I hate crispy edges.
Set stovetop to medium/medium low, put butter, add eggs, and cover until the yokes are starting to firm up. Add salt and cumin and serve on whatever I feel like.

>medium heat
>melt butter
>add eggs
>cover
>wait untill all the loose liquid is gone
>dash w/ paprika/salt/pepper

literally perfect every time.

Pan nice and hot.

~1/2 inch of oil in a skillet
medium heat
a pat of butter melted in with it for flavor
cook until the whites are set
tilt the pan and spoon hot oil over the yolk to cook it through

Always butter and always on the stove. Salt pepper.

>salt and pepper

egg in

Heat on, heat off, heat on, heat off

olive oil
in

bit of salt
fresh cracked pepepr

So much oil

seriously a 1/2 inch AND spooning it over the yolk?

it's basically poaching it in oil

mmm that smells
lovely

Ok now

off the heat

1. boil it for 5 min
2. there's no 2.

>ruining the atomic structure of your food by microwaving it because you don't want to cook you egg at a lower heat

Commonly known as deep frying

oil the pan
high heat til the oil smokes
lowest heat possible
egg in
wait til its done

or the foodwishes poached egg method

salt and cumin, huh?

No, deep frying requires a very high oil temperature in the region of 350ºF, poaching is much more of a delicate process.

If you tried to get butter to 350º you're asking for a bed at the burn ward.

bad

good

high heat is better IMO, don't want the egg getting all rubbery sitting on a lukewarm pan for 10 minutes

hot pan, nice and crispy, and then serve while the whites are still tender. Splash hot oil/butter over the yolk to cook that during the process.

rub pan with butter
medium-high heat
egg
put in 1/4 Cup water around egg, cover
drop heat to medium
let it steam baste until top is solid, but yolk still runny
salt, pepper to taste
serve with toast to sop up the yolk.

Deep fried

low heat and water in the pan for firm unsinged whites

medium heat and water in the pan for crispy whites

>sop up the yolk
>ISHYGDDT

this is a tendie-tier food meme to get children to eat their eggs.

>ctrl+f "flip"

you autistic cu/ck/s wouldn't have to "le baste with butter" and do all this "add water and shove a spoon up your ass" bullshit if you would just flip your fucking egg. Sunny side up is for instawhores to put on top of the rice bowl they pretend to eat for breakfast. Glide the fucking egg to near done, just before the snottiness of the whites is gone, take it off the heat, flip it, and let the residual heat in the pan cook finish the top. Don't worry children, you can still dip your tendies into the yolk just fine.

Do people not have an egg pan? I have a small pan that is perfect for two eggs so I get perfect round even ones every time.

I put them in a pot with vinegar/salt/water on to boil, comes out good every time

D-do people really microwave their eggs..?

Low heat if you want clean eggs, low medium heat if you want crispier eggs.

Only people with mental illnesses user, or children .

With sardines and onions.

It's like you don't want your eggs to have any flavor.

>Sunny side up is for instawhores to put on top of the rice bowl they pretend to eat for breakfast.
or people who like solid whites/loose yolks

This thread isn't about flipping yolks, did you not understand that?

With some olive oil. Tastes very good.

>using oil or butter to cook eggs/bacon
>not just using a non stick pan and a cover to evenly cook the egg
>not boiling bacon in shallow water

ITT plebs whose health issues will catch up with their stupidity

Bad.

>High heat low drag.
>Oil up pan, crack egg into the pan and let it dance around.
>Add water and close the lid on that shit before it splatters.
>Egg is done in two minutes.

This nigga knows how to egg.

you seem to be lost guy

I unironically crack 2-3 eggs unable,add salt, pepper, garlic/onion powder, and torn up pieces of American cheese. If I'm feeling fancy, I'll dice up a Goya chorizo dry sausage. Scramble it all together and microwave it a minute at a time for 3 minutes, mixing in-between.

Unable>in a bowl

>chan.uk

>slide a spatula under and flip the egg over without breaking the yolk or cooking to solidity
>Instead of just putting some water in under the lid
Why?

You say that like bacon and eggs are healthy to begin with

Boiling bacon in shallow water sounds like an attempt to start a grease fire in an idiot's house

back on

You are watering down the egg.

Scrambled dry.

High heat, low oil, bit of salt. When the dogs start barking make em roll over.

FUCK YOU FAGS WHO COOK THE YOLK TO A SULFUR SOLID

SUNNY SIDE YOLKS SHOULD BE RUNNY FOR DIPPING REEEEEEEE

>With sardines and onions.
Wow, it's almost like you rather wouldn't be eating eggs at all.

you make an omelette
sunny side ups are for plebes

Veeky Forums sticky literally says that butter is not only okay but GOOD for you. Who am I supposed to believe here?

Someone not on this website.

Squish the inside of a fluffy slice of bread so that the outter crust is raised. Add egg on bread (should stay bound within bread). Season and cook for 15 or so on 350 in toaster/convential oven.

Makes a perfect cooked egg inside toast, no mess, super ez. Make 2, add cheese and ham, bam -- ez breakfest sandwich.

