Add the milk and whisk vigorously until fully combined and uniform.
Sprinkle in a pinch of salt and whisk again.
Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, spreading it evenly with a rubber spatula.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 30 seconds, then gently scrape across the bottom and edges of the pan with a rubber spatula. Continue scraping in different directions to prevent any bits from drying out. Fold the eggs gently as they cook to ensure even cooking.
Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist, remove the pan from heat. Avoid overcooking to keep them soft and fluffy.
Serve immediately, with a sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
