/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Honestly, if it's your first, something basic, like an ommelete. some prefer sunny side up. Definitely not hard boiled cuz' that's the shittiest. Fun thing with eggs is it's easy to make an egg taste entirely different.

why the fuck did you never try an egg?

Put egg over heat until they are as you would like them. Then remove them from heat

shove em up yer ASS XD
but boil em first :O

You've gotta be 18 to post on 4chan, so if what you're saying is true, you've lived 18+ years on this planet and have never tried to eat an egg before?? Your mother must be one of those welfare McDonald dollar menu queens.

Make an omelette and fill it up with whatever your favorite savory ingredients are

Eggdogs, anon

>>14199385
i'm gonna be honest, i was a super picky eater my whole life, and eggs were one of the foods i said i would never eat, but this year i started cooking and trying more foods and shit.

>>14199394
What kinda absolute fucking hellhole do you live in where eggs are more expensive than McDonalds?

>>14199407
You tell me! You're the one who's parents didn't love you enough to make you eat normal food.

>>14199394
i am actually 19, and my mother always did cook for me, the problem is i was always a lazy faggot and never cooked for myself, and was also a picky eater. I know the thread seems like LARP, but i am serious.

>>14199402
My man, eggs are the perfect food, you should eventually try some with onions, tomatoes. I add sour cream in mine. Eggs with bacon are great. Hot Sauce...uhhhhh...honestly anything

Eggs are fucking amazing, you're gonna experience a whole world of possibilities

Consider just getting an egg mcmuffin or some shit, there's no need to make a big deal out of losing your egg virginity

>>14199411
I'm not OP, you retard. Holy shit the absolute state of American Education.

>>14199430
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

>>14199426
Please don't do this. Legit can't think of anything more depressing than eating eggs at mcdonalds

>>14199426
>OP wants to try one of the legitimately best tasting basic foods in the world for the first time
>durhur just go get dogshit fast food ones that are drier than a nun's pussy flaps

>>14199424
yeah, looked up some images of eggs online and they look delicious honestly.
>>14199436
egg mcmuffins looks pretty terrible ngl

I have eggs for breakfast pretty much every day. It started out as a training thing because I was on a strength program, now it's just a habit. The great thing about having eggs for breakfast though, is that there are so many ways to serve them. Some days I'll make an omelette, some days I'll make fried eggs, some days scrambled eggs, you name it my man, I can do it. I'm the egg man.

>>14199413
Why did your mother never make you eat all the eggs? What DID you eat?

>>14199458
The only reason why I don't eat eggs every morning night and day is because I tend to eat like 5 eggs a pop.

Oh yea, OP, don't only eat one egg, make like 3-ish, especially if you're going for an omelette

If I had to live off of two foods for the rest of my life, it would be eggs and rice. Eggs are versatile and delicious. Rice is the same.

A lot of children don't like runny yolks and prefer their eggs scrambled. As their taste buds mature, some grow to love runny yolk.

I'd suggest you start out as a kid would, with a basic scrambled egg. Serve on toast or make an egg sandwich. Easy and quick and the best intro into the world of eggs. Maybe some day you'll get brave enough to fry an egg and put it on top of whatever it is you're making. Like egg on burger, or ramen or rice.

>eat all the eggs
based

>>14199463
Right now I have two eggs for breakfast, but when I was training I was having three or four. I usually make something with the eggs though, the omelette is of course filled, or with fried eggs I will fry some mushrooms or onions or whatever. Served on bread of course.

get these instead

>>14199558
JUST

>>14199355
I like boiling them. Just boil them in some water with a bit of salt. No clean up, no smell and the most filling for me.

>>14199355
Virginity: Scrambled eggs in buttered pan
Striking Out: Hard boiled
Adventure: Over easy
Belly of the Whale: Deviled
Actualization: Omelet with veggies and meat

OP here, the eggs arive at my house in 6 hours, i will make 3, 2 boiled, and 1 scrambled, if i like them i will consume more. If you have any more ideas post them, thanks for the ideas so far.

