One egg or two?

[Aruka]

I don't always eat eggs.. but when I do they are "over hard"!

Runny eggs and especially runny yoke is just absolutely disgusting. Do you feel me?
Seriously.. who likes runny yokes???

I can eat a tray of deviled eggs all by myself but runny yoke.. I will vomit.

I love runny yokes but I can totally understand not liking them. I dated a French girl years ago and I'm not sure if it was exclusive to her family or if it is just generally a French/Euro thing but the way they served eggs...let's just say if you think runny yokes are gross, try runny whites

As long as we are speaking about eggs, yesterday morning I had a 3 egg omelette with bacon, cheese, spinach, mushrooms, and avocado, with home fries and buttered rye toast, at a diner (Hot'n Tot) which has been there since the 1940s on PCH in Lomita (near the South Bay region of LA County), with 3 of my best friends in life. Eggs don't get any better than that. https://www.thehotntot.com/

That would be a deal breaker fo sho... fo sho!! Runny whites is way more gross than runny yoke.

When you drink as much as I do you don't really worry about cholesterol or what the doctors say. Just say'in.

well, that's fine for you but what about the rest of us....who may not drink as much as you....which is probably a minority here...but if there were, just sayin....

ah fuck, it - i'll have what he's having

soft boiled eggs are a thing

 

[waxfoot]

Two every morning, either as a Omelette, or scrambled with Kimchi mixed in w/toast.

 

[ElOgro]

Average 10/week. All kinds, no particular favorite but if I’m making them over easy.

 

[LifeOnMars]

I like two. High heat. Whites cooked. Yolk drippy.

4 to 6 depending if with meat or not

Dos, over easy.

Yes, on a two slices. Fried Egg Sando FTW.

Also over easy on Kimchi Rice Bowl, or on a burger.

Hard yolks have their place in a hard-boiled egg, egg salad, or deviled. But runny always wins in every other way.

Has anyone else here made oeufs en cocotte?

Eggs en Cocotte: An Easy (But Often Forgotten) Egg Breakfast

These individual baked eggs, known as eggs <em>en cocotte</em>, are an easy and delicious classic breakfast preparation that's too often forgotten.

so do we worry about eggs and cholesterol anymore or has that concern been debunked by the latest study?

70s era nutrition dogma. Your cholesterol numbers are largely driven by your genetics and the amount of fat tissue you carry around.

2 whipped cream and fondled

This time of year? A bed of garden-fresh cabbage and onions, sauteed in butter and a couple of eggs, sunnyside up, on top.

French Omelet is my specialty. 3 eggs, salt & Pepper and a dollop of unsalted butter. Topped with chopped chives. I do Sunny side up with crispy edges too.

I like what I think is called "half scrambled": plenty of butter, relatively high heat, then crack them in and let them set a while before scrambling, remove in time for the yolks to end up just barely runny. I like some heterogeneity, don't like it to be a consistent paste.

though more often recently i've been sauteing a bunch of chard or spinach and crack a single egg in there at the end.

no worry debunked long ago, big agra influencing "medical" research like just like big pharma and all the other multinational corps that can pay off the politicos.

Two. Yolks broken. Two slices of American Cheese. On a toasted plain bagel with ketchup.

I’ll do something similar when I scramble eggs. I’ll whip up all but one yolk before putting them in the pan. Once they are close to being done, break the last yolk, cook for a few more seconds and serve

Two eggs over medium...runny yolks good, runny whites no good. We have 9 hens out there in my Fort Knox chicken coop. Previous coops had been breached by racoons, bears...this time I said 'no more' and it's got 4 strands of 7000v electric fence wire around it. My daughter came by with her pit bull mix and first thing he did was charge hard at the chickens...of course they freaked but as soon as he hit the wire he shrieked and turned and ran away whimpering. I enjoyed watching that--now he stays 20' back. The best eggs too--orange yolks that stand up.

One of the best things, too. My grandmother used to make me soft-boiled eggs with toast and jam. Dipping that toast in the mixed up eggs was a beautiful thing. So fuckin good.
