Which is the best way to cook eggs, with butter or without?

>> No.10097539

I could go either way.

I do enjoy scrambled eggs cooked in a non-stick pan with no fat.

Butter is good for omlettes.

i do scrambled eggs but i add some milk and cheese so more of a scrambled omelette

>> No.10097680

I ran out of milk recently when I made scrambled eggs and used some butter instead, and they came out better than usual. The next time I used 3tbsp of butter (for 5 eggs) and no milk and it came out better yet. Butter > milk IMO.

I don't use butter, but I do use heavy cream. Makes the fuckers so fluffy and delicious. I perfected omelets that way.

I've only ever eaten scrambled eggs and hardboiled.

Scrambled eggs and omelettes must have enough regular butter. Fried eggs are best with clarified butter, or a good oil like rice bran or avocado oil.

cooking them in butter or at least vegetable oil means I don't have to add any fat to the rice at all, other than a little sesame for flavor

How are you even comparing the two? This is like saying olive oil is better than mustard. They serve two completely different rolls.

>> No.10098731

>>10097867
Same with you retard. What is wrong with you people??? Is it because they are dairy you mongs think they serve the same purpose?
>i made pizza and topped it with cheese instead of oregano...it came out so much better. Cheese is better than oregano imo

If you want to cook an egg without oil or butter, just boil them.

>> No.10098794

coddling them is even better and easier, imo
fuck peeling eggs
all the gay little tricks people suggest (add vinegar, add baking soda, add salt, crack both ends and blow on it, shake it around in a pot, shock them in ice water, peel them under running water, use old eggs) have NEVER worked for me and I can never fucking figure out why

If you're not frying your eggs in enough lard for them freely skate around the pan, then you are literally doing it wrong.

you don't need to do that to stop your eggs sticking.

Just enough vegetable oil to make them movable.

Sausages first, then any sauteed potatoes, then bacon, then eggs. The other crap like mushrooms can be done whenever, and hash browns are an americanism and should just be thrown in the bin.

Beans in the microwave when you've got the sausages on, toast in with the eggs.
Fried bread is last, so it soaks up all those delicious flavours in the oil. Black pudding counts as a sausage.
