I love eggs. I didn't realize until the last few years how much I love them. So good. I crack two of them into the pan, stir/scramble them, just a little, form them into a patty/mound and once they are a little firmed up underneath, I flip them once, add a slice of american cheese, turn the burner off to and put the lid on to let them coast for about 15 seconds or so while I get out a plate and pull the toasted english muffin out of the toaster. Cheese is just barely melted at that point, so I lift the patty and put it on the muffin. No wasted movements. It's such a good breakfast. Moist and delicious light and soft melted cheese.

I'll happily eat eggs in any form whatsoever, but for my money, egg salad is the king.

There's an Asian place near us that offers a dish with a fried egg on top--which is heaven enough--but the way they fry the egg is to crack it straight into the deep fryer. The texture is unreal. So fucking good.

bibimbap?

We had bibimbap (sp?) a few nights ago. The gochujang (fermented chili paste) really makes it for me.
I moved my snow tires this morning and found 16 green americana eggs... asshole chicken.

Sounds incredible. I finally figured out how to make the eggs for fried rice-- loosely half-scrambling them so they're still half-runny, setting them aside, then throwing them in the rice and stuff at the very end, so the runny bits coat everything but there's some egg bits in there too.

Also, I don't know if other places do this, but in Portland nearly every food place will put an egg on top of anything.. usually, denoted by "put a bird on it"
*the Pacific Northwest version of "scattered, smothered, and covered" I suppose

Nah, this place does a weird mix of Chinese, Vietnamese, and Indian, but no Korean. They call it a "Vietnamese Rice Plate," but on less Americanized menus it's "com tam."

fargon · 10/04/2022 5:04 pm

I bought a box of Gochujang sauce it is the primary ingredient in bibimbap sauce for the dish. And it is almost gone

Eggs are fine.

I do admire Griff's carbon steel game however. Well used, as a good tool should be.

Back in my youth there was one of the 4-H leaders who would take a big cast iron frying pan with an inch of smoking hot bacon grease and crack in eggs. They would cook in seconds and were probably as unhealthy as breakfast can be but tasted soooooooo good.
