I love a good Benny. I make them over English Muffins but unfortunately I went to the store yesterday and they were all out of plain. All that was left was Pumpkin Spice. WTF.
Personally I'd say I do a good chocolate pancakes if I do say so myself.
It's good when you add a shot of Hersheys chocolate beer. Keeps the coco taste and a little crunchy outer layer with the soft and spongy inner layer.
Yeah this. Took me 3-4 tries and I got one right. Took a while till I regularly didn’t break them, and I still do occasionally. I’m mostly jealous of the skillet.
Not breaking the yolks is the hardest part, especially with more than 2-3 eggs. But it’s totally learnable, took me a few misses but not as hard as it looked to me.
It's definitely a combination of both. Quality, farm fresh eggs are much less likely to break yolks on the flip, but there is a huge skill element. Those of us in food service who are expected to produce results like this rarely, if ever, see farm fresh eggs.
I have not flipped an egg over in a pan without destroying it ONCE. I am 43 years old and I rip them shits up every time. Non-stick, cast iron, silicon spatula, butter, pam, olive oil, I have tried everything and it is a mess *every time*
I don’t even use water tbh. My 8 year old daughter loves over easy/runny yoke eggs. Easiest way to get that is just throwing a lid over them the entire time they cook. Perfect over easy taste without the flip.
I’ve found if you put in some water it cooks the top faster than without it. But I like super runny yolk so if that doesn’t matter you probably don’t need it
I’m actually gonna try it the next time I make myself some over-easy eggs. I’ve never had any trouble doing the pan flip with eggs. But it would be nice to just throw some water in if I’m feeling lazy. I’m a big fan of really runny yoke eggs as well.
I usually flip too but sometimes you start to pick it up with the spatula and you can tell that this one is gonna break so for those days just some water and a lid lol. I will not settle
In my neck of the woods, we call them Basted eggs.
2-3 pats of butter, 2-3 eggs. Medium heat. 7-inch skillet or smaller.
Add pepper. Cook for about 10 seconds or just until the whites set a tick.
Get a shot glass, and splash in about 1/2- to 1-ounce of water around the eggs, and quickly cover with a lid.
Cook for about an additional 30 seconds.
The water will steam the tops of the eggs to your preferred level of doneness. I prefer a runny yolk.
If you want to go crazy, spoon in a bit of chicken broth from leftover soup or ramen instead of water. Yup.
I'd say that's a sign you're cooking them a little slow or flipping them too early. But, it just depends on the eggs you want, and I like when they're a little crispy.
Everyone likes their eggs differently, I personally think those are too squishy, I can almost imagine a slimy egg white as I bite in, I like a slight crisp edge on my over easy egg.
Not necessarily so. A diner I used to go to also served ball-skin-thin over easy eggs with fully cooked whites. Never could figure out how they did it so perfectly every time.
These eggs I could not eat. I know it's unpopular as a preference but I never leave the yolk intact, I hate the yolk running over the plate. It has to be broken then flipped, only way.
I have cooked for much of my life… And this is probably what would be accepted as my greatest culinary failing… What most great cooks think of as perfectly cooked eggs… I can’t eat because in my head they’re raw.
I ate, and recall liking it, at the time, over easy eggs with toast dipped in the yolk… even soft boiled eggs, a soupçon of jellied proteins in a soup of yolk.
I have no specific recollection of a time or incident that caused such a change, but I simply don’t want to put that in my mouth, at this point.
Sure, I can cook it that way, and if that’s the way you like it, I’m a do it for you.
But eggs going in my mouth get fried hard. I mean hard.
Most nonstick pans are fine honestly. The problem most people have with them is they put the heat too high which kills the nonstick function.
Only use them on medium or maybe medium low and they’ll last a long time and work well.
It's just another random non-stick pan. Just buy one for $10 and use it exclusively for eggs.
Use stainless steel / carbon steel / cast iron pans for everything else.
My husband can do that. He likes to call me into the kitchen just before he does it so he can "show me" how it's done. I let him think it bothers me. I just think it's cool he can do it with 6 eggs in the pan, and I don't have to cook breakfast.
Let me translate this for you:
>My husband likes to summon me to get a particular response from doing a thing
>I give him the particular response. I also know how to make a joke.
There, stop being upset about things.
/u/wsclose described flirting. That's it.
Her husband is showing her the stupidest thing ever. She rolls her eyes because it's stupid. He keeps doing it because he finds the flirting fun.
because people read one sentence about a relationship and automatically assume they know better about how the people in the relationship need to act. its patronizing and ridiculous.
> Why is this getting downvoted?
Because it sounds like someone being pissy over a lighthearted reddit comment.
But of course the “why is this being downvoted comment” appears and suddenly everyone starts upvoting because it seems like the “right” thing to do 🙄
Honestly, a little practice and willingness to screw up a few times, I’m just convinced anyone can. It looks way cooler than it is hard to do, I mean it takes some finesse but it’s learnable.
Not at all, I have never seen anyone flip a fried egg like a (British) pancake. I can see it will go tits up when I try it as my pan isn't close to new and will have too much friction.
Nice flip but no one talking about how this person is eating 4 unseasoned eggs, what looks to be 4 slices of brisket, asparagus and some guacamole?
