Scrambled eggs with truffles

"This is a light and still very tasty dish. It must be freshly prepared, but since the actual cooking only takes 5 minutes, it can be served as a nice post-theater supper. (The time-consuming part is heating the waterbath to a boil. Turn it on immediately upon your return back home from the theater.)"
