Steps:
- In medium bowl, beat eggs, chives, salt and pepper with fork or wire whisk until well mixed.
- In 10-inch skillet, heat milk and butter over medium heat just until butter melts and liquid is steaming. Pour egg mixture into skillet.*
- As mixture heats, portions of eggs will begin to set. Gently push cooked portions with metal spatula to the outside edge of skillet. Avoid stirring constantly. As more egg sets, push it to the edge as well and stack it on top of the set egg mixture already there. Cook 5 to 6 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist.

Steps:
- Over medium-high heat, melt butter in a medium-size skillet, preferably well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick.
- Beat eggs with salt, pepper and, if using, Parmesan cheese. Pour eggs into pan, swirl and turn heat to low. Using a heat-proof rubber spatula, stir eggs constantly until very loosely set and slightly runnier than you like them.
- Remove pan from heat and drizzle pesto on eggs. Off heat, give eggs one more gentle stir -- enough to finish cooking them and to distribute pesto in dark green streaks. Scatter ricotta on eggs and drizzle with more pesto if desired. Serve at once.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH RICOTTA AND CHIVES
Steps:
- Whisk the eggs, chopped chives, and 1/4 teaspoon fleur de sel in a medium bowl until well blended. Melt the butter in a heavy medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the foam subsides, add the eggs and stir with a heatproof silicone spatula until the eggs are almost cooked but still runny in parts, tilting the skillet and stirring with the spatula to allow any uncooked portion to flow underneath, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the ricotta and stir just until incorporated but clumps of cheese are still visible.
- Arrange 2 toasts or 4 baguette slices on each of 2 plates. Spoon the scrambled eggs atop the toasts. Sprinkle with more fleur de sel and freshly ground pepper. Garnish with whole chives, if desired.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FRESH RICOTTA AND CHIVES
A simple, creamy , and delicious recipe from From Bon Appétit Magazine (April 2008). Use more or less ricotta depending on your preference (I like it with less but the original recipe calls for a 1/2 cup). You can use regular ricotta, but it's even better with fresh ricotta.

Tips:
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your soft scrambled eggs will be. Use fresh ricotta cheese, chives, and eggs for the best flavor and texture.
- Cook Slowly: Cook the eggs slowly over low heat, stirring constantly. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming overcooked and rubbery.
- Don't Overcook: Overcooked eggs are tough and dry. Cook the eggs until they are just set, but still slightly runny. This will give them a soft and creamy texture.
- Season to Taste: Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Serve Immediately: Soft scrambled eggs are best served immediately. They will start to toughen up as they cool.
Conclusion:
Soft scrambled eggs with fresh ricotta and chives are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, brunch, or lunch dish. They are perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a quick weekday meal. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can enjoy a delicious and satisfying meal that is sure to please everyone at the table.
