Margot Harris for the Jersey JournalFluffy, soft scrambled eggs will have your family silent and satisfied at the breakfast table. There’s a small farm-to-table restaurant in downtown Manhattan that serves the most incredible scrambled eggs. When ordered, you receive a medium bowl filled to the brim with creamy, perfectly cooked, fluffy eggs. I can only image it must contain at least 6 to 8 eggs.

I enjoy my scrambled eggs with chives, so I tossed in a tablespoon for color and a hint of onion flavor. The most important thing to remember is the salt. Serve these along with you favorite sides: Bacon, sausage, hash browns, toast, etc. Perfect Scrambled Eggs with ChivesServes: 2 5 eggs ¼ tsp salt 1 Tbsp chives, minced Cooking sprayIn a bowl combine eggs, and salt, whisk until well combined and frothy (30 sec. to 1 minute).

When I had made my six circles, I ironed them to get rid of a few bumps in the plastic I felt might show through. Now lay them out like this with each ring overlapping the next: You're ready to make the center ring.
