/ck/ - Food & Cooking

after i fried up some cock noodles i use the deli spicy semen sauce to let the egg soak up that liquidy goodness while frying it up to a crispy gooey texture

It depends on how you define perfect, dude. Cook them enough to figure out how you like them, then keep doing it that way.

hot pan

>>14266503
If you want them as pic related.
Medium heat pan
Wait for it to get hot.
Insert oil of choice wait 20 sec for the oil to heat up
Eggs IN
Cook until the yellow slime on top of the white turns , well white . Thats your cue that eggs are done.

crank up the pan until the oil is hot and then turn it off completely
then put the egg in

>>14266503
ask your mom to do it for ya

>>14266630
>yellow slime
Dude get other eggs

>>14266503
lots of oil, high heat. use a spoon to baste the egg. gives the best eggs, crispy edges no runny whites and a raw yolk.

>flip 1-2 min and done

Why is there a thread about how to fry an egg every fucking day?
Are you that fucking retarded that you tried to fry an egg, fucked it up somehow and feel the need to come here and ask instead of changing whatever you were doing wrong?

>>14266565
This

>>14266503
4 minutes on medium high heat usually does it for me

>brown edges

Gross. Just flip it over for 15 seconds at the end

>>14267039
I fried my very first eggs a few days ago. It really isn't difficult. At all.
I think the people making threads like this and "Where should I start" threads want someone to do the work of learning and practicing cooking for them.

>>14266503
I fry them in a small, non-stick or cast iron pan with butter or vegetable oil and put on a lid for the last 30 seconds or so with maybe a teaspoon of water so the top steams and there are no uncooked whites.

>>14267039
In spanish there is a saying or phrase for people who can't cook or have very little cooking skills which is 'I can't even cook a fried egg'. Which, you know, means that frying an egg is VERY basic.

>Pan
>Bacon grease or butter
>Max heat
>Once oil moves around quickly when the pan is tilted, turn to medium heat
>Eggs
>Plate on top
>Once you start to hear the sizzling of steam dripping back into the pan (~1.5 mins), plate off
>Flip eggs
>Put onto plate after 10 sex

Rubbery eggs and overcooked yolks.

>>14267045
guaranteed every damn one of those yolks busted

>>14267009

Lard or butter

>>14267001
Uncooked whites are a slime
Deal with it

>>14266503
Don't use nonstick

>>14266503
heat pan dry, add about a tbsp of oil of your choice, wait for slight smoke, reduce heat to med., eggs in, season as desired, flip or fold or out depending on what you were looking to have at the moment (sunnyside, omelette, etc.) because they will be done or ready at this point for the next stage, and eat wa la

I like to drizzle a few drops of oil in a small pan, crack two eggs in, add a teaspoon of water, salt and pepper and then cover with a lid for 3 minutes. Perfect runny yolk with cooked solid whites. Serve on top of toast.

heat pan
put oil on pan
fry egg
wa la

Fried eggs are the easiest egg to cook.

1) Pan. Piping Hot
2) Oil in
3) Eggs in
4) Wait
5) Take off heat when done

>>14267045
He probably ruined every single one of the yolks doing that shit. You can see how one on the top busts wide open.

>>14267045
>that black hand

>>14270353
This doesn't work.
A piping hot pan will leave the top of the egg undercooked while leaving the bottom of the yolk overcooked.

None stick pan.
Oil (vegetable is my favourite)
Medium heat
Crack eggs and fry until bottom is solidifying. Put lid on pan for 1 minute.

WO LAH

The number one thing is to cook them slowly. Only a beginner would use a high heat. Fry them gently for the best consistency. Otherwise you end up with burnt undersides and uncooked tops.

>>14271247
This is true but cooking them slowly leaves the eggs with a shitty texture.
They are so much yummier if they have crispy edges.

The BEST egg cooking technique is
>Medium/High Heat
>Spread the egg in the pan to ensure maximum crispiness
>Turn off heat and flip only for a second or two to cook the white on top
Using a plate or a lid on top also works but it's harder to monitor the eggs progress and it leaves some condensation on the egg

>>14271247
do you put milk and cheese in your baby food eggs as well

>>14267057
>Flip it over

Are you on fucking meth?

