I have.

They are better with eggs that have some crispy, lacey, texture and flavor from being fried over medium in bacon grease.  

And instead of hollandaise,  use some bacon  gravy.

And instead of the ham, use some bacon or sausage.

And instead of the muffin, use a biscuit.

I call that a missed opportunity. Had It been fried in bacon grease you'd be onto something. As it stands... failure. For the sake of the poll though, over medium

So then, nothing even close to an eggs benny.

Once you pour that gravy over the top, you won’t taste the eggs at all.

Oh contraire mon frere.

The runny yolk mixes with the gravy and makes magic. Seriously.

Eggs Benedict is OK. I just don't care for poached eggs. Too soft.

Besides, I can't really have hollandaise. Used to love the stuff but it caused havoc with my partial.

Went to the dentist and he asked straight away if I'd been eating eggs Benedict. I said, "Yeah, why"?

He said my partial needed to be chromed. I'd never heard such a thing.

He said, "There's no plate like chrome for the hollandaise".

Now you done it



Add a teaspoon of white vinegar to a small pot of water. Crack one or two eggs into a small bowl. When the water reaches a gentle boil, swirl it with a spoon and drop the eggs into the center of the swirling water. Maintain your water temperature so that it just slightly bubbles - you don't want it to boil too hard or get too cold. Immediately set your timer for exactly 3 minutes. When the timer goes off, remove the eggs at once, using a slotted spoon to let water drain from the eggs.

If the eggs are for personal consumption, you're all done. Serve them however you like. If they are for company, you may wish to blot off excess water with a paper towel and perhaps trim the whites a bit with kitchen shears to make a more desirable presentation.

If the above procedure is followed, it will result in a perfectly done egg, whites set and cooked but not rubbery, and a cooked but flowing yolk. Some here might say that it produces a "dippy" egg. I would not be one of those people, however.

You can do the same in the microwave.  Place the egg in a bowl with enough water to cover it and nuke for 50 seconds. Cooking them properly in a pan is the preferred method though.

“Over medium” eggs, you said.  That’s got very little runny yolk. Sounds like “over easy” is your jam.

They are over easy.  The whites are set, but the yolk is runny.

If the yolks were more jellied, they’d be over medium.

When the eggs still have runny whites, they are sunny side up.

Poll fail.

An over easy egg is an egg that’s been fried on one side only & both the white & yellow are runny. The egg in the pictures has been flipped over & fried on both sides & is thus an over medium egg.

Dippy egg? Good grief.

On the other hand,  I had my Eggs Benedict come out with very runny whites - and I just couldn't eat it.  I would much rather have overcooked a bit than undercooked!

Also,  apparently a lot of GD needs to study this picture and learn what Sunny Side Up vs Over Easy means

“Over medium” absolutely has something to do with the condition of the white, it is firm.  The yolk should be slightly runny.  Please forgive my omission of the word “slightly” in my post above.

Here is an excerpt from a document published by CIA in Hyde Park.  I’m sure all of you experts have heard of it.

There are several TV chefs that have commented that cooking an egg to order is a test they do on newbs.

Gordon Ramsey has ripped a few contestants on his shows with that test.  One guy couldn’t even boil an egg right.

People are particular about their fried eggs and it definitely takes practice to be a good egg cook. Most everyone struggled with fried egg doneness at cook school.

I know two different people who were asked to cook egg dishes when they were first interviewing for jobs out of culinary school.

That was the first test on one of those competition cooking shows. They had to make scrambled eggs.

A classic French omelette has (and should continue to be) a litmus test for one’s skills at the range.

So, too, is demonstrating proper knife skills.  If one can reproduce these basic (check out this random link I found online ) shapes over and over, then one has decent knife skills

I still have nightmares about having to crank out large quantities of vegetables tournés. Just when you think you’ve got it down, a hungover (or perhaps drunk) Frenchman tells you your work is shit and throws it all in the trash.  Oh, now you only have 20 minutes to make new ones and you’re still not done with the rest of your mise.