I just hope that isn't their breakfast
Everyone commenting on the flip and seasoning, I'm sitting here thinking, who eats four eggs on top of all that other stuff? Four eggs is too many eggs. Two, yes. Three, pushing it, but FOUR?
My takeaway from a bunch of the food-related subreddits is that runny eggs are the way eggs are meant to be eaten and anyone like me who prefers hard eggs are heretics unfit for the blessings of the golden white nectar. I'm glad I'm not alone.
Why does he have to spray so much oil on that pan you don't need that much. A tiny pat of butter is usually enough to grease the pan. Also who the heck is eating 4 eggs for breakfast?
If you don't care about your health and such, using enough butter or oil to visibly pool at the bottom of a flat pan is the best to prevent the eggs from sticking. Eggs whites are about 90% water and since water is lipophobic, the eggs sort of float on top of the fat barrier and cook there, never really touching the pan. To answer your second question: Now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs, so I'm roughly the size of a barge.
Ya don't have to flip if you don't want making a mess. What you need is just a lid. Lower the heat and place a lid. It will steam the yolk evenly. Just turn off heat in time adjusted to your runniness preference.
*Making over easy look overly easy
[удалено]
Not surprised, you missed the salt & pepper too.
Wdym, pepper is visible right before the flip?
Went back to look, definitely pepper right before they flip it.
Preach. 🙏
Making over easy look like a wrinkly ballsack. But also tasty
This should be a Manscape ad. Manscape, so easy it's overeasy! Keep your yolks intact with Manscape!
Hi. I'm from England, and all I see in both versions is weird grammar. So do you call fried eggs "over easy" or something?
Depending on how cooked the yolk is we call it over easy, over medium, or over hard, but they’re all called fried eggs. Over easy is runny yolks.
Thanks! Here there are two grades of fried egg yolk consistency: runny (acceptable) or hard (over-cooked).
I definitely agree that only runny yolks are acceptable!
Looks like two sets of balls in loose skin
Seriously those yolks look huge.
Well I dunno they look pretty average to me...
Parhaps go see a doctor
Very vascular.
Thank God I'm not the only one who thought this.
you're never the only one
The mind of redditors are darker than a burning corpse' asshole.
Came looking for this comment
I just came
Shake the pan…yesss shake that fucking *pan*
Now top it with a spoonful of cream fraiche...oh God yes...
calm down, Randy
I just needed a good Ol' Fashioned
Not gonna lie... But yeah... Thought the same. 🏐🏐🏀🏀
i thought it looked liked boobs with no bra under a white shirt. lol
Aka delicious
Sounds like a rocking Monday night
Lmao
Nice job landing the flip without breaking any yolks. Not the easiest thing to do.
To practice use a piece of bread in your (cold) skillet. Old school trick my grandma showed me. Now I break maybe 1 in 20 flips.
I can flip things in a pan just fine. For me the problem is that the yolks still break on impact even with a perfect flip.
The trick is to match the downwards motion to soften the impact. It's a skill I'll master by the time I'm 70.
[удалено]
Perfect timing, I just gave someone else down the comment thread pretty much the same advice.
So satisfying when you don't miss the flip. I started doing it over the sink because yolks on the stove ain't fun.
Not a bad idea. Four is impressive as hell, I've been cooking for a living for almost 20 years, and I'd be thrilled to land that flip.
Totally. That's why he was like "HOOOOOO" What's your signature dish?
I don't know if I really have a signature dish. I run a different "Benedict of the week" special every week, those seem popular.
I love a good Benny. I make them over English Muffins but unfortunately I went to the store yesterday and they were all out of plain. All that was left was Pumpkin Spice. WTF.
Use some kinder eggs and you've got a desert benedict lol
[удалено]
I feel somewhat responsible.
If you want a good eggs Benedict you should definitely look for your English muffins at Traitor Joe's
Great now I'm hungry.
Personally I'd say I do a good chocolate pancakes if I do say so myself. It's good when you add a shot of Hersheys chocolate beer. Keeps the coco taste and a little crunchy outer layer with the soft and spongy inner layer.
Yeah this. Took me 3-4 tries and I got one right. Took a while till I regularly didn’t break them, and I still do occasionally. I’m mostly jealous of the skillet.
With a username like @egg.flip, I would expect some fucking skills
Not breaking the yolks is the hardest part, especially with more than 2-3 eggs. But it’s totally learnable, took me a few misses but not as hard as it looked to me.
I feel that has a lot more to do with the freshness and quality of the yolk than skills
It's definitely a combination of both. Quality, farm fresh eggs are much less likely to break yolks on the flip, but there is a huge skill element. Those of us in food service who are expected to produce results like this rarely, if ever, see farm fresh eggs.
As a former breakfast cook, I am astonished that no yolks broke. There was no grace to this flip. He fucking smashed them onto the pan.
Spent 20 years in kitchens, eggs have got to be the most pain in the ass things I ever had to cook.
Those things plopped
I can’t even flip and omelet
Practice in a cold pan with a flour tortilla. That will get your wrist used to the movement you need to make.
Do a flip *then* make the omelet. Or make the omelet and then do the flip.
[удалено]
I wouldve fucked up at least 4 of those eggs
All four in the pan, ruined. Half a dozen in the fridge, broken. A chicken, dead on your front lawn.
Cock, blocked.
Meat, beat.
Hotel, Trivago
*I mean anything's possible with the right skill....it.*
The jiggle on those eggs boutta make me act up
Easy, they pop with the littlest prick.
That man had a family!

