Eggs that is!
I am obsessed with poached eggs right now - I do them with milk, slight whirlpool and perfect every time!! Yummoooo coudl just as easily eat them any which way though!!
So how do you prefer your eggs! Runny or hard? Baked, scrambled, poached, fried, boiled? I could take all of them as long as the yolk is runny!! Yum!
I've never been able to master the poached egg but I love them. I always have my eggs poached when I have breakfast out. When I'm home I have fried or scrambled eggs. I like my fried eggs hard in a sandwich or runny if I'm having them with bacon or chips.
Scrambled with cream until they're rubbery as! Then on toast with crispy bacon and tomato sauce :hide: I'm a simple gal with simple tastes :lol:
I love tomato sauce with my eggs too. DH says I'm weird. I think he's the weird one!
As long as the yolks runny! Poached or scrambled are my favourite, not keen on fried. Lots of pepper and a pinch of salt
On the weekend I did poached eggs masterchef style (ie cracked into a piece of glad wrap that was sitting over a ramekin - dont forget to stay with oil!!) and they turned out amazing!!! I usually find poached too watery, but love love loved these!!
I also like scrambled, boiled or fried... But as a healthy eating plan is starting I'm thinking poached is the new way to go. We had them on a salad and I can't explain how good they were!!
Omlett is popular in our house. I love poached but often end up with soggy toast :sick:
Soft boiled with toast soldiers for dipping is fun

DH poaches me an egg every morning for breakfast. He puts it on a slice of wholemeal toast and a spoonful of baked beans on top.
I like the white all firm but the yolk runny - an uncooked white will make me gag and put me off eggs for weeks!
I like poached. I find with the day fresh eggs from the younger girls, they poach beautifully without muching fussing about.
I find using milk helps, slow whirlpool and crack from a flat plate and slide in slowly into the centre works a treat! 3 mins for perfectly soft but runny yolk! Mmmmm!! We get ours free range from farmers markets Astrid - so nice!!
What do you mean by using milk?
Hidden in cakes and the like. Eggs are gross :lol:
I have them any way possible.. I love eggs!! Gooey yolk, not runny but not hard (I HATE when I eat out and the egg is so under cooked that the white is runny. EWW). I go through stages, last it was poached now I'm having lots of scrambled.
You poach your eggs with milk???
Poached in water in the microwave. On English muffins, or on a bed of iceberg with blue cheese and bacon...
fried then chopped in a bowl so the yolk mixes and creates a sauce for the whites. Then on hot buttered toast.
hard boiled and dipped in dark soy with white pepper (thanks sush!)
scrambled my husband does the best. They taste like straight from a 5 star kitchen... Even better with truffle oil (yes I hear the groans) with smoked salmon and some persian feta.
Soft boiled with Vegemite soldiers :)
One thing I hate. Omelettes. Blurgh.
I poach them in water with a dash of milk, works a treat and you don't get that gross vinegar taste you can sometimes get on them!:
poached or fried, but the yolks MUST be runny......mmmmmmmmmm
Want this baby out now so I can go back to having my runny eggs!!! :lol:
Poached, have a poaching pan which is great. Scrambled, Fried, boiled with soldiers, omelette, French Toast, hard boiled in a salad or as a side.
I do love to dip chips in a fried egg, very yummy! I like my eggs runny, very very runny when I have them fried, poached or boiled.
Best of cooking cakes, especially vanilla cakes as I have chooks and the colour is amazing compared to a shop purchased egg :D
Love poached too!
Or a fluffy cheese and tomato omelette yum! My kids love them too.
Not a fan of omlettes either. The girls seem to like them, so I get DH to make them.
I'm not a huge fan of eggs and I'm pretty fussy with them! With boiled, fried or poached, the whites have to be properly cooked, or I can't eat them. But I only like runny yolks. I find I'm too fussy to really bother cooking them for myself. If I have eggs it's scrambled or an omelette! Usually if I try to make myself boiled/fried/poached eggs, I give them to DH or DD because they're not cooked to my liking!
Nup cant handle poached at all :sick: Hubby loves them and I gag every time he makes them. The though of a runny egg makes me want to gag.
I like scrambled eggs but have gone completely off them while pregnant, it probably doesn't help that we have an endless supply of free range eggs so I got so sick of eating them!
Thanks for the milk tip, must try!
I too like poached and boiled. Boiled, runny eggs with sourdough toast soldiers....mmmmmmm....
This is going to sound really sad, but I've never had poached eggs in my life :o. I'd love to try them, but have NO idea how to make them!
I love fried eggs (runny, mmmm) with bacon and like scrambled eggs. Not a fan of omelettes either.
Mr favourite is definitely poached - whites set but yummy runny yolks. Best thing about my steam oven - put the eggs in little cups, whack em in the steamer and by the time the toast is done I have beautiful "poached" eggs. R says its the mosr expensive egg poacher on the planet but sooooo worth it ;-)
fried. in the pan after cooking bacon. but for that the whole thing need to be well cooked so no runny yoke then put in between some thick whole meal bread with BBQ sause and cheese nomnomnom
and in omlets too..
Never been a huge fan of poached though only in ceaser salids
Although i do have a thing for egg, bacon, avo and cheese sandwiches...
Mmmmmmmmmmmm fried with a runny yolk so I can dip bacon into it. I'm missing that, being pregnant. Or a yummy omelette. Boiled. Scrambled eggs on toast with tomato sauce and pepper! Mmmm...
Not a huge fan of poached, I just can't get it right and it's always watery and not very nice.
I love poached, boled or fried with runny yolks! Dp makes awesome fluffy omelettes with mushrooms and spinach.
I hate scrambled though, they make me feel sick. They are too rich or something.
