boy, jimmy.. quite the inquiring mind...
ummm.. I like my eggs over easy on top of a fluffy pancake with plenty of butter.
Second favorite is the fried egg sandwich.
 
Scrambled with cheese.
 
Soft boiled with runny yolk and a fair shake of salt
 
Made by others: Eggs Benedict.

When I'm making them: Lightly Scrambled with a tablespoon or so of milk, a drop of vanilla, a dash of white pepper, and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper.
 
A truly Smep't egg is second to none.

Of course with a good pinch of salt...
 
Now I have to go make myself some eggs and I didn't even finish my diner yet!
Btw, I am eating Goulash and it tastes Gooood!
 
Goulash...mmm that's ok i suppose . I had egg in my dinner as well tonight. Egg and curry. Gonna be popular tomorrow.
 
Not IN my diner, the eggs are for dessert!

Eggs benedict is a poached egg over Canadian bacon on an English muffin and the whole thing is covered with Hollandasie sauce. Yummy.

By the way, did you hear about the guy who flew clear to Alaska for Eggs Benedict because he heard there was "No place like Nome for the Hollandaise."

WOW, Evo! You and IVAN are related in the eggs department! I LOVE Eggs Benedict! If not available, poached with butter, salt and pecker (pepper ), with toast.

OK, BLUE_CHIP, I'll bite:wink:... What's a Smep't egg? :wink:

I likes 'em RAW.



















with a dash of cinammon and a sprinkle-doo of curry
 
  • #19
lol raw eggs... . It appears i like eggs simple unlike everyone else. Everytime i try to make something elaborate eg. omelete it ends up on the floor or in pieces across the cooker [b(] so i am pretty limited to what i can make egg-wise

I love mine omeletted with lots of fresh oysters, flour and a good dash of salt and pepper. Topped with onion sprigs and parsley. Then served with a small saucer of light soya sauce as a dip.

I could easily down 4 plates of these.

A smep't egg is an egg with a tangible yet indefinable sense of reality. such a state can be achieved when the said egg is merely held when one is in a smep't state.

I almost forgot about fluffy omelettes. Where you separate the eggs first, then you whip the whites with a pinch of salt until they're stiff, fold in the yolks, a little milk, (and again I use a drop of vanilla and some white pepper). Pour the mixture into a frying pan and put on the cover. cook until the bottom of the omelette is lightly browned (the top steams while the bottom is frying) fold in some cheese and vegetables. I haven't taken the time to make one in years because they are a bit of trouble, but they are also big, fluffy and yummy.

I like them as part of a chocolate cake!

Ok, that's cheating.

I like a cheese omelette with salsa. I tried this for the first time about 5 years ago. I thought I invented it! Why hadn't anyone told me about it before? All the wasted years of omelettes without salsa .

Plain soft boiled eggs with a spoon is still the best..

yey Monique likes eggs simply done as well. I could eat a million fried eggs. Then i would die of grease. [b(]
 
  • #28
0ver easy and runny. nothing is better than mopping up yoke with buttered toast!
 
  • #29
Having lived in the south for quite a while, I will admit to loving fried eggs with runny yolks served with grits(when made right, they are WONDERFUL) and sausage. Of course with hot sauce.

And I agree with Monique, soft boiled eggs with salt and slivers of fresh baked bread to dip. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm.