>>14199673
Carbonara, just add some cream and cheddar to your eggs

>>14199424
Second this. I always put sriracha on mine

>>14199724
i dunno man, that looks kinda weird. What's a good recipe for it?

I wish I could experience eggs like they were new to me, I fuckin love eggs so much, they're damn near a perfect food

Kinda jelly op

>>14199750
mix egg with cheese and some cream, pepper salt
cook pasta
pout egg mixture over pasta and mix

>>14199753
OP here, people ITT really seem to be hyping eggs up, the suspense is killing me now lol
i hope theyre as good as i'm told they are.

>>14199783
try two different cooking/steaming times for your boiled eggs. they can be waxy or more crumbly, some Africans even cook eggs until the yolk gets brown.

OP here, 3 more hours until the eggs arrive, i will soft boil one, and hard boil another. And i will scramble the third egg, i can post pictures in itt if you want.

bump

>>14199991
i'm excited

>>14200176
i dont know if this post is sarcastic or not, but i am too. The eggs arive in 20 minutes. Like i said, i cant post pictures of finished eggs.

>>14200208
No it's not sarcastic, please update when you try the eggs

protip, salt makes everything better

>>14199355
scrambled with cheese. you can up the cool factor with some ham chunks and onion and bell peppers.

OP here, sorry for the delay. I didn't have time to boil any, but i did scramble one. It tastes so fucking good, not joking this is one of the best things I've ever eaten. I know the picture is kinda blurry, sorry.

>>14200631
I stayed awake till 3 am for this and it did not disappoint

>>14200631
>OP delivered
oh shit

This one's going in the annals

>>14200631
ENJOY ! YOU DISCOVERED A NEW FLAVOUR, REMEMBER THIS FEELING. SPREAD THE JOY OF COOKING WITH THOSE YOU VALUE AND KEEP CLOSE TO YOU.

OP here, i ate all the eggs (i only made one egg) and it tasted great, i made 3 more eggs, and this time i added black pepper and salt, and cooked them in butter. They tasted even better, this is one of the best foods i've eaten, and it definitely lived up to the hype. Thank you to all who posted in this thread, this was fun.
>>14200708
i will spread the joys of cooking, now that i have truly felt it. Once again, thanks.

>>14199394
my grandfather never ate an egg his entire life.

bump

>>14200787
these look disgusting. Never cook again.

>>14200787
you can try an overeasy fried egg next, or an omelette if you want to stick with the scrambled style

>>14199600
egg

>>14199355
>what's the best way to cook them for someone who hasnt had them before
all the ways.

>>14200631
>>14200787
Now that you know american scrambled, you gotta try french scrambled, country omelet, french omelet, poached, fried, sunny side up, soft boiled, and hard boiled.

You can use these methods to make shakshuka, egg salad, fried eggs on burgers, omurice, eggs benedict, salade nicoise, egg fried rice, ramen, deviled eggs, and this is just the beginning.

Then you can move onto custard, hollandaise, beurre blanc, meringue, quiche/frittata, shirred eggs, carbonara, and the rest of the world of eggs as thickeners and sauces rather than fried on their own. There is so much egg to love. I love egg.

>>14201192
Except I wrote beurre blanc when I meant to write bearnaise.
>being unemployed and out of the kitchen for two months

based and cholesterol pilled

OP here, i just tried a hard boiled egg, fucking delicious, better than scrambled. I made 2, one of them i ate warm, the other is in the fridge cooling. I will eat it when it's cold, i cant post an update in the thread if you want.

OP, please keep sharing your eggsperiences with me, its making me eggstatic.
Eggs are eggcellent!

>>14199458
>I'm the egg man.

I hope you like the taste of butter

>>14199355
>never had eggs before
I don't belif

I saved this thread last night before leaving so that I could come back and see how OP did with his egg discovery. I gotta say, it's actually quite wholesome how some anons here were so encouraging and happy to share the love of cooking with OP.

You guys can be so fucking cute sometimes. I love this place. Congrats, OP. You part of the egg-lovers club like the rest of us.
