My grandpa taught me to cook eggs this way 75 years ago. We used to cook eggs together every sunday, it’s one of my most heartwarming memories. Last year he got diagnosed with leukemia and sadly he passed away after fighting a long fight. Now every time I see eggs like this it reminds me of those great times we spent together. Thanks for reminding me of such a great memory of my grandpa that I’ll always cherish. ❤️

Been making my eggs this way (with lid on top) for over 20 yrs now. I use to make them over easy where I'd flip them and they came out great, but this way with the lid on top makes sure there are no broken egg yolks from the flipping! Thanks so much for sharing with everyone!

I like to put my eggs in a cold glass of water before using. If they sink, that is good. If they start to float, I toss them out. Then also crack eggs single into a separate bowl, just in case. If you crack a single bad egg into a bowl of other eggs, now the whole lot is contaminated. I don't put the seasoning on until the eggs are in the pan. I find putting the seasoning and pepper on while in the bowl leads to uneven seasoning. The salt and pepper tend to gather in clumped up areas. Put the eggs in the pan and season and pepper from higher up to get equal seasoning across the eggs. You can see at 2:33, the black pepper has gathered to one area of the yolk, that is what happens when adding the salt and pepper to the eggs when they are in the bowl. I like to use my well seasoned cast iron for cooking eggs. Thinking about buying a carbon steel pan to try out. Most of the time, I also like to use the lid to steam the top while the bottom side fries. Or sometimes I will leave the lid off and then cook the eggs flipping them over near the end of the cook for an 'over-easy or over-medium' fried egg.

I only use butter to fry my eggs and I flip mine, no lid (I like the butter on both sides!). I always make a solid white, runny yolk and no crispy edges. I like the edges white. The bacon comes out perfect in the oven, especially nice if you're cooking for a crowd! You can fit a lot in the oven.

I do it the same way with the cover, however I cook some cut up ham and mushrooms in the pan while it’s heating up. This heats up the cover too. Then I cook my eggs on top of the ham and mushrooms, with the cover on of course. Excellent!

looks good. I keep a jar of grass-fed ghee by my cooktop, and that works well, and could replace the veggie-oil+butter combo.

My grandparents were from Spain and this is the way my Mom and family always made eggs EXCEPT with olive oil only. 💃🏻 Nice and crispy on the edges and a runny yolk.

So simple but actually really imformative! Thanks!!

I just tried this exact method 5 minutes ago, to the T. Worked almost perfectly. The only change I'll make is adding the seasoning, quickly after putting eggs in the pan. There's more surface area in the pan than in a bowl, for a more even distribution. I had bites with a lot of salt and some without. Other than that, the cook on the egg was exactly as we sunny siders love. Thank you so much. Too many other explanations leave stuff out, or add unnecessary steps, like adding water. There's enough moisture in eggs to create steam when covered. No need for water.

Just made them and they were awesome! Needed to put the burner on medium on my stovetop. Happy Thanksgiving!

Perfectly cooked!!! Thank you!!!! Wow

I'm an old-fashioned cast iron skillet girl myself. One who likes the runny yolk but can't stand for the white to be raw, and no crispy edges. I'll stick to flipping the way I was taught. And of course, bacon grease gives eggs a powerful amount of flavour. I only use butter for scrambled eggs. If you have a good, well seasoned skillet and a good, old-fashioned spatula, you can practice flipping eggs as I did when I was a girl, though I was standing in a chair to reach the stove top.

as a 12 year old this will help me in the future

I always learn something new from Julia.

I felt so happy that I now know the way to fry eggs to perfection, glory be to you. Best wishes !

This technique is good, I do this when I'm in a hurry because it's the closest to set it and forget it. But I actually prefer more oil/butter version that crisps up the edges and you get a nice crunchy saltiness with the runny egg. Much more difficult to time, works great with a large wok.

