Overcooking your scrambled eggs

Eggs are a lovely, delectable food, at least when cooked to perfection. If you make a mistake, such as overcooking your eggs, you might as well eat flavorless rubber. The key is not to overcook your eggs, as this may result in the egg white cooking faster than the yolk.

Reduce the temperature to medium. That's all there is to it. Of course, the same logic should apply when making scrambled eggs. Though it is critical to thoroughly cook your scrambled eggs, turning the heat up too high may result in eggs that are either dry or cooked too quickly. Furthermore, if the heat is too high, it is more difficult to control how the eggs cook because they may cook too quickly (via Well+Good). You want your eggs to cook evenly, which is difficult to do when the heat is high. Maybe you're hungry and want some eggs, but there's no reason to rush a process that doesn't take long.
