EGG POLL *** EGG POLL *** EGG POLL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EGGS ARE SO GOOD HOW DID THEY GET SO GOOD OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I go with over-easy, although "basted" is nice (where you spoon some of the hot oil/butter onto the top of the egg rather than flipping it.

i voted poached but I really like when they barely cook and make a sauce for carbonara

Deviled. I'm just saying. See also: that thread about foods u will eat all of.

JAQ I DEVILLED 8 EGGS (16 PCS) LAST WEEKEND AND ATE ALOMST ALL OF THEM.

HOW I CAN CHOOSE?? NOOOOO POLL BRAKES HAERT

Laurel, there is an "Any" option. This is correct.

where oh where can i get deviled eggs for ma lunch 2day????

I voted deviled, but I have a crazy fondness for soft-boiled eggs on toast, too. MMMMM, eggs.

Poached>soft boiled>sunny side up>

I voted Scrambled. Thinking about it though, maybe I shoulda voted Omlette. I mean, it's effing classic.
Close race between those two.

Mind you, I'd kill for a good fried egg sarnie right now.

I said hard-boiled in haste.

I'm going to make some deviled eggs this weekend.

I always liked this notion:

The toque (chef's hat) dates back to the 16th century when hats were common in many trades. Different heights of hats indicate rank within a kitchen. The symbolism of the 100 folds of the toque are said to represent that many different ways a chef knows to cook an egg.

over hard, w/ special mention to hard boiled w/ saltwater on passover.

eating right now - over hard w/melted cheddar hot sauce bacon avacado

ALWAYS

during my brief bout of veganism even more than the majesty and mystery of cheese i missed eggs.

OVER EASY OR AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM "DIPPIN EGGS"

over easy is what i eat most. but i would not want to live without egg salad, scrambled eggs, poached eggs, omelets, deviled eggs... so hungry right now.

i voted quiche but i want that platter of eggs with avocado. yum yum

Not At All

omelette!

oh good lord deviled eggs i can feel myself get fatter as i eat egg after egg after egg and i love them and myself

Not At All

yeah bro

people i sort of learned something today but maybe not because wtf does this even look like? GIS not exactly helping

Shirred eggs are prepared as a broiled or baked egg dish. Eggs are placed in small buttered dishes referred to as ramekins and broiled until the white is set, but the yolk remains liquid. The eggs may also be baked, but the cooking time is longer and the eggs may become tough and rubbery if cooked too long. Variations of the basic shirred egg may include the addition of herbs, cheese, and/or cream.

ramekins

caviar?

shirred egg instructions:

1 crack an egg into a ceramic dish
2 bake
3 serve in same ceramic dish

its like a fried egg, except it's baked, often w/some other stuff in the same dish.

omelette, when done right is just like a pillowy-soft perfect thing.

burrito and devilled tie for 2nd

'up' is American for 'fried', yes?

yah aka sunny side up.

BUT A LOT OF AMERICAN DO JUST SAY "FRIED" SO...

Gyro omellette from the Fleetwood Diner in Ann Arbor, MI

No Scotch egg, no credibility.

I am very happy "Pickled" made the list, although I voted for "Any".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmPwL1YulMA

what the hell ilx ate my egg post

jergins, those white/blue round casserole things I left at yr house that had flan in them? Those are XL ramekins.

I made pickled eggs last year! 2 dozen and they were good! Like deviled eggs in the shell sort of.

which reminds me: flan and custard and all other creamy eggy puddings also win. I should have voted ANY and ALWAYS.

boiled medium or over-medium eggs aw yeah with some avocado and some salsa

I spent years perfecting my keen skills at fryinging a perfect, delicious over-easy/medium egg. The white is crispy and yum but tender in the middle, and the yolk is wonderful hot fondue pot of viscous sunny cholesterol yum. I am so proud of this skill, my perfect egg frying. Anyone can make over hard.

I also make quite good scrambled eggs, ouefs brioches (sp?) or Denny's (regular) style. The key is to stir in some milk, and to love with a passion making perfect eggs.

No way in hell can I figure out this poaching thing, though.

