How challenging is it to fry an egg. You people would not survive without the welfare state.

>>8904588
what do you mean "once in a while"

fucking up an egg is something that should happen only once, at the first time you cook one.

And you call yourself autistic.

[Anonymous No.8905635]

sorry to hear that, OP... i hate breaking yolks, and naturally i love my eggs over-easy, the riskiest type of egg to make since you can't break the yolk, but still need to flip it to get it done correctly. I'm a poorfag who grew up in an old-fashioned household that never had any nonstick pans. broken yolks happen, but the method I always used growing up was just use butter in the pan, (apply new butter for each batch of eggs you're making if you cook for more than one person), and drop the eggs close to eachother, so the yolks settle right next to eachother, then you can get 'em both in one flip. use a thin, long, metal spatula. medium-sized eggs simplify things. good luck hope this helps

>tfw cant cook eggs for myself because i eat them sunny side up, and the small pan we have is the only pan that doesn't have a lid

can never get the tops properly cooked cause of this, and cant use one of the giant fucking pans or else itll spread to much, can only eat eggs if my mom is cooking for everyone

[Anonymous No.8905680]

>>8905658

just use medium eggs and drop them into the pan one on top of the other, yolks settle next to each other and not as much whites so it wont spread as far... yolks right next to each other = whites share the same spread radius, roughly

Flipping it and frying the other side for 10-15 secs make the best fried eggs.

[Anonymous No.8905812]

>spatula

Why in the world would you use any utensil while cooking fried eggs?

Flip should be done using the pan.

Plating should be easily done directly from the pan.

Steam-frying is better, fry the bottom until desired color, add a tsp of water (or a capful of cooking sherry if you want to get fancy), & immediately cover to trap steam. Keep cooking for ~1 min or until the white on top of the yolk turns opaque.

I actually use this as a form of divination in the mornings. If I flip the eggs and they come out perfect, it will be a good day. If the yolk breaks, I stay in my room with a loaded shotgun.

Why not just flip them in the pan, and slide them off using gravity? It's much less likely you'll break a yolk that way.

[Anonymous No.8906461]

>>8906402

no, sorry

[Anonymous No.8906999]

i just made over-easies on a nonstick for the first time, and really like it... really good for cleaning up, too... my old cast iron needed a sponge and/or steel wool to clean up, this you just run under water...

Eggs look good but are those fake bacon strips for dogs? I'm not mad, just asking.

[Anonymous No.8907259]

>>8907221

its tofu bacon, yes. I love the way real bacon tastes but it always makes my stomach feel upset afterwards and I feel sluggish, so I avoid it unless there's bits on a pizza or salad or something.

Most fake meat products taste shitty but morning star farm's tofu bacon has really grown on me. Which is impressive since this is coming from a guy who loves his bbq cuts and burgers

Why would it be "full of oil?" It's a non-stick pan and overeasy eggs.

Critical thinking skills.

[Anonymous No.8907294]

>>8907013
How much oil are you using to cook your eggs buddy?

[Anonymous No.8907295]

>>8907013
>full of oil

That's where you're doing it wrong. The pan should only have enough oil to cook/keep the egg from sticking, not giving the egg something to swim in.
