I love eggs. Fried, in an omelette, sunny side up, deviled. Gimme!
At my local Sam’s club the organic name brand eggs were $2 cheaper than the white ones for 18ct which is insane to me.
I'm gonna be real I'm not a fan. I like eggs in fried rice, and as a baking ingredient, but by themselves? I'll pass
Yea i have texture issues with eggs that aren’t scrambled and seasoned, it’s just too rubbery feeling and isn’t my favourite flavour on its own
Almost everyone overcooks eggs. The whites should be silky, and the yellows creamy. If the white is rubbery or the yellow chalky, then it's like an overcooked steak. Like yeah, technically you can eat it, but it's not the best form it can take.
That's actually how I like it. I can't stand liquid yolk, love it when solid.
I enjoy an over hard egg sometimes. I don't like gooey eggs, especially when the whites are still raw.
But a liquid yolk doesn't necessarily mean raw. Cooked yolk should be thicker and has a great egg flavor. Hard yolks begin to taste bitter from the sulfur dissolving out. I recently learned I had been sleeping on soft boiled eggs.
The key is that yolks and whites cook at different temperatures. That's why if you want perfect hard boiled eggs, you need to put them into boiling water (or sous vide if you're bougie, which if you're able to afford eggs...) for 8-10 minutes. That's all it should take. Drop them into an ice bath and then enjoy.
I boil them for about 15 minutes I think. Been a while since I made them. Why an ice bath? Just run under cold water while peeling.
I don't mean to imply you need to burn the fucker to cook it. I've eaten it all types of ways. I just hate liquid yolk. If I pop one the yolk runs all over and just ruins the dish for me.
You know a fried rice recipe with eggs? Eating boiled eggs is getting tiring.
Oh that’s like every fried rice recipe
I don’t think I’ve had fried rice without eggs before. Isn’t that one of the core ingredients?
It is yes I believe it's second only to rice.
That's how I always made them, but I don't know that my recipe is any sort of authentic.

I fucking love eggs.
Miss my soft boiled and marinated ramen eggs. 🫶
I like my eggs in the hole
I generally wait until they're out of the hole
I never really liked eggs.
Until my wife came home with a bunch of chickens.
Now I love eggs. And I have far more than I know what to do with, so we've been gifting a lot of eggs.
Get chickens, or better yet, some ducks. If you can't keep them yourself for some reason, then find a local farm.
Oh this....is this why those Congo kids ate bats this week?
Look, if you're thinking... "Hmmm look at those very delicious looking bats over there", start a go fund me, I'll personally will ask Costco to ship you fried chicken on a regular basis. Leave the bats alone!
