Generally speaking, the best way to cook eggs is low and slow. This means you will not cook them over high heat or too quickly. Cooking eggs too quickly and on too high of heat is the easiest way to overcook your eggs, resulting in dry, rubbery eggs. Instead, take an extra minute or two to cook your eggs over low heat. They will turn out perfect, and it will be worth the extra minute of your time.