Super high heat, tonnes of oil.
Throw that fucker in.
Salt + pepper.
Splash some fucktackularly hot oil onto the top to get it bubbling.
Done in like twenty seconds.

the one on the right is the best one. an egg that doesn't that doesn't have some crispy parts literally doesn't have any taste.

Nailed it

Put a pan on the lowest heat, add a little butter, wait u til it's all melted and the crack the egg in. Wait until the whites have almost completely cooked and then turn off the heat. Let the yolk warm through with the heat from the pan., Check it by very gently putting your thumb on it.

Most kids I've seen don't like runny yolks.

Local chef told me that the secret is to put it in a cold pan and let it heat up with the pan. none of that pan nice and hot shit

>ruining the atomic structure of your food by microwaving it

I wouldn't microwave eggs, I only really use a microwave to reheat things but is this a real thing or bait?

butter in pan medium heat, crack egg in, pour some water in to the pan and cover
when the egg looks almost done, take the lid off and let fry for bit without the lid to get rid of extra moisture
salt and pepper on top

>food and cooking board
>he can't egg flip with pan technique alone

I thought this board was for cooking enthusiasts, not flyover grandmas. How many cans of mushroom soup did you add to the green bean casserole yesterday?

You sound like a real spicemaster

No.

scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-any-evidence-tha/

>As far as we know, microwaves have no nonthermal effect on food. The only chemical and physical changes result from the heat generated. For instance, if the food is heated to very high temperatures, proteins and carbohydrates may be hydrolysed, certain vitamins will be destroyed, and sugars and proteins may interact; the same reactions occur in foods heated in regular ovens at high temperatures. In fact, some of these changes are less obvious in foods heated in microwaves because the temperature rise is much faster than it is in regular ovens. Longer heating periods can lead to greater physical and chemical changes. For this reason, the nutritional quality of microwaved foods is often superior. For example, when vegetables are steamed on a stove, the water used to cover the vegetables can leach away some of their valuable vitamins; in a microwave, though, additional water is not needed.

>When food is placed in a microwave oven, the electromagnetic fields from the oven induce electric currents within the water in the food. Because all of our food (like ourselves) is mostly water, this tactic is a pretty good way to generate heat uniformly throughout a serving of food. That is also why it is possible to heat food more quickly in a microwave oven than in a conventional oven, where the food must be heated from outside in. Microwaves do nothing more to food than heat it. There is no evidence that microwaves alter the composition of food or have any other detrimental effects.

I pop the yolk and fry it too.

>Cunt in half

He really means cum in the eggs...this doesn't fertilize it son.

soo easy, add oil in a pan, when the oil is hot, add the egg and cover the pan, if u cover, the egg is perfect

off the heat

Good

Do I cut the eggs with the shell on? Do I also cut the cup in half?

Does American Olive oil come in Spray cans? Like your cheese?

Yes.

my perfect eggs

If you bake it long enough, it'll be a bread.

damn bro that's so much fucking food

Gonna try next time, thanks user

if you microwave your eggs you deserved to be hung

>deserved
>ed
Uh. Is there a story here?

Frying pan
Medium to high heat
Lots of kerrygold butter
Pour precracked eggs in pan
Let whites become white while you add salt pepper and garlic
Start scrambling
Make sure to turn off heat so eggs don't dry up

Perfect eggs

Soft boiled or poached on a piece of rye toast with butter.

>nonstick pan
>eggs sticking

Throw your pan out. The teflon is clearly damaged because you should be able to cook an eggs without any oil at all on a nonstick pan as long as you have a silicone spatula handy

the cup usually comes up the halfway part of the egg. cut there or maybe a little higher
>like pic related

But every breakfast restaurants will do eggs on a giant hot grid so where the fuck does your chef work where you can wait for a pan to heat up for every egg?

The right answer is hot pan until done

Preferably with bacon fat

It's easy to do scrambled eggs in a jug in the microwave and they come out great

light butter in pan, wait until it bubbles a bit
2 eggs in pan, wait until you cant see through to the bottom
flip
put heat on high for 10 seconds
turn off heat, let eggs rest in the pan while you do the bread
toast some sourdough
butter the toast
dip the bread in the yolks
wala

Put them in the steamer basket of my rice cooker and turn on the the steam setting. B the time the cycle finishes, they have the consistency of a perfectly boiled egg.

>4 eggs and two fistfuls of tots
>too much food
I'm 110 lbs and would still be peckish after eating that

user's method is far superior to any other mentioned in this thread for cooking eggs with fully set whites and warm runny yolk. Fast and simple, easily done in about 5 minutes from cold pan to plate. You just need to master the flip technique.

My dad taught me when I was eight. He gave me a small cast iron skillet and a piece of bread. I practiced flipping that piece of bread while I watched cartoons. When I could flip it every time he let me try it with an egg in a hot pan. I broke the yolk almost everytime at first but with a little cheese and toast it's still a good breakfast. After a week or two I could make perfect eggs over-easy everytime. At eight fucking years old. What's your excuse?

no, 4 eggs is overkill
even if it was scrambled eggs its like a massive bowl full
