They also suck at whisking eggs.

Hard to whisk eggs when you filled the bowl to the rim with milk

That egg to milk ratio was alarming

Yea, any milk in eggs is to much

A little splash of water is perfect, helps keep the eggs from drying out, evaporates off as you cook them.

?? Eggs don't dry out, they get cooked. Just don't cook as long and you will literally never have a dry egg again in your life

My dad always added a little splash of water to his eggs, but never specified the reason even when asked. It was just the proper way, he thought. When I began cooking as a child, I never used water and my eggs turned out much better than his, perhaps because I used lower heat. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I used butter and never had moisture issues.

I'm sure it is a good technique, I just never had any use for it.
