…Medium? I like them fried over easy so I can dip toast in the yolk, but the whites aren’t runny at all.
Runny whites are terrible, way undercooked. We call them snotty here, due to the consistency similarities. Nobody I know likes a snotty egg, glad you seem to be in the same boat :)
Over easy is fantastic in a sandwich with bacon, but I go for a soft-boil if dipping. Precut toast soldiers when feeling particularly childish.
At Waffle House, that’s over medium, or just an “order”. Over easy / “order lite” has some runny white.
Waffle House is just wrong in their designation then. Over light is supposed to be slightly runny whites. Sunny side up is not flipping the egg so the white on top isn’t fully cooked. Over easy is supposed to have fully cooked whites and runny yolks. Over medium is jammy yolks that won’t quickly flow out if popped.
Waffle House just is saying over light = over easy and that’s not correct.
“Over medium well” for jammy yolks if you’re lucky in California… over medium = undercooked, can’t imagine over easy
Sunny side up post to be basted with hot oil to ensure zero runny white, since runny albumen is danger town… yes?!
Gross
i like to make 2 opposite-side holes on the shell and suck it
Taking notes…
This guy really sucks eggs!
Virtually all food is gross if you think too hard about it.
Apples?
Could have a worm in it.
Or worse: Half a worm.
Engorged tree genitalia and ovaries that try to trick you into swallowing their embroys so you crap them out later.
Don’t trust them.
Huh that is pretty gross
You’re gross! 😝
Ja, groß. It’s fucking great. (Sub the toast with polenta for me.)
Those scrambled eggs are separated into small clumps. I bet they’re too dry, have overcooked bits, and weren’t mixed well.
Someone needs to go back to scrambled egg school.
And now I feel like an egg snob.
Entropy side up please
EGGGGGG SALAD
Has science gone too far?
Damn, I actually thought that was real for a sec
I like mine boiled until the yolk has the delicious consistency of earwax
Isn’t scrambled lower entropy? Like how dye in water moves from fully concentrated at one point to fully diffused throughout the water?You had to do work to scramble them and now it would take a lot more energy to get them back to separate the white from the yolk so it looked like the hard boiled.This is all completely wrong, I was thinking about Gibbs free energy decreasing with spontaneous reactions.
Ty, I had the same question
That’s what I get for being so old I forgot my thermo class
*Shakes fist at sky*
The main thing I remember from my thermodynamics classes is the day I broke the thermometer. Yup.
Lol. Closest I had to a thermo class was my AP chem in HS when the teacher told us all he was going to say about it is that it is incredibly complicated and whenever you think you’ve got it, you don’t. He was a character.

Leave too long and you’ll end up with balut
That’s the perfect amount. Too long is when it hatches.
No other food will reward you with a free duck if you forget about it 😂
Don’t discriminate based on entropy level, but each level has a best in class:
Low: Soft boiled (8:30 sec)
Medium: Over easy
High: Propper fluffy scramble (10% butter, constant whisk)
I don’t like the softness of a constant whisk. Diner style scramble. Literally crack the egg in the pan and scramble with the spatual. Dunno feels “homier”?
poached eggs tho 🤤
Haha, yeah totally get that! Also, how did I forget poached!! Okay, those tie over-easy for me
Not overcooked, not scrambled.
There is another one…
There are tons of ways to prepare eggs.
Either, eggs are amazing in all forms… but those are both overcooked.
so, when you drop an egg on the floor, you increased its entropy too much, and since entropy isn’t reversible, your dropped egg isn’t recoverable
Mmmmmm high entropy ægggggsssss
Low trophy
