Your morning eggs, how do you like them?

[Wayne02]

Fried (over medium, hard, runny), scrambled, hard boiled, poached?

Do you like scrambles, omelets, crepes?

How do you prepare your eggs, got any favorite recipes?


I'm a terribly boring 'cook' at home and I only fry them, scramble, or poach, but have never made any type or scramble or omelets or the like.


My weakness is the eggs Benedict (over Canadian bacon and English muffin) from the local cafe, man is it good, particularly their eggs Benedict over smoked salmon. Yes, it is a $1 more then the other egg breakfasts but it's worth it.

I've since tried the eggs benedict at other restaurants over the years and none compare. Eggs benedict lives and dies based on the sauce, and I have this fantasy that the local cafe makes its own sauce because it is so good, but it probably really just comes from a can. I have not asked the cook because I don't want to ruin the dream.

Scambled, NOT runny - and no contaminations PLEASE!

Unfortunately, thanks to medical "science" and all the wonderful new recommendations, I only get them 1x/week.

I had an old friend who lived into his early-90s and he ate eggs for breakfast every morning all his life. I doubt he ever bothered to get the opinions of an MD about such matters. (I know that doesn't mean I can get away with it... )

Hard as a rock LOL

Omelots.

Ever notice how breakfast always tastes better when someone else makes it for you?

Over easy or sunny side up if and when I eat eggs for me but if I'm wanting to raise my cholesteral levels I push the eggs aside and go for the biscit's and gravy!

Over easy with 2 slices of buttered toast, not burnt please, hash browns with onions, 6 slices of crisp bacon, cup of coffee with sugar and cream, and a glass of cold tomato juice.

We now use an egg cooker that works great for soft, hard, poached. No more broken yokes and no grease. Have our own chickens and get anywhere from 4 to 8 eggs per day. I eat at least 2 per day and 3 on the weekends.

My favorte is Crab Benedict which has ham instead of the canandian bacon. Lots of crab on top, lots. Just cannot be beat.

First I cook some sliced mushrooms in butter, any type mushrooms will do. I set them aside.

I fry some bacon, about a half pound, and set that aside.

Next I take a medium sized potato and dice it. That goes into the frying pan. Next I add some diced onion.

I take four jumbo eggs and whip them. When the potato and onion are cooked to my satisfaction, I pour on the eggs. I immediately add the mushrooms, crumpled bacon, grated Romano cheese. and Konriko Creole Seasoning. After the eggs have started to cook, I fold them over, finish cooking on both sides. When it is finished, it looks like a big egg taco.

The eggs, plus the rest of the bacon, plus two slices of lightly toasted sour dough french bread with butter and a big glass of orange juice is my Saturday morning breakfast. I'm not hungry for the rest of the day.

Over easy or scrambled, depends on the day I reckon.

No way to can Hollandaise. There are some powdered mixes, but they are vile.

Ask the cook, he'll tell you straight up he makes his own Hollandaise, I'll bet you a fiver.

Everybody thinks it's a really difficult sauce, but if you follow a few rules of control, it's easy. Many moons ago, I spent over 12 years in the culinary trenches. Hollandaise and mayonnaise are the first emulsified sauces I learned.

I'll take 1/3 of that or Just fried with crispy whites and pork of some sort,grits and biscuits.

I don't eat eggs, unless they are deviled or in potato salad.

Potato salad sandwiches are pretty good for breakfast- my father turned me onto them. Be sure to add lots of paprika and black pepper!

That's my kind of breakfast!

I just have a mini bagel with cream cheese every morning, though. I can't do much of anything before a couple of cups of coffee.

juevos rancheros. but only from the restaurant I grew up with, Jerry's in Hemet, CA. No other place, foreign or domestic can match their excellence. If you are ever in Hemet (which leads me to ask: why are you in Hemet, CA) definitely hit this place up.

 

[Forester]

Over easy with toast, generally. Bacon too, if there is any.

Someone here gave a scrambled egg and shredded spam idea recently that I have had several times. Yum. ;D

Eggs are good for you! I eat about half a dozen eggs a day....

Only the whites!

Mostly fried. Good protein, few calories.. and you get rid of all the horrid things in the yolk.

.....I like my egg over gentle as the tear drops in a mother's eye as toward the chair her wayward son is slowly led....and with a touch of a proper tobasco style sauce...

IF the egg is done right, I can put up with almost anything else that comes with it...

And the chickens that laid them, by the looks of that body!
