Ok, first I do not like a runny fried egg. Just something about it, maybe texture, I do not care for. But, I made my normal breakfast of hard boiled eggs this morning and set the wrong time. Rushing to eat before work, I peeled them and noticed it felt soft. Whatever no time left to dabble into what my culinary skills have created. Salt and peppered I cut into the first egg releasing a flood of yolk. Cursing myself for what foul thing I created , I contemplated throwing it in the trash. Yet I was hungry and no time to cook anything else before work. Sticking my nose in the air I took my first bite....and let out an audible moan of delight. For some reason only known to the culinary Gods, I was in heaven. From now on, this is the way.

Discovering the soft boiled egg is one of the pure events in someone's life. Just a wonderful experience.
IsolatedAsshole
The superior boiled egg.
NagateTanikaze
I'll have stir-fried, hard boiled, omelette, heck even raw with rice. I don't mind runny, but if it's boiled it's gotta be all the way.
byohzzrd
Poached egg on burgers, runny yolk fried on toast, soft boiled with ramen, real carbonara... Dang, thanks OP I'm hungry now.
ButtPlunger69
Takes a bit of time but making a ramen egg is delightful. Delicious jammy yolk and the whites take on alot of flavor from the marinade

Put that shit on toast and it changed breakfast for me.
Dailywitchery
Cooked white, runny yolk. Manna really.
lostandlooking
yo im happy for you op.
donkeyDD
Pin hole in the top before cooking. 7-7:30 minutes in boiling water. Quickly cool off in cold water. Shell comes off easy 90% of the time.
DigYourselfBaby
I also put a couple drops of vinegar in the water - it keeps anything from leaking out of the shell.
HeyOP
Might be time to revisit sunnyside up or over easy. Setting the whites with a sunnyside up would probably solve your issues.

My father convinced me to eat well done steaks my whole life. Had my first rare steak at 28. I hate the time I have lost..

Oh yeah, soft boiled, mash with a fork to make little cubes of egg white bathed in yolk, little salt......

I learned to make sous vide eggs, now I can have a pasteurized softboiled egg on demand. I keep a stock in my fridge. Perfect way to kick
tesseract4d2
Instant ramen up a notch, even better if you sous vide some chicken thigh too.
Toshfam
Runny yolks are great, it's the runny whites that I dont like.
Iwouldbenick
Ill take them all. Whenever my gf cooks and asks "are these done enough?" that means they are already overcooked.
greatdanelivestock
This! The runny white is to snot like!
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
Same. Sunny-side up for the win!
IgnisInvictus
Yeah... I've had eggs sunny side up, served damned near raw on top, white, yolk, whole damn egg. That's just friggin disgusting.

Get yourself a Sous Vide Cooker... 300g steak seasoned with salt, pepper and olive oil into a bag and cooked for 4h ( 24h+ works too ? ) ¹
Durahl
@ 54°C - Take out of bag, give it a quick wipe to remove excess juice and sear on each side on high heat for like 30sec - Done. Like this ²

you can basically prepare it at the evening ( bags filled with contents ) and yeet them into the Sous Vide when you leave the house to ³

Murican? Parts of Europe so love the soft boiled egg that they have egg cups and little utensils to consume them. :)
IgnisInvictus
Dude tried to eat what he thought was a hard boiled egg with a fork. I promise you, this didn't happen in the States.
nNeverKnowsBest
I eat them with a fork on a plate with salt and pepper.
siccoyote
You guys don't have Egg-Cups?
nNeverKnowsBest
My parents have an eye cup but it is not the same thing as an egg cup.
IgnisInvictus
They're not common. Most people don't know they exist. We have a weird thing where we're proud that we "don't know the right fork".

Not everyone is proud of not knowing the right fork. I’m not. It causes me quite a bit of anxiety.

Grandma always called them "cuppie eggs." I'm over 45 and yet still call them that instead of "poached." I'm pretty sure they're the ones.
dunlapk33331415
Did she have a special pan she cooked them in? There was an insert in my gram's pan that had 4 circular openings that each held a special...

Yep. But maybe 6? Grandpa sold "Saladmaster" pans. 50 years later they're still going strong.

Easy poached egg: In a glass measuring cup put 2 cups of water, 1 tbsp white vinegar, 1 egg. Microwave 90s. Fish out poached egg.
telemonianajax
.
onlyalurker
i'm going to give that a try myself ... plain tap temperature or tap hot?
captbananapants
Lukewarm/cold tap water. And the amount of water doesn't matter, just a half table spoon of vinegar per cup of water.
onlyalurker
totally gonna try this. previous ... experiments ... on the stove were less than satisfactory lol it's like i'm hungry now, not in 20mins
countryg33k
What?!!!? Is the egg kept in the shell in this madness or what?
aslanlives
No, slipped into, same as if water was boiling on stove
countryg33k
Ok so I'm aware of various poaching methods. It's one of my favorite meals, and I've tried many ways to cook it. Are you heating the water
countryg33k
First in the microwave?

