    https://www.verywellhealth.com/hard-boiled-vs-scrambled-egg-12009427

    Key Takeaways
    A hard-boiled egg is slightly healthier than a scrambled egg because it requires no added fat and is lower in calories.
    Using unsaturated oils and adding vegetables to a scrambled egg can
    improve its nutritional value.
    Boiling an egg has a slight advantage in preserving more heat-sensitive nutrients, like lutein and zeaxanthin, compared to frying methods used
    to make a scrambled egg.

    I don't eat a lot of eggs. They are a key component of my Sunday brunch
    and I may have them maybe one other lunch during the week. I usually
    have them poached or scrambled and maybe once a month they will be fried
    sunny side up. I don't know about the heat sensitive part. I tend to
    have them barely cooked. I like my poached and fried eggs to have very
    runny yolks and I like my scrambled eggs very wet.

    I should eat more boiled eggs - not because it's slightly more healthier but because they're so delectable. I'm not a fan of hard-boiled.

    About once a week, I make both hard and soft boiled together. I have a
    small pot that comfortably holds four X-large eggs. Bring water to a
    boil, put in four eggs.

    Watch the clock and after 6 minutes, I take the pot to the sink. With a
    spoon, I lift out one egg, run a bit of water over it so I can hold it.
    crack the shell around the middle, separate and scoop each half into a
    cup. Repeat with second egg.

    Leave the other two sit in the pot. After I'd done eating and cleaning
    up, I dump the water and leave the other two for the next day.

    That sounds like a good routine. I should be boiling some eggs sometime today. --- Synchronet 3.22a-Linux NewsLink 1.2

    Does it make a difference if the eggs are eaten for dinner rather than
    for breakfast? ;)

    Personally, I like eggs scrambled with some shredded cheddar cheese and
    yes, a bit of butter added to the pan first. If I have boiled eggs, I
    prefer them soft boiled and served in a cup (my mother called it
    egg-a-cup) with added butter and seasoned with salt & pepper. I'm
    trying to decide whether or not to have eggs for dinner tonight.

    My wife does that. She likes boiled eggs and will have one freshly
    cooked soft boiled egg and then have hard boiled for breakfast or lunch
    for a few days after that.

    There's a level between soft and hard boiled that's perfect. Fried eggs,
    I want the yolk runny, so I can mix it all up with potatoes and such.

    You need to quit hanging around nearly century old people and see what
    the 'youngsters' are eating.

    I've never been to a large picnic, holiday gathering, weekend cookout,
    block party, etc. where the under the age of 90 crowd didn't devour
    deviled eggs.

    LOTS of variations to try. Some have pickle relish as part of the filling, some have very finely minced shallots, while others are topped with a sprig dill or even a sliver of smoked salmon. Your imagination is the only limit.

    Key Takeaways
    A hard-boiled egg is slightly healthier than a scrambled egg because it
    requires no added fat and is lower in calories.
    Using unsaturated oils and adding vegetables to a scrambled egg can
    improve its nutritional value.
    Boiling an egg has a slight advantage in preserving more heat-sensitive
    nutrients, like lutein and zeaxanthin, compared to frying methods used
    to make a scrambled egg.

    How do you feel about deviled eggs? -aEfyi-a


    I don't believe that I've ever had that. If I did have some it was probably on
    the mainland. OTOH, I'm always on the lookout for new foods so I'll probably
    make some soon. Thanks.

    LOTS of variations to try. Some have pickle relish as part of the filling,

    That's why I don't eat anybody else's deviled eggs. You never know
    when they're going to add pickle relish.

    Mayo, mustard (Dijon for preference), salt, pepper, and a
    sprinkling of cayenne.

    Before I had a child, I liked mayo and didn't care for green
    olives. Since becoming pregnant, I've despised mayo and all its
    works, and I love green olives. Most mothers say their
    preferences switched back when the gave birth, but mine never
    did.

    Mayo is a sneaky little ingredient found in many dishes where
    it's not visible. It can be difficult to order sandwiches without
    it.

    Enjoy your mayo. :-)

    It's not the same as making Egg Drop soup.

