How do you like your eggs?

Omelettes must include feta cheese. Other ingredients are optional. I also like feta in scrambled eggs. I add Tabasco for a bit of kick.
I wil eat eggs in practically any form, though.

Like this.

  1. Cook up some breakfast sausage, or maybe some hot Italian sausage… brats would be good, too. Of course, bacon works well… some center cut, or maybe some of that great thick-cut stuff, or a big 'ole slab of regular bacon… boy, peppered bacon sounds good, too… (it’s almost like ‘alternative’ pastrami). Whatever you use, drain it well on a big pile of paper towels.
  2. Get a pan up to 250 degrees. Put a bit of that grease from step one in it (doesn’t need to be much, just enough to cover the whole area).
  3. Throw in a whole bunch of EXTREMELY BEATEN eggs. Beat 'em, Dammit! Get that air into them! Show them who the boss is! Then, scramble them for a couple of minutes, tops. They’ll keep cooking a bit after they’re out of the pan, so don’t overdo it.
    Try the eggs that are Omega 3 heavy… a little more expensive, but we’re talking EGGS here, not a variable mortgage.
  4. Do up a batch of hash browns. Ore-Idas Southern style work… you can spray some stuff like PAM into the pan, and they won’t stick… one flip only, please.
  5. Put it all on a plate. Mix as desired.

This is a small way to celebrate life. Hey, Julia Child didn’t have the most healthy recipes ever. And she was around 90 when she died.

Oh, yeah, don’t do it too often… and get your exercise!

I’m not sure if there’s any way you can traditionally prepare eggs that I won’t eat, but I do know that (a) the only eggs I prepare at home are omelets, and (b) the only eggs I ever order out are Eggs Benedict.

Over easy: Salt and pepper, soft around the edges, with plenty of runny yolk. Served atop hash browns. Mmmmm!

Scrambled: Mix in parmesan and cheddar cheese, a dash of lemon-pepper seasoning and a tablespoon of sour cream. Keep agitated (the eggs, dummy, not you!) while they cook; when plated, spoon home-made salsa over the top. Wowzers!

Hard-boiled: Peel while still piping hot, mash in a teaspoon of butter per egg, salt and pepper to taste, spread over toasted English muffin with a patty of hot sausage. Scrumpdillicious!