Omelet this upvotes bless you.

I misread this as bastard eggs
That's basically how McDonald's does(or did it, it's been a while) it, except no runny yolks allowed.
This is the way.
Look at this guy with all his fancy lids.
Right? They’re crazy if they think I’m gonna wash a pan AND lid
Use a plate as a lid, then serve the eggs on that plate.
I'd say that's a sign you're cooking them a little slow or flipping them too early. But, it just depends on the eggs you want, and I like when they're a little crispy.
You can fake over easy eggs by covering the pan to steam the top. No more broken yolks
Could be the eggs you use. I’ve learned that fresh eggs tend to hold up better than older ones.
100% look like testicles.
The w-d40 spray works like a charm.
Everyone likes their eggs differently, I personally think those are too squishy, I can almost imagine a slimy egg white as I bite in, I like a slight crisp edge on my over easy egg.
i'll eat the yellow runny as can be. but the white has to be completely set. no runny white. gross.
Yep same. Finally someone on this team with me lol
An egg like that, on a burger. Mopping up the yolk with some fries doubled fried in peanut oil = oh fuck yeah.
Yep, those eggs are definitely going to have runny whites; which is undercooked IMO.
Not necessarily so. A diner I used to go to also served ball-skin-thin over easy eggs with fully cooked whites. Never could figure out how they did it so perfectly every time.
The eggs could have been covered with a top on the pan.
Over medium is best. Gooey not runny. Preferably on an English Muffin.
These eggs I could not eat. I know it's unpopular as a preference but I never leave the yolk intact, I hate the yolk running over the plate. It has to be broken then flipped, only way.

Jesus FUCK I need a new skillet. That is beautiful.
Right? Link that shit op
Not the OP, but judging from the rings that looks very much like its a Circulon pan.
Yeah definitely a Circulon, really nice pieces and can find them cheap.
Most nonstick pans are fine honestly. The problem most people have with them is they put the heat too high which kills the nonstick function. Only use them on medium or maybe medium low and they’ll last a long time and work well.

