As I recall (it being around 20 years since I read her 'instructions' - I
lent the book to a friend and never got it back) she espouses the slow
method of scrambling - something with which I agree. She suggests that one
hovers over the pan, stirring constantly, using a very low heat. That way,
you end up with a 'custard with substance' rather than crumbly scrambled
eggs. Works for me! The only modification to her method that I have made is
to add a couple of drops of naturally brewed (Kikkoman) soy sauce - brings
out the flavour beautifully. Got the idea from a Kikkoman product launch I
managed to get into back in the '80s - held at the Dorchester in London,
when Mosimann was the chef there - it was his idea, and it's a good'un. Not
enough soy to flavour the eggs, just enough to enhance them. Yum.
