Why we love scrambled eggs
Scrambled eggs are my favorite style of cooking eggs, and the perfect accompaniment to shito. I vividly recall my first encounter with scrambled eggs at the age of 17 in Glasgow, Scotland. Armed with a buoyant spirit, a touch of makeup, and the company of an adult, my friend Maxine and I managed to sneak into a pub on a Friday night. The morning after a wild outing, Maxine whipped up a plate of scrambled eggs and toast to cure our hangovers. As I took my first bite, I was instantly captivated by the pillowy and fluffy texture. Blame it on the immense craving, but that moment marked the beginning of a lifelong fascination with scrambled eggs, forever intertwined with memories of friendship, adventure, and the undeniable satisfaction of a good meal.
