Really hot water, vortex, crack the eggs in, wait until they look solid, get them out with a slotted spoon and dry them on kitchen towel then flop them onto toast.

People who use vinegar - how much vinegar do you use to avoid your eggs tasting of vinegar or do you actually like eggs that taste of vinegar?

I like poached eggs but remember trying the vortex thing ages back and ruining a load of good eggs. Never tried it since.

Poached eggs are a bit naff though, scrambled is where it’s at.

Scrambled>>>>>>>>>fried>poached>>>>hard boiled

Not getting into any elitest egg war here, but need to point out that a fried egg sandwich is one of life’s greatest pleasures.

Thank you and good day.

I made a fried egg for the first time in… possibly ever actually, it was to go on top of one of those linda mccartney vegetarian burgers

The only issue I have with eggs of all varieties, is the whole when do I start the toast dilemma.

I don’t want my toast done ages before the eggs, but I don’t want to have to frantically butter (and cut, if I’m having soldiers with my boiled egg) my toast before the eggs end up ruined.

#89

I find it always works fine to try and time the toast to finish shortly before the eggs are done. Then if the eggs are a bit late it’s okay, and if they’re done on time I can turn the toaster back on for just 20/30 seconds and cancel it before the toast is too done.

I heard some professional chefs poach there eggs by using cling film in boiling water. I imagine it may not be good for you but you wudn’t know unless you had seen them poaching.

i always thought cooking fried eggs was deceptively difficult

turns out i was using a shit pan. my new non-stick ceramic bad boy makes fried eggs a dream come true!!

#95

Yeah boi.

Some nice tekkers for you - do it in a decent pan with a lid. Crack the eggs in and get them frying. Then get the lid and put a fair few drops of water on the inside of it. Swirl it around a little then put the lid on the pan. This helps to seal the egg on the top and produces a better result.

Also I know you’re not supposed to because smoking points and all that but I always fry my eggs in extra-virgin olive oil. Bit naughty.

Had a super marinated ramen egg with my noodles last night.

+1 for sticking a small lid over the egg while it cooks
