Water will make scrambled eggs or omemlettes "fluffy". I don't like
"fluffy" in either one. I control the creaminess of scrambled eggs by the
degree of cooking, sometimes adding a knob of butter toward the end of
cooking if I want to enrich them. I prefer firm omelettes, so I add
neither water nor cream. Cream will make a less firm omelette.
