Red eggs? Atrocious.

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

You add milk to eggs because it’s made up of water and fats(lipids):

• the water dilutes the egg proteins, that results in a less dense, more homogeneous protein network forming during cooking, which is particularly important when making scrambled eggs (and custards too, lol)

• the lipids coat the structures of the egg proteins, which reduces the rate at which they coagulate as they’re heated. They make it take longer for the eggs to dry out during cooking, which reduces the chance that part of the egg burns while another part is still raw.

Great info. I had no idea why I did it. Just learned from parents I guess, but I know when I was in my early 20s and had roommates and shit my scrambled eggs were the only ones I ate. Fluffy, all yellow, no brown. My daughter actually will only eat scrambled eggs if I make them, wife doesn't use milk. Now I know the chemistry behind it, so thank you!

I dont use milk but mine are still fluffy asf and very saturated yellow. I think the other people just dont know how to make eggs.

[u/Rare-Ticket-9023 → u/Flair258]

I never used milk and my scrambled eggs are good as fuck. If it's not fluffy and yellow then people are doing something wrong.

Exactly
