Project Say Something!: Scrambled, Please
Kim’s question: Here is some background to this question: I don't know if you have seen Runaway Bride, but in it, she finds that she molds herself to every guy she gets involved with. At some point she is asked what her favorite type of eggs are and she didn't know. So by the end of the movie she has tried many different types of eggs and decided on her favorite.
So, my question is, what egg types have you tried, and what is your favorite?
I have not seen Runaway Bride but, lucky for me, I knew what my favorite eggs were long before any man came along. Well, okay, except my dad. He used to eat “fried eggs” when we would have pancakes, or French toast, or waffles on the weekends. My mom would only make them for him. Every once in a great while, we could sucker her in to making a few more so we could have some. But that was rare. They were so yummy. I have, on occasion, made them myself after moving away from home. Of course, they’re just not the same. But they’re so good. So if I were picking a favorite type egg, it would be my dad’s fried eggs. Or, as I’ve heard them called, “over-medium?” No one knows what I’m talking about when I say fried so I always have to explain what I mean. But then they never tell me what the right term is so I’ll just keep describing when I order them that way.
However, as far as the type of eggs I eat most often, the kind I will order in a restaurant or make for myself – scrambled. They’re much easier to get right. And when they’re not right, they’re still edible. And with cheese??? Mmmm. Yum.
I generally like eggs. Hard-boiled, especially at Easter. It makes me cringe thinking about it, but I even like the soft-boiled, really mushy eggs. Though I don’t think I could ever do poached. The idea of that makes me much more than cringe. Kim said her answer was eggs benedict. I just couldn’t do it. Cook the eggs a bit more and I’d be all over it, I’m sure.
It’s a good thing I’d already established my egg of choice. Dan doesn’t like eggs at all. Could you imagine?? Glad I had that decision made before some man came along, this one in particular apparently.