    I asked the chatbot.

    | Egg Drop Soup
    |
    | At its most basic, Chinese egg drop soup - literally translated as
    | "Egg Flower Soup" - is a comforting, minimalist dish. A lightly sea-
    | soned, boiling broth (usually chicken or tomato-based) is brought to
    | a simmer. A beaten egg is then poured into the pot in a thin, steady
    | stream while the liquid is gently swirled. The residual heat instantly
    | cooks the egg into delicate, wispy, ribbon-like ribbons that float
    | gracefully like flower petals.
    |
    | Unlike the thick, heavily cornstarched, bright-yellow versions found
    | in Western takeout boxes, a real home-style Chinese egg flower soup is
    | light, clear, and takes less than five minutes to make.
    |
    | While it looks like a simple placeholder meal to a foreigner, egg
    | flower soup is a masterclass in the foundational mindset of Chinese
    | civilization:
    | - Simplicity: Water, a single egg, a pinch of salt.
    | - Balance: Neutralizes the "dry heat" of a fried meal.
    | - Water: Finding infinite flavor in absolute emptiness.
    |
    | The Mastery of Empty Space
    |
    | In classical Chinese landscape painting, artists intentionally leave
    | vast areas of the canvas completely blank (li||b|ii) to force the viewer
    | to appreciate the depth of what is painted. Egg flower soup is the
    | culinary version of li||b|ii.
    |
    | The Foreign Misunderstanding Western diners often judge a soup by
    | its "stuff" - the chunks of meat, noodles, or heavy cream.
    |
    | The Chinese Mindset Egg flower soup celebrates the space between the
    | ingredients. The clear broth is the canvas; the delicate egg ribbons
    | are the brushstrokes. It teaches the diner to appreciate subtlety,
    | clarity, and the quiet spaces in life rather than constant, overwhelm-
    | ing sensory stimulation.
    |
    | 2. The Practical Taoism of "W|| W|-i"
    |
    | Taoism emphasizes W|| W|-i, the art of aligning with the natural flow of
    | the universe rather than forcing things through brute strength.
    |
    | The Technique You cannot "make" the egg flowers form by aggressively
    | whipping the soup. If you stir too fast, the egg dissolves into a mud-
    | dy, cloudy mess. If you don't stir at all, it becomes a solid, heavy
    | lump.
    |
    | The Philosophy You must swirl the water gently, pour the egg slowly,
    | and let the inherent heat of the water do the work. The soup requires
    | the chef to surrender control and let the natural physics of fluid
    | dynamics create the beauty. It is a daily, edible lesson in patience
    | and yielding.
    |
    | Climate Control
    |
    | As established in Chinese medicine, meals must balance the body's in-
    | ternal climate. Egg flower soup serves a highly specific structural
    | role at the end of a family meal.
    |
    | - If a family dinner features rich, heavily fried, or spicy dishes
    | that inject Yang (dry heat) into the body, the meal cannot end
    | there.
    |
    | - Egg flower soup is served as a clearing mechanism. Because the egg
    | is gently poached in a clear, hydrated broth, it acts as a cooling,
    | soothing agent. It washes down the heavy oils, neutralizes internal
    | fire, and resets the palate, leaving the body in a perfect state of
    | equilibrium.
    |
    | The Value of the Inexpensive
    |
    | In China's long history, resourcefulness was born out of survival, but
    | it evolved into a beautiful philosophy of respect.
    |
    | - An egg is one of the cheapest ingredients available. Yet, by apply-
    | ing precise technique (the speed of the swirl, the timing of the
    | pour), a home cook transforms a single, humble egg into a visually
    | stunning, silk-textured dish that can feed an entire family.
    |
    | - It reflects a deep cultural pride in extracting maximum value and
    | beauty from the absolute minimum, proving that luxury is defined by
    | care and skill, not by the price tag of the ingredient.

    The vegetable oil is eyebrow raising for me, but if you like it, continue
    on. But you might try dab of sour cream next time if mayo has your stomach lurching and leave off the vegetable oil.