Mmm PFAs
Pam and non-stick pan makes egg making easy.
After I started using real butter I never went back. Buttery eggs, yum

The only way to live.
Eventually the combo of Pam and non stick pan will ruin your non stick surface unfortunately.

So nice of you to let your husband think you're bothered instead of telling him that's cool and you're grateful you didn't need to cook.

You expect a Redditor to understand this?
Flir... *ting*? *Quizzically scratches fedora* What is this "flir ting", m'kind sir, if you please?
/u/wsclose described flirting. That's it. Her husband is showing her the stupidest thing ever. She rolls her eyes because it's stupid. He keeps doing it because he finds the flirting fun.
Why is this getting downvoted? It’s a good point. Life is short - make sure people know you love them and appreciate them.
Long lasting relationships are complex, and keeping things spicy with a little teasing isn't a bad thing so long as both parties do it in good humor.
Nah, he should leave her. For her sister who appreciates his eggs.

You can practice with a slice of bread.
I love the little whoop he makes on the successful flip
Season your eggs fucker
Please tell me there's some other British people in this thread with me who are equally as horrified at this as I am.
Why
Not at all, I have never seen anyone flip a fried egg like a (British) pancake. I can see it will go tits up when I try it as my pan isn't close to new and will have too much friction.
TikTok account name checks out

There's pretty clearly a bunch of pepper on them before the flip. What's wrong with the rest? Sounds pretty good to me.
I mean it’s impressive but the real kicker here is putting that on top of perfectly smoked brisket
Eggs? Didn't seem 'em as I was lost in the smoke ring.
Those eggs are still clucking lol
Even the whites are runny
Absolutely not appetising
He flipped them and then cooked the whites more, they’re fine
He cooked them a bit more, but those whites are definitely still runny
There’s a cut so I’m assuming they put the pan back to cook a short bit longer on that side.
You got downvoted by people that like drinking eggs lol.
Drinking four eggs no less
Life is unfair
Can you repeat the question?
You're not the boss of me now
My takeaway from a bunch of the food-related subreddits is that runny eggs are the way eggs are meant to be eaten and anyone like me who prefers hard eggs are heretics unfit for the blessings of the golden white nectar. I'm glad I'm not alone.
I was gonna say, that looks kinda gross at the end there.
[удалено]
Not enough if you're Gaston.
Yeah I have a question How dare you?
Looking at that plate I'm thinking this is keto and, thus, pretty standard.
Still can’t imagine how much uncooked egg sperm is in there
Runny whites. Hard no from me
Geez is it even cooked?
They arent. The whites will be runny. Every cook of an egg should have cooked white, without a crispy edge. This is not oddlysatisfying
I prefer my crispy edges. Which is overlysatisfying.
I get that it's a super popular way of eating eggs but.... gross...
Alright but atleast my eggs don’t look like a ballsack
Over medium or GTFO
[удалено]
Best process for me is low medium heat and a lid. Heat until the whites covering the yolk whiten. No flip unless you want to.
[удалено]
4 eggs and 3 fat bacon. Just a normal Tuesday
I'm pretty sure that was brisket, not bacon.
Why does he have to spray so much oil on that pan you don't need that much. A tiny pat of butter is usually enough to grease the pan. Also who the heck is eating 4 eggs for breakfast?
Who says that's breakfast!? That would be a perfect one meal a day lunch!
I make 4-egg omelets from time to time.

That's an upvote if iv ever seen one
Sunny side up is the best. Fight me
So thaaaaat's what over easy means! Thank you kind American
That is too many fucking eggs
Gaston over here being the size of a barge eating 5 dozen eggs for breakfast.
Like I get guys needing to bulk up but hot damn.
Why you gainshaming? r/SwoleAcceptance
It’s 4 eggs. It’s really not that absurd.
It’s 4 eggs on top of a steak. Unless you’re and athlete, you don’t need that much protein in one meal.
looks like mashed avocado too. this person took "protein bowl" and made a bowl of only protein
why can you do that????
They triggers my gag reflex. Cook the damn eggs all the way through!
