Unless it's hard boiled, which is necessary for a good number of excellent salads.
Well, that's true. And I'm already on record for the hard boiled eggs in salad trick. NSM, hardboiled eggs suspended in aspic.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

And personally, I'd far rather have a slightly overdone yolk than any amount of undercooked white. Texture issues.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
At work, we make scrambled eggs in the microwave.

Yolk should not be solid.
Smonster, my mother used to have an egg poaching pan, like this: [link] which might be more durable than a coddler, but give similar results.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I had scrambled eggs this morning and I cooked them as advised and they came out great! Served them with hot sausage and the SO's salsa I canned and nom was achieved.
We used to eat eggs sunny side up easy over raw beef sliced thin over rice with a shoyu based sauce. It was so good. But obviously prior to the current health recommendations.
Green Eggs and Ham is apropos because one of our little schools just celebrated Dr. Seuss day!

Gah! I'm working on an installation in Orlando that is outdoors and the temps are in the high 40's. This is SO not right!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That's exactly the egg poaching pan my husband has and uses quite frequently.

egg poaching pan
Oh, my mom has something like that! It's basically just the poaching insert bit (so you can use it in any skillet or chef's pan).
I have a set of soft silicone bowls from Target that are great for poaching eggs. (I know you can just dump the eggs into the water, but I've never been able to shape them properly that way.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
mmm. The Chinese delivery place near me has delicious food. I even eat the vegetables, that's how good it is. Except for the celery, of course.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I am with Hec, JZ, and Barb on the egg love. I could eat them every day and be happy. I love them every which way.
Liese, that egg dish sounds yummy!
Now I want eggs.
