If you order eggs"over easy" the whites will be runny
View Quote


No. That’s sunny side up. The over means turn the egg over to finish the whites to solid.

There is no “over” with sunny side up as the egg isn’t turned over and whites still a little loose.

IDK what the hell kind of eggs I make according to GD.

I do sunny side up (no flipping), then cover the cast iron pan and pour in the tiniest amount of water for a few seconds to steam over the yolk and set the whites on top so it isn't like snot. The yolks are still runny and good for dipping though.

Over medium is just slightly more cooked, is just levels of fried egg. Pictured eggs pretty much what you gonna get ordering over easy, but headed toward medium. Over hard would be a set yolk.

Over means you flip the egg over to completely cook the egg white

Easy means the yolk is runny

Medium means the yolk is soft and starting to set

Hard is a fully cooked yolk

Fuck arfcom sucks at food.

Those are over easy. Medium means the yolk has started to set so there’s firm yellow at the periphery of the yolk. Borderline acceptable on a breakfast sandwich.

Sunny side up should just barely be past runny whites, achieved with a lid or pan top while cooking. No white over the yolk which most cooks mess up. If you’re from a weird place in the country you can call these dippy.

Over hard should be thrown in the trash.

Poached should have firm white and runny yolk. People who serve poached eggs with solid yolks should be punched in the cock. If my eggs Benedict doesn’t explode all over my plate I’m sending it back.

Could also be steamed. Add a tablespoon of water and cover no flip. Yields the same result.

Sometimes when I fry eggs 1  yolk  will break but the others don't so I'm eating 3 sunnyside up and 1 hard all at the same time.

You might be already, but break them on a flat surface, narrow side pointed slightly up. Never a pan or bowl edge.

I usually give up if I break one and opt for scramblers.

My wife chops scrambled into tiny bits and cooks it until you can smell burnt eggs. That is gross.

Over medium

If the whites are still a bit runny as well then it's over easy.

I'll take either. Just none of that crispy, powdery yolk nonsense

My first job was slinging eggs at a breakfast joint.
Over easy to me was white was just firm and very gooey yolk.
If you wanted runny whites that was over light.
