She often serves them on toast, tucked into sandwiches, or rolled up in tortillas for a quick and protein-packed meal.

To finish, she adds a bit of grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of chopped chives, bringing a hint of sharpness and freshness to the dish.

It's a method that's easy, forgiving, and perfect for cooks of all levels.

Whether you're prepping a fast dinner, making a lazy weekend breakfast, or trying to use up leftover ricotta from another dish, this egg upgrade is bound to become a go-to.
