How can making great scrambled eggs help you achieve your business goals?!?!?

Antimimeticisomorphism is the opposite of the common organisational tendency (mimetic isomorphism) where companies copy successful peers, instead suggesting that organisations actively differentiate or resist copying to stand out, innovate, or avoid the pitfalls of over-imitation, especially when uncertainty is high or success is tied to unique strategies rather than standard practices.

While mimetic isomorphism (copying) seeks legitimacy through resemblance (e.g., “if they do it, it must be right”), antimimetic approaches focus on competitive advantage or distinctiveness, sometimes leading to innovation or divergence from industry norms.

Simply put, if you do what everyone else does, you will get the same results they get, which is the definition of average (also known as mediocrity).

So, to be different to get BETTER results, you have to “THINK DIFFERENT“, also known as Twisting The KUBE.

Today’s example is how to LEARN about Deliberate Practice Principles used by elite, high performance and professional athletes to win championships and medals from an Internet Food Influencer who expertly exemplifies these principles in a video that shows you how to cook great scrambled eggs.

IKR?

Who knew scrambled eggs could help you grow your business!

Watch the video and observe how EACH step is detailed meticulously (the WHAT and HOW), but MORE importantly – the WHY…

This is what makes this “DPP” worthy.

If you can do this for your staff AND clients, you will gain MASSIVE leverage in the understanding of your Value Proposition and in its execution for a WIN-WIN-WIN outcome.

Key Insights and Recommendations

• Egg Quantity:
  • Plan 2–3 eggs per person depending on whether scrambled eggs are the main dish or part of a larger breakfast spread.
  • Example: 3 eggs for a quick meal with toast and fruit; 2 eggs per person if serving multiple dishes.
• Salting Eggs Early:
  • Salt eggs 5 to 10 minutes before cooking using about 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon for 5 eggs.
  • Early salting:
    • Seasoning is more evenly distributed, avoiding salty spots on cooked eggs.
    • Salt unwinds egg proteins, altering their structure to set sooner and yield more tender eggs.
    • Eggs become slightly darker and more translucent once ready to cook.
• Adding Liquid:
  • Adding 1 tablespoon of milk (or any dairy/non-dairy alternative) for 5 eggs dilutes proteins, making eggs more tender and creamy.
  • Alternatives: half-and-half, heavy cream (richer flavor), or water (if avoiding dairy).
  • Purpose: liquid hinders tight protein bonding, preventing toughness.
• Beating Eggs:
  • Use a fork for small batches or a whisk for larger quantities.
  • Goal: thoroughly mix yolks and whites to a uniform texture without overcomplicating.
• Equipment for Cooking:
  • Use an 8-inch non-stick skillet for about 5 eggs—a size slightly smaller than the egg volume offers better heat control.
  • Butter is essential: it adds richness and contains water droplets that help gauge pan temperature via gentle bubbling.
  • Use a rubber spatula to stir and fold eggs without sticking or damaging the pan.
  • Cover with a lid or a large plate after cooking to allow residual heat to finish the eggs gently.
• Cooking Technique:
  • Start with medium heat to melt butter, then increase to medium-high to activate steam from moisture in eggs and butter, which helps puff the eggs.
  • Stir constantly but at a speed aligned with desired texture:
    • Stir quickly for softer eggs (less set).
    • Stir slowly for fully set, denser eggs.
  • When eggs no longer show runny portions when spatula passes through, turn off heat, break up clumps, then cover to finish cooking off the heat.
  • Avoid cooking eggs fully on heat to prevent overcooking and dry, spongy texture.
• Final Touches & Garnishes:
  • Eggs can be topped with a variety of flavorful condiments beyond ketchup or hot sauce, such as:
    • Chili crisp: adds heat, richness, and savoriness from fried alliums.
    • Pesto: complements eggs with basil and cheese flavors.
    • Everything bagel seasoning: adds texture and oniony-salty pops.
    • Furikake: lightly spicy and aromatic, shelf stable.
    • Harissa: floral and spicy alternative to hot sauce.

Key Conclusions

• Salting eggs early is critical for tender, well-seasoned scrambled eggs.
• Adding a small amount of liquid (milk, cream, or water) improves texture by preventing protein over-bonding.
• Pan size relative to egg volume impacts control over cooking speed and quality.
• Butter’s water content serves as a natural temperature gauge.
• Stirring speed during cooking allows customization from soft to fully set eggs.
• Finishing eggs off heat under a lid yields perfectly cooked, moist scrambled eggs without overcooking.
• Creative garnishes can enhance scrambled eggs’ flavor and appeal beyond traditional condiments.
