Slow-Cooked Scrambled Eggs

8 eggs

3/4 cup half-and-half

1 tsp. kosher salt

1/4 tsp. black pepper

4 Tbsp. butter

1 Tbsp. parsley, chopped

1 Tbsp. green onion, chopped

1 1/2 tsp. dill

Whisk eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper together in a bowl.  Heat 2 Tbsp. butter in a skillet over medium-low heat.  Add the eggs and allow them to cook slowly, stirring constantly, until desired doneness.  Remove from heat and add the remaining 2 Tbsp. of butter and the other ingredients.  Stir until the butter is melted and serve.

Our comments:  I think I was 8 when my Mom showed me how to make scrambled eggs.  It was the first thing I learned to cook.  I liked mine with Pace’s Picante Sauce, followed immediately with a bite of bacon.  It was the perfect starter dish, since no matter what you do, you can’t screw them up too badly.  I guess that’s why I never thought to write down a scrambled eggs recipe.  Anyway, I’ve bumped into two schools of thought when it comes to scrambled eggs: (1) the high-heat, quick-cook, big-chunk, fluffy variety and (2) the low-heat, slow-cook, even-textured, soft variety.  Both varieties have their merits, but I prefer the slow-cooked eggs.  I particularly like this recipe with some left over beef tender.