When I first had breakfast at my friend's house his mom made me a poached egg, I will never forget that egg. Parr of what makes that -

I used to order that in restaurants (in the before times) and always felt like an 80 year old man. But it’s so good.
NotABadLookingNarcissist
Poached egg on buttered bread was my go to breakfast for 1000’s of breakfasts.
PhenTsoksar
don't need the ham. just some yolk absorbent toast, pepper (fresh ground) and salt and life is good.
DonteHaversham
The end of the line is whipping a raw egg into freshly steamed rice.. Sounds weird but is absolutely amazing.
TheGreatSynan
The best thing my broke college self discovered was cracking an egg into fresh instant ramen
TheRickestRickFromEarthDimensionC137
Mashed potatoes with a raw egg, whip it in immediately after draining and returning to the pot. It's an eggscellent binder
SoniChan
Add some Bonito flakes, a dash of sesame seeds, and some dashi mixed with soy sauce to taste.
aslanlives
Ooh, just bought dashi. Already love the egg tempered into ramen trick, gonna try this tomorrow
HeadJamistan
How can that sound weird? It's in every restaurant's fried rice.
DonteHaversham
The egg shouldn't cook in there. I dont really know how to describe it but its just rice, raw egg and seasoning. Its really good
CmfMttnPpl
That's usually old rice, you want it cooked but not soft or else it'll turn to mush
CmfMttnPpl
Freshly cooked and chilled rice also works
tjgg
You're thinking cooked eggs. This is different and oh so heavenly
BornOnAMonday83
That's scrambling an egg into some fried rice. This is cracking a raw egg over some cooked rice in a bowl, stirring a bit then eating.
HighwayStar
That rice better be steaming hot for me to do that. Raw egg ain't my bag.
HeadJamistan
Ahhh thanks. That does sound good.
BornOnAMonday83
It's pretty fucking awesome. Little soy sauce, little msg, some sesame seeds.

Replace the the ham with avacado and smoked salmon. Top with hollandaise, a dash of "everything" bagel seasoning and a sprinkle of green...

that makes me want to vomit. Smoked salmon is awful and fatty, avocado is awful and fatty. Poached egg and hollandaise only good things here

Soft boiled eggs are divine, I think a lot of people are just squeamish about them because they don't seem to be "properlyu" cooked....

Gently drop eggs into boiling water for 5 minutes. Rinse eggs in cold tap water. Open from wide end of egg.

Grew up with this style of eggs! Little bit of pepper, a pinch of salt and a small spoon. We call them “huevos tibios.”

Soft boiled eggs & soldiers, now we're talking. That really does bring back memories.
bumblebeezzz
Introduced egg and soldiers to the SO last weekend! Such a game changer <3 still my favourite breakfast!
Cozysockdrawer
Egg is a lot creamer and tasty then it gets credit for. It's that lovely custardy taste. Butter + sugar + egg, holy trinity of baking.
JoeGringo
So they worry about food poisoning or whatever. I make my own mayonnaise so have no such qualms about undercooked/raw egg.
ChemicalG
Its the American way of how eggs are processed and shipped that makes it more common, also the exaggeratiom of how common food poisoning is
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
I'm not squeamish at all, I just don't like the texture of the whites. But I love runny yolks so I do sunny-side up.
MaxReboBand
How do you make your own mayo?
wHatThEQuAk
Egg and oil, mustard helps. Egg & oil needs to be room temp. Start rly rly slow
JoeGringo
Pasteurised eggs, oil (I use sunflower), mustard powder, salt and a touch of lemon juice, though I play fast & loose with ingredients.
smirkinchicken
Eggs and oil.
Kagenical
You need some vinegar/lemon juice, and a splash of water to let it out.
wHatThEQuAk
U add the acid after. The process...
wHatThEQuAk
Nope. Definitely not.
BeardKnight
If I remember correctly it's perfectly safe to eat uncooked yolks the danger lies in the whites. I may be talking out my ass though
JoeGringo
A lot of people only use yolks which is understandable, but as long as the eggs are pasteurised then both the yolk and albumen are edible.
Nize426
Shit son, in Japan we eat raw egg over rice. It's mostly safe.
DocteurPQ
We eat non pasteurized raw egg all the time in France too
SapphireSun
That shit's delicious.

I'm extremely squicked out by runny egg in any form. Just tastes gross to me.
BigFatFailureTurtle
I'm with ya. Given the choice between a firm egg and a bogey textured one, I'll take the 'overcooked' one every time.
buffyannesummers29
Yep. Runny egg yolks have the texture of snot ?
RevengeOfThePotatomancer
Same. It's not even that it's undercooked, raw egg as an ingredient in things is fine. I just don't like it on its own.
HopelessNecr0mantic
I'm an over easy person myself, so some cooked texture, while preserving the gooey yolks for my toast.
Sutashi
I go w over medium. Firm whites w a runny yolk. Over easy always has slightly runny whites which I don't like.

^This! Everything you could want, crispy edges, firm whites, runny yolks... Heavenly!
