Best way to eat Eggs?

hard boiled eggs

A fool proof method for hard boiled eggs.

Cover eggs with 1 – 2 inches of water.

Bring to a boil and then turn off the heat
and let sit for 10 minutes.

Then drain hot water, fill with cold water
and ice and let sit for 5 minutes.

Drain cold water and pat dry you eggs.

Peeling hard boiled eggs is easier for eggs
that are ‘aged’ as farm fresh eggs will be
difficult to peal . . . I don’t know why, it’s just
is that way.

they don't even like to be cracked.....it like the membrane under the shell
is stronger or something...ehhh

I prefer to crack 10 eggs into a bowl, remove the yolks as im cracking, and then just cook them all in a nonstick pan with no oil or butter. I eat 10 egg whites and 2 cups of oatmeal every dayu for breakfast.

 

[n3mo0101]

My girlfriend microwaves them, but they get super fluffy so I wouldn't recommend that if you are eating more than 3-4 egg whites.

The old thinking was that you had to cook them but it appears raw is the best way to get all the nutrients.

**broken link removed**

"The best way to consume eggs, provided they come from a high-quality source, is to not cook them at all, which is why my advanced nutrition plan recommends eating your eggs raw. In the beginner plan, however, eggs are still included, and you can prepare them anyway you like them. Less "well done" eggs are vastly preferable, such as poached, soft-boiled, or over-easy with very runny yolks.

It’s important to consume egg yolks that are only lightly cooked, as the heat will damage many of the highly perishable nutrients in the yolk. Two raw egg yolks have antioxidant properties equivalent to half a serving of cranberries (25 grams) and almost twice as many as an apple. But the antioxidant properties are reduced by about 50 percent when the eggs are fried or boiled, and reduced even more if they're microwaved.17

Additionally, the cholesterol in the yolk can be oxidized with high temperatures, especially when it is in contact with the iron present in the whites and cooked, as in scrambled eggs, and such oxidation contributes to chronic inflammation in your body. For this reason, scrambled eggs are one of the worst ways to prepare eggs if you want them to be healthy."

I read that many years ago and for years I just used to crack them open and pour them in my mouth. Now I clock them in a pan always preserving the yolks. Nothing healthier than egg yolks. Organic non-gmo of course.

franks red hot sauce is key... eggs taste gross in large amounts to me without it... usually eat 6 whole...

putting them in a sandwich or, even better, a warm tortilla is great switch up too with some chopped up peppers and onions

 

[machinemind]

Place eggs in a pot with water just covering them

Bring to a boil with lid on

As soon as it boils take it off the heat and let it sit.

6 minutes for soft boiled (*personal preference)

10 minutes for hard boiled

There's no better way to ruin an egg than to leave it on the heat when it's boiling.

BONUS method for the BEST scrambled eggs. Cook them off heat also. Get the pan hot with your preferred oil, crack eggs into it whole, then take off heat and stir as soon as they start setting. Place it on the heat for 10 seconds, take off for 30 seconds and stir/fold, on, off, on, off until you attain the perfect texture. DO NOT leave it on heat until it's done. Eggs are best cooked with residual heat, any way you cook them. Adding something cold to get them to STOP cooking is best, creme fraiche, butter, salsa, etc.

A little baking soda in the boiling water will help eggs to peel easier

 

[heavyhitter]

Crack them in the pan with a bit of butter on medium high. Squirt a little sriracha on top. Then when you flip them the sriracha gets cooked into it and it's delicious

 

[heavyhitter]

Also....scramble them with some green chilies, corn, and black beans

5 whole eggs 2 slices American cheese scrambled soft with some sea salt and black pepper

 

[brucepancake]

is this still true with pasteurized egg whits?

Eggs actually have a higher bioavailbility and more digestibility when cooked. I just scramble mine in the pan and add some hot sauce or seasonings .

 

[nothuman]

Eating RAW eggs is bad for digestion.

Certainly not true if you use free range or another kind of healthier egg option.

if you want to be a total egotistical douche about your eggs..

Egg white-grilled chicken omelet with a side of salsa is the way to go

 

[xyz14]

bfast: 2 eggs as an omelette in between 2 regularly fried eggs. Proscuitto or serrano ham on top. Sometimes i add half of a slice of leerdammer cheese under the fried eggs to make them crispy and the sond half i put into the omelette to make it more creamy. Top it with pepper, sriracha and mustard. Seems complicated but it doesnt really take much more time.

[Sgmistress]

That looks great.
