My favorite way to scramble eggs, which makes scrambled egg snobs unreasonably angry, is to crack all the eggs into a frying pan, like I'm going to fry them, but then start gently scrambling the whites without breaking the yolks. When they are fully set I break the yolks and stir them around to coat the scrambled whites and immediately plate them. Done with pastured eggs with dark orange yolks it's very visually striking and flavorful.

That is interesting and clever, I need to try it.
How to do it yourself at home:
...periodic eggs were placed alternatively in boiling water (Th = 100 °C) for th = 2 min and water at Tc = 30 °C for tc = 2 min, for a total cooking time of 32 minutes, which corresponds to the repetition of the hot and cold cycles for a total of N = 8 times. In the case of periodic eggs, a bowl filled with water kept at 30 °C was used for the cold cooking cycle.
I don't think I'm going to spend 32 minutes to get an improvement in boiled egg quality, so this is not for me. Cool idea, though!
Wow, that truly is a wonderful result! I'm fine with soft-boiled though.
funny, this seems similar to how Gordon Ramsey demonstrates "perfect scrambled eggs" in a youtube video I once saw. He basically just pulls the eggs off of the fire every 15 seconds or so.