Love you Julia - you’re a fantastic presenter. 🇺🇸❤️

Back in college in the '70s I worked one winter as breakfast fry cook in a diner frequented by truckers. I learned to love eggs that year. The most common order was Over Easy and I became a flipping guru. My personal favorite was Basted Eggs made on a cast iron grill. I would put a hash brown ring (no nicks in edges) on the grill and pour in a dollop of Whirl (imitation butter oil). After letting it that heat for a moment I would do the following all in one motion. Room temperature eggs poured from a bowl into the hash brown ring, a cup of crushed ice shaken out just outside the ring, and an inverted pie tin was pressed down over the whole thing. We had a regular pie tin with a drawer pull attached to the bottom, a homemade tool. Press down until the steam just stops, maybe 30 seconds, and scoop up the perfectly done eggs. I have not been able to replicate these basted eggs on a cast iron pan of home grill. The flipping skills though, they never went away.

The perfect fried egg, well that depends on individual taste. I like mine with NO browning, whites set, and yolk runny. My trick to that is just a slow cook with a very careful turn - and of course a pan that won't allow the egg to stick..

@greyeaglem

If you ordered these in a restaurant, you would ask for basted eggs. Over easy get flipped over and sunny side up have uncooked white over the yolk.

Nice video. But I differ with you on a few things: Feel free to crack and eggs directly into the hot skillet...because I flip my fried eggs. And the time it takes to place one egg after another into the pan happens to be the exact amount of time it takes to flip all your eggs, so yokes all come out as runny as the next. Steaming the tops of the eggs just to turn them white is like laying bricks without mortar. Flipping the egg while the white is still a little loose allows you the "fry" the egg on both sides. Sure, the 15 seconds you leave it flipped won't really fry the egg top that much, but it does taste better. After all you're making fried eggs, not half fried/half-steamed eggs. Yes, flipping eggs is a skill, but it only takes a few tries with good utensils. If you have a tired non-stick skillet, it will be more difficult, but nothing that can't be solved with a little more oil/butter. To my tastes, however, nothing tastes better than a fried egg from a stainless steel skillet (even more practice).You can even get good results from an iron skillet but the finish needs to be polished.

Question. So these look like “over easy” eggs to me, which is perfectly fine, but I actually prefer my yolks slightly less runny, so I order my eggs “over medium”. Could I still use this method to cook my yolks a bit longer, but not fry the edges of my whites too much? To my knowledge, like at a restaurant over easy eggs are put on the skillet for a while, then flipped and cooked for a very short time. Over medium eggs are cooked the exact same way except after flipping, they’re just cooked for a little bit longer. The yolks are still runny, but just not quite as runny ya know.

@Seaoftea

2 жыл бұрын

Over easy, means that you flip them "over" once and cook them on both sides. It's a more difficult method than the way Julia does it because you risk breaking the egg during the flip. This is considered sunny side up. If you leave the eggs in the pan slightly longer after removing them from the heat you will get anywhere between a medium to a hard yolk depending on the length of time it sits in the pan. With a little practice you won't have to time anything, you will know when they are ready by looking at the top of the egg and by giving the pan a little wiggle. Once the eggs whites stop being opaque you have an easy egg. Wait a little bit longer, and shake the pan to see how done the yokes are, if they jiggle just a little you have medium eggs, if they don't jiggle at all you have hard eggs.

@bubbalo3388

Use a little butter in a nonstick pan and heat on medium just till hot but not so hot that the butter browns. You want it hot enough so that when you put your egg in it sizzles lightly. You may have to cook a few to get a feel on how hot your stove and pan heats and make a little adjustment. If you cook your eggs with no sizzle then the whites won't be as tender. If you cook with too much sizzle then the whites get a little leathery. You want just a little sizzle. Eggs are done when whites are firm enough where you can get a spatula under it or the whites aren't clear anymore. It also helps if you break the white and let it spread out after the egg has cooked about 20 seconds to even the cooking. If you want the white on top to be cooked also, then place a lid on top for little or put on plate and microwave for about 8 seconds or so depending on how powerful your microwave is.