I loved when I worked in a diner and people would ask for "the two eggs any style," as though that were its title.

ill take the soup of the day

scrabbled

Also in my year of the egg: slow-roasted eggs, held at 250 F for 18 hours until the whites turned tan. They tasted like pretzels.

secret to poaching: lots vinegar in water

where is "sunny side up"?

vingear, really? I just swirl the water and chuck 'em in.

i believe that's "Up"
xpost
slow-roasted eggs?? craziness! taking like the fastest cooking thing and making it the slowest cooking thing! i bet that originated with the baked beans in the ground thing, where you bury the pot of beans with hot coals. like you'd bury the eggs.

have had trouble making it work with just the lid on

Crisp?!

I tell myself, and i try to believe it honest to god i do, that this site isnt a fuckin project to pull my leg, but ye do try me in it

I use a lid when I'm doing Spanish style tortilla, but not for fried eggs.

xp lid on just never seems to cook the tops enough

Ok lets roll the sleeves up here

What do ye mean, to begin with, by terms like "egg", "lid", "cooked"

steamed =! fried u savage

better than a lid for my *Spanish style tortilla* is just putting the pan in the oven to finish it off recently tbh!

a cooked bottom, a perfectly runny yolk, and a very lightly cooked top

my best way of achieving that has been by basting eggs fried in basting fat, but more simply by flipping them over easy and then serving

In under a hot grill, just the job

things go *over* a grill u silly rabbit (just messing with u now)

eggs go *under* a broiler

as a 5 year year old I watched in horror as my grandpa who lived with us drank a raw egg for breakfast one morning

drink

I just did a spanish egg tortilla for the first time recently.. it was good, but it could've been better. I was using my gf's nonstick, I don't own one. I'll try it again.

I think the key to a wonderfully tasty tortilla is properly caramelising them onions before even thinking about adding the egg

I feel like the onions came okay.. it just didn't have the nicely textured browning on the outside.... we did the whole pan flipping thing and it was kind of a mess. You live, learn.

but I would be interested to hear about ppl's fave tortilla recipes - It's a potentially very simple and fantastic meal

well not recipe, there isn't much to it!

the idea of crisp eggs being anything but an accident

i love an over easy egg. i don't so much flip them as gently roll them over so they are little egg white blankies with the happy little uncooked yolk snuggled inside all warm

love a good over-easy

i tried the water trick in my scrambled eggs for lunch & it was def flufffier. thx egg ppl itt!!

I keep thinking about how a combo fried bread and egg yolk and bacon or sausage and brown sauce actually makes want to not die yet and live on for decades

i am going to eat some hard boiled eggs tomorrow, but not too hard, just 4 minutes in the pressure cooker imo

Eggs come out chooks' bums... you guys know that, right?

hell yeah

I like to get a nice rolling boil going. I add a bit of white wine vinegar. Then i swirl the water. Next, now this is very important, i fire up the RZ-6 for a minute to crack 320 eggs into the water.

could you be more condescending

Sorry if I'm coming across that way. Truth is I missed eggbreaker until now, and I am genuinely blown away by these machines.

though I'm also googling for a Friends episode heavy on eggs in case I missed something.

I used to work in a canteen which toured around music festivals in the UK and some days would be frying eggs for five hours at a go, I was soon able to crack eggs and drop them in the pan with one hand in three seconds, no broken yolks, and can still do this 20 years later, there is no conceivable way an egg-breaking machine would make bulk egg-breaking any easier.

but it would do 300 more per minute. I am very jealous of people with the one handed egg cracking skill.

who needs 300 per minute except a large factory who have these things anyway?

Mine jammed up and gave me a PC Load Letter error

I think you are an egg-breaking machine

should put it on my CV, maybe that's what's missing

maybe leave it off your application for a supervisory role at the House of Fabergé

Sitting thrumming through ten years in of interviews until someone finally says "well you know you cant make an omel-IBREAKEGGS

I needed to break some for dinner today and did a speed test, sorry to report it takes me a whole 6 seconds now, and one yolk was broken out of five, stupid arthritic finger doesn't help.

and what was the speed on putting them back together?

Would probably vote "Over Easy" for combination of taste, texture and easiness factor. Momofuku Chili Crunch oil is my new favorite egg topping.

Breaking eggs one of them tasks where if you think about it too much you probably will break the yolk. Once I broke 2 in a row and was loudly swearing at the eggs like it was their fault. I stubbornly put the broken ones in the dog bowl until I got it right 3rd time lucky. It was pathetic behaviour but at least the dog won.

we all had dippy eggs for lunch today

This just caused me to remember my name for scrambled eggs when I was very, very young was "puke eggs".

Luckily, I got over that.
