yes.
I agree w/most of the things on this thread. (altho isn't a non-French omelette a "Western" omelette, or is that something else?) (and aren't scrambled eggs still FRIED, technically i.e. whack them in a pan w/butter. that means fried to me.)
I'm interested to know if lauren's technique can be described in words.

xpost - cumin is yum. a pinch of tumeric is a good addition, too, but not with this recipe.

I've started eating steak and eggs out, after years of mocking the very idea. It's actually a very nice way to kick of a day, with a big piece of steak.

donut egg is a dealbreaker.

I just tried to poach eggs to eat on top of braised collard greens and lentils. I followed this cook book I have, added vinegar to the water, simmering but wasn't too hot, And I ended up with egg white every where, sort egg drop soup. So I tried again using a ladle to poach the egg and it worked, but when I tried to slide the egg out of the ladle it stuck and the yolk broke. I feel defeated.

maybe try half fry/half poach with the "cover the egg with the lid of a pot" trick?
― Philip Nunez, Wednesday, 19 February 2014 04:17 (ten years ago) link
jacob do you do the swirly thing when you drop the egg into the water?
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 19 February 2014 04:18 (ten years ago) link
yeah get a wide deep pan & get a whirlpool going
you'll still get stray whites but they'll hold together much better combined w the vinegar

Get a whirl/swirl going? I'd never heard of that!
― JacobSanders, Wednesday, 19 February 2014 04:35 (ten years ago) link
I do the "fry with a lid" thing all the time w/ my cast iron. perfect. soft scrambled is just as good, though.

I use the lid with omelets and fried eggs, but I had never tried poached. I never guessed it was as involved as it now seems. The cook book I have only said gently slide the eggs in the water and keep a spatula in hand to push any white that stray together. But once they stray they don't just congeal back together?? A friend once cooked poached eggs for me and I didn't see his process but they were beautiful disc that sat perfectly on english muffins.
