How to make perfect egg ?

Ok, its not the toughest thing in the world perhaps , but there must be some tricks many of us may have seen others doing to get a perfect hard boiled or soft boiled or scrambled egg or Omelette..

Please share some techniques , would love to experiment new ways of making egg :slight_smile:

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

Poached eggs are easy. I use Laura Vitale’s method (from YouTube). Simmer the water (not boiling), add 1 Tblspn vinegar, then the egg, and let it cook for one minute EXACTLY. Turn off the heat and cover the pot with a lid, and let the egg sit in the water for 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and you’re good to go.

The perfect hard boiled egg: start with cold water! Place your eggs in and when the water comes to a roaring boil, let it boil for exactly 5 minutes, turn it off and and then cover your saucepan! Let it sit for another 5-7 minutes, covered in the same water. You’ll get the perfect hard boiled egg without that ā€œgrey ringā€ that can develop .

Learned this from Martha Stewart and it works like a charm everytime :blush:

I don’t like runny yolk, so I don’t do fried egg. I prefer poached eggs…without runny yolk…like the way Panera poaches their eggs for their breakfast sandwiches.

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

^^I don’t like runny yolk as well but I make fried eggs often for my daughter.I just flip them half way through to cook the yolk.Not sure of it is ā€˜tip’ …:hehe:

hard boil, soft , medium… in my egg maker… perfection everytime.

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

Scrambled eggs. We love eating these for breakfast

Heat up a non-stick frying pan on medium for 1 min.
Add butter about a teaspoon. Let it melt.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt. And mix
Crack eggs (I usually do 2)
Cook the whites ONLY. Push the yolks to the side of the pan.
Once the whites are fully cooked (takes 2 mins) mix the yolks right in there.
Give it another stir. And you are done.
Serve it with toast.

When I make them for myself I add 1/2 a teaspoon chives to give eggs a little umph.

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

I have been trying to perfect french eggs…almost there but my curds don’t turn out as soft and billowy as my friend’s.

Two eggs
4 tbsp milk
Blend until you see a layer of foam on top

Using no calorie butter spray, grease your frying pan
Throw in some chopped mushrooms
Chives if you like
Some onion
Saute until onion becomes transparent

Add in your eggs

This is where it gets tricky…you have to keep moving the eggs from underneath to allow curds to form.

Some people like their eggs moist like me so I take them off 3/4 of the way cooked and they keep cooking until they hit the table.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

Eggs are one of my favorite things…

My omelet…don’t know what else to call it lol

Two eggs blended with 4 tbsp milk
Crushed pepper
Light salt
Set aside

No calorie butter spray to grease your pan and start with throwing in your onions and the following in this order
bell peppers
mushrooms
tomatoes
spinach
black olives

My cue to add in my eggs is right after the black olives have been coated with the mixture

You’re not scrambling…just allowing the egg patty to form. Flip once…allow it to cook for a minute and flip again.

On one half of your omelet spread your feta and cheddar on top. Fold the patty over.

Serve.

I also did this with left over qeema instead of the veggies and cheese…tasted so damn yum.

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

Eggs in a muffin tin…

6 eggs
1/4 milk
additions of your choice
greased muffin tin
bake at 350 for about 35 minutes

Re: How to make perfect egg ?

Egg bake

Pillsbury Grand Biscuits quartered

Greased baking dish

One egg
1 tbs milk
Beat/blend/whisk
Fold in your biscuit pieces and coat them evenly
Gently fold in 1/4 cup chopped green onions, 1/2 cup cheddar and 1/2 Monterrey (or 1 cup cheddar)
Spread mixture out in baking dish in a single layer
Bake at 350 for about half hour
Some people brush on melted butter for added flavor - I do not

Reha this is ā€œmy omeletteā€(scrambled)…Our omelettes are twins!!
