The low heat is probably the problem

Check 30 seconds later.

I finally gave up on trying to cook a perfect sunny side up egg.

I poach every egg I cook now, it's easy and shit and everything cooks perfectly.
>>
Spoon some of the heated butter on top of the yolk.
>>
>>7193311
>problem

found it
>>
your problem obviously is that you aren't cutting up the egg in 4 parts and seasoning them differently to become a spice master
>>
Probably need the smallest bit more heat.
>>
why are you cooking it on low heat you stupid idiot
>>
Non stick pan.
Medium low heat.
Put tiny amount of water in pan.
Cover with lid.
The steam will cook the egg evenly.
>>
>butter

unsalted, i dearly hope
>>
>not liking runny yolk
>>
>>7193505
runny =/= uncooked
>>
it sounds like you like over easy
>>
You need the pan hot, but not smoking. That way you get crispy white and runny yolk. Takes about 2 mins to cook.
>>
>>7193541
don't want crisp white, want moist soft cooked white and runny yolk, should be slightly jelly like but still ooze out but not liquid as if not cooked at all
>>
>>7193541
>crispy white
You're the kid who ate his scabs in kindergarten, weren't you?
>>
Has anyone tried frying an egg in an oven? I'm fairly sure the problem I always have with the pan is uneven heat distribution
>>
>>7193311
while were talkin eggs, how the fuck do you make an over easy egg? all i want is some fried egg with some runny yolk for my toast but it always either sticks to the pan or i fuck up the flip
>>
If it looks done in the pan, it will be overcooked in the plate


seriously, just remove them and they will continue cooking in the plate for a couple minutes

Yeah, or oil like vegetable oil or olive oil. What do you normally lubricate your pan with?

>>

This.

Sunny side up is the BEST way to eat an egg.

Supposedly if you're having trouble getting the whites to cook on top, you can just splash some of the hot cooking oil on top. Sounds like it takes too much skill for me, but whatever.
>>
>>7193660
You're the one who eats well done steak right?
>>
OK. Serious question.

How do I fry an egg without the bottom getting crispy? Some people like it that way (see above) but I don't. I like soft whites, and somewhat runny yolks.

I can poach eggs just fine, and prefer them like that because I can't fry them well: frying them the way I like them is something I haven't got the hang of yet.

I know I'm doing something wrong there, but what is it?
>>

Move to the UK

They eat well done in the UK sissy

How the fuck do you autists post all this fancy shit all the time but can't even cook an egg? Do you dress yourself in the morning?
>>
>>7193785
get your butter/oil heated up. Drop your egg, wait until it barely sets then tilt the pan and just spoon the butter/oil over the yolk until it turns white.

I find it hard to do it consistently, but it makes for the best eggs possible - runny but not raw yolk and soft white
>>
>>7193789
I love how obsessed you are.
>>
>>7194354
>Do you dress yourself in the morning?
lol, of course. Mommy lays out my clothes for the day on the bed and helps me put on my pants sometimes. But I can velcro my own shoes now!
>>
>>7193311
once you master cooking eggs like this, learn how to make the perfect mixtures of spices by seasoning a quarter on the egg with your spice combination. You can get 4 different combinations per egg. So if you eat 10 eggs a day, you can try over 40 different combinations and become a spice master. best cooking tip you could ever get.

don't keep your eggs in the fridge it makes them cook unevenly.

Found your problem. Never leave them unattended.
>>

>oil like vegetable oil or olive oil
This is how you ruin eggs. The flavor of oil is terrible for eggs.
>>
>not cooking your eggs properly
>eating them runny or sunny side up

Enjoy your E. coli and salmonella.
>>
Don't see the point of cooking eggs like this. The white part is tasteless, and if you fuck up the yolk the egg becomes inedible. Creamy scrambled eggs is the only way to go.
>>
>>7195463
You eat bites of the whites with fried potatoes and meat, and then when you break the yolk you eat it with toast
>>
>>7195440
Even with the shit covered US eggs, the chances of E. coli are extremely for raw eggs.

But it doesn't matter since the eggs are cooked
>>
>>7195440

do they not employ the use of pasteurization in your third-world country?
>>
>>7195463
>White person that doesn't know how to use seasoning

Surprise surprise
>>
>>7195482

The chances that you have ever eaten a pasteurised egg from the shell even in America are practically zero. In the first world salmonella is combatted by simply washing the shells during processing.

What the fuck. You just have to wash and cook them properly you freak, no need to wear hazmat suits
>>
>>7193504
Clarified, dick-wad
>>
>>7195463
Scrambled is such utter garbage. Let's take the yolk and albumen, two portions of the egg (regarded in other contexts as separate ingredients), each with desirable, unique characteristics, and rather than treating each delicately, just fuck my shit up senpai and blend it all together until it becomes homogenous in (insipid) flavor and texture.

Do you then cover it with cheese?
>>
>>7195533


in the us most eggs are pasteurized
>>
>>7195547
Read your own post. It is not normal to get so upset over nothing. Seek help. If you're ever cured, I guarantee you'll enjoy melted cheese on your scrambled eggs too.
>>
>>7195547
actually, scrambled eggs by themselves taste like shit.

Fry some onions until they're soft and lightly colored, then add the eggs then some salt and seasonings that you like. That's the proper, basic way to make scrambled eggs.
But you can do more. Chop up some hot dogs,and add them to the onions while they're frying, and voilá, you have a very filling breakfast you can eat with some bread slices.
>>
>>7193563

Okay. You want low heat, oil in the pan, and the egg has to cook in there for about 5mins, maybe abit longer. White should be soft but cooked, yolk will be runny.
>>
>>7193311
Honestly you should use olive oil instead of butter.
You'll learn how to cook those eventually though.
>butter
Goddamn.
>>
>>7195568
Lol, i said this in a thread a couple of weeks ago but i was just shit posting. Did you see my post and take me seriously?
>>
>>7195439
Fucking plebeian.
>>
does no one else just splash the hot oil on the yolk?

I crack the egg in, when the whites are nearly done I splash the hot oil with a spatula over the yolk cooking it slightly, then server runny
>>
>>7193311
>low heat

>crack
iunno op, sounds excellent to me
>>
>>7196152
My mother used to do something like this. Low heat, lots of oil (or bacon grease, whatever was going.
Slowly cooking them, and slowly spooning oil over the yolk over and over again until it reached desired level of "done".
No flipping. She would then take it out of the oil and place em on paper towels to make them a little less greasy.
>>
>>7193785
Lower your heat and use bacon grease. Get a good spatula like a Hutzler fiberglass reinforced nylon or learn a good sautee motion. I go 2 notches below medium for fried eggs and a notch below for omlettes. With practice you can flip an egg with runny white and runny yolk (over easy for you ignorant swine). Over medium is runny yolk solid white. It takes practice. Eggs are cheap, have fun.