>>14271192
pleb

>>14266541
Perfect means being able to get them the way they're wanted every time. Most people don't only ever cook for themself.

>>14271192
super reddit, imagine thinking a grease ball is any better than over cooked whites or that spooning oil over top is some back alley chinese secret

>>14266503

>>14273556
Those are scrambled, dummy

>>14267039
it's some weird form of """trolling""" where they ask for help and then get replies

>>14273556
I wish more street vendors were like this dude

I still have problems with the egg sticking to the pan. Normally, I cook at low heat on oil and let the egg harden gradually. On hid-high heat, the egg sticks or gets that bubbly flaky texture.

>>14271383
Ok, but what kind of eggs do you want to master first? You need to practice each techinique individually.

OP ignore everyone else except me

>pull eggs some time before you cook so they warm up a little in the room temp
>heat pan with medium heat
>crack eggs into something you can pour them from (coffee mug works fine)
>put 1tbsp butter into pan
>when it's melted and hot, pour in eggs while you are holding the pan up slightly so the eggs pool on to one side
>do this for 15 seconds
>put pan down and wait 10 seconds
>jiggle the pan so the eggs aren't sticking
>set timer for 90 seconds
>salt and pepper as you want
>when the timer is done, flip them
>count to 10 slowly
>plate them
you can flip them again as they'll look prettier but what's really the point of that? It's just another possibility of breaking yolks imo

>>14275008
You're full of shit, nigger

>>14274944
>>14274944
i couldnt finish. wtf man.

>>14275017
got it down perfectly during quarantine my man

>>14267045
pretty impressed that he cushioned the landing, but still most of the yolks probably broke.

>>14273556
HOW

>>14266503
Over Easy. Don't even fucking reply to me I'm right, ya'll niggers can keep your salmonella eggs away from me.

>>14267900
it's not the word "slime" that's a problem, yo

>>14266503
>frying
oil, low heat and a lid on the pan

>>14266503
Unironically pay somebody else to do it.

>>14273556
how... does... he... get... out...

>>14266503
Microwave oven.

A tip if you're scrambling: whip them bad boys right up until they hit the pan, and make sure you're moving your fork/spoon/whisk circularly, going in and out of the eggs. You want to kind of scoop as you do it. This way you get air bubbles in the eggs, which helps make them fluffy. You don't need to add milk.
Also, if you add pepper, always add it either as the eggs coagulate or just after, don't wait until after they're done entirely. Oregano is also a good addition.
>>14277259
You should be shot, microwaved eggs are nasty as fuck - dry, and they smell terrible. And the residual egg stuck to the dish you use is a pain in the ass to clean.

>>14277294
>You should be shot, microwaved eggs are nasty as fuck - dry, and they smell terrible. And the residual egg stuck to the dish you use is a pain in the ass to clean.
You're stupid, and would most likely prefer microwaved eggs if you didn't oniw that they were microwaved, because they have a huge tolerance for failure, and almost always come out perfect.
Your favorite restaurant in the world probably
>starts eggs in m'wave
>finishes on grill top
and you are completely oblivious to that fact.

>>14277301
I worked at my favorite restaurant in the world and we made them on a pan, like civilized human beings.
A microwave is not for quality cooking. It is for fast, simple cooking.

>>14277305
>I worked at my favorite restaurant in the world
Apologies for making you out yourself as the owner, operator, and sole proprietor of that stand next to eggfort.

>>14277310
Microwave yourself, faggot. Maybe the radiation will cause you to mutate into an intelligent person.

>>14277305
You just don't know any better, sweaty.
It's cute that you try to act like normal people though. Not many retards like you have that confidence.

>>14277321
I accept your projection as a concession.

>>14277335
>I accept your projection as a concession
The retard cries out in pain as it attacks you.

Microwaving eggs is the new trend in gasticular moleculalgebra, and other science themed food fetishisers. Too big brained for the hot pan virgins with low wages.

>>14266503
Everyone but me must learn this

>>14273556
Followed this dude's technique as best I could, only guessing at the spices, and it was a damn good egg sandwich.

>>14277350
I microwaved eggs for months because using a pan seemed like a hassle.
But it takes only slightly longer, it's more consistent, and it's significantly better overall.
Who on earth, having done it both ways, would ever choose the microwave?
