cooks are guilty of. Check out their four top tips below... A Michelin-trained chef has revealed her top tips to improve your brekkie making skills.Nyesha Arrington, who appeared on Bravo TV show Top Chef, says you should always strain your eggs before cooking them – as this gives them a more pleasant texture.She told Mashed: "Scramble the eggs, and then strain them because the albumin has a higher water content to it.

So it doesn't dissolve."You really want to strain out any bits like that so you get a really smooth, beautiful texture."Gordon Ramsay said you can negatively impact the structure of your eggs if you season them before they're cooked.In a YouTube video that’s been viewed 40 million times, the celebrity chef warns home cooks not to season their eggs too early.He advised: “Start off with three eggs and don’t season it.“If you put the salt in now, it breaks down the eggs and starts turning them into something very watery.”Instead of adding salt or pepper, which messes up the consistency, the chef adds butter instead.He explained: “It’s important to put this in right at the beginning because it gives it a nice velvety finish.”Then when the eggs are cooked, Gordon uses salt, pepper and chives to give his brekkie more vibrancy.Have you been adding milk to your scrambled eggs?While many of us assume the ingredient makes for creamier results, apparently this isn’t actually the case.Italians think adding milk is a “cardinal sin” as it dilutes the flavour.
