How To Cook Eggs Without Making These Common Mistakes
Whether you like your eggs scrambled, fried sunny side up, poached, hard-boiled or turned into an omelet, here's how to do it.
Sunny Side Up
Mistakes: Overcooking egg yolks, undercooking egg whites and moving eggs too much while cooking
Solutions: Cook eggs low and slow, and cover briefly if necessary
Mistakes: Overcooking and not moving the eggs around in the pan
Solutions: Remove eggs from the heat while they’re still a bit glistening and moist, and stir and fold eggs constantly while cooking
Sunny Side up! |
Mistakes: Cracking the eggs when placing them in the pot, overcooking and mangling your eggs when peeling them
Solutions: Add eggs to hot water, and place them in an ice bath right after cooking
Poached Eggs
Mistakes: Using a pan that’s too deep, overhandling the eggs and not draining the eggs after cooking
Solutions: Use a low-sided pan with straight sides, avoid moving the eggs too much when cooking, and use a slotted spoon and paper towel to drain the egg before serving
Omelet
Mistakes: Overcooking, and adding raw fillings to your eggs
Solutions: Remove the omelet from the pan while the inside is still moist, and pre-cook fillings like mushrooms and onions
