Boil water. Bring four inches of water in a saucepan to a simmer over medium heat. Add a few large pinches of salt to the boiling water.
Prepare beaten eggs and pour into the boiling water. Beat four eggs in a bowl. Stir the water with a spoon to create a whirlpool in the pan, and then pour in the beaten eggs. Cover and let cook for 30 seconds. Remove the lid and the eggs will be floating on the surface of the cooking water.
Remove eggs and drain. Lift the cooked eggs from the water with a slotted spoon and allow to drain. We find placing the scrambled eggs in a strainer and gently blotting with a paper towel absorbs any excess water. Place on a plate and add butter, shredded cheese, and/or some chopped fresh chives.
Believe it or not, this method works! The hot water gently heats the eggs, causing the air bubbles in the eggs to expand and creating that fluffy texture. Plus, it's virtually impossible to burn or brown them, leading to perfectly tender eggs every time. Try it yourself.