    Sorry, but you guys keep talking about deviled eggs and it keeps
    reminding me of the last time I made them. It was for a family event. I
    had cooked up a dozen eggs and spent a lot of time to cook them, to
    carefully remove the shells, cut them in half, scoop out and mash the
    yolks and add the goodies and then refill the eggs. Then I had to screw
    around to arrange then wobble free. I got to try on and it was
    delicious. My good niece had one and really liked it. Then the Big Niece
    moved in an ate the rest. It took her a lot less time to empty that
    platter than it had taken me to make them.

    Sorry, but you guys keep talking about deviled eggs and it keeps
    reminding me of the last time I made them. It was for a family event. I
    had cooked up a dozen eggs and spent a lot of time to cook them, to carefully remove the shells, cut them in half, scoop out and mash the
    yolks and add the goodies and then refill the eggs. Then I had to screw around to arrange then wobble free. I got to try on and it was
    delicious. My good niece had one and really liked it. Then the Big Niece moved in an ate the rest. It took her a lot less time to empty that
    platter than it had taken me to make them.


    Just cook two or three, split them in half and proceed with the preparation.
    If you cook three and split them that means three for you and three for your wife. If she's not a fan just cook 1 or 2 but no Big Niece to inhale your effort.

    It might sound silly, but just make one deviled egg in case the sour
    cream doesn't suit your taste buds. No need to ruin a bunch of eggs
    just to try a new recipe.

    I haven't had deviled eggs in quite a while. Maybe I should eat
    more eggs. I do know someone with backyard chickens.

    Excellent protein, many different ways to prepare and pretty much
    effortless to cook. Who'd thunk it that something in such a small
    package could taste so good!

    I've been unable to abide mayo ever since being pregnant. I don't
    often make deviled eggs, but when I do, I use yellow mustard and
    a little vegetable oil.

    Everything's better with mayo... but I control myself.


    Before I had a child, I liked mayo and didn't care for green
    olives. Since becoming pregnant, I've despised mayo and all its
    works, and I love green olives. Most mothers say their
    preferences switched back when the gave birth, but mine never
    did.

    Mayo is a sneaky little ingredient found in many dishes where
    it's not visible. It can be difficult to order sandwiches without
    it.

    Enjoy your mayo. :-)

    Thank you. It's mainly oil and egg yolks, but I guess you don't like
    that combination.

    I'd stir those in pretty vigorously.

    Right? They're sitting there in the soup in the shell, half open...
    you'd wind up with egg shells in the soup.

    I'm not sure that was in the shell. The piece on the left looked

    If they were in the shell, I'd scoop out innards before mixing.

    I don't think they're in the shell. Look at the one on the left, that

    I don't believe that I've ever had that. If I did have some it was

    Agree no shell, but does not look properly proportioned. The white of

    like from a full egg than half and is rising above the half of sliced
    albumen. Maybe just floating on other liquid give that appearance.

    Don't be too hard on yourself Jill. I had not noticed it when I first
    glanced at the photo. When you mentioned the shell I went back for a
    second look I saw what appeared to be shell. I just had another look
    and if there is not a shell there it sure looked like one. That made me
    go back and have yet another look and son of a gun it could be an issue
    of surface tension and light reflection.At about 2 o'clock on the egg on
    the right I see a strip of white that resembles the inside of a shell.
    When I look at the bottom right of the piece of pork there is the same
    sort of effect but since it is pork it is not likely egg shell. Maybe
    some day when pigs can fly ;-)

    If they were in the shell, I'd scoop out innards before mixing.

    I don't think they're in the shell. Look at the one on the left, that
    broke. I don't see a shell. Maybe the honourable representative from
    Hawaii can shed light.

    Mea culpa.-a Second look, I don't see a shell.-a The presentation is a
    bit odd, though.


    Don't be too hard on yourself Jill. I had not noticed it when I first glanced at the photo. When you mentioned the shell I went back for a
    second look I saw what appeared to be shell.-a I just had another look
    and if there is not a shell there it sure looked like one. That made me
    go back and have yet another look and son of a gun it could be an issue
    of surface tension and light reflection.At about 2 o'clock on the egg on
    the right I see a strip of white that resembles the inside of a shell.
    When I look at the bottom right of the piece of pork there is the same
    sort of effect but since it is pork it is not likely egg shell.-a Maybe
    some day when pigs can fly-a ;-)

    Thanks for the detailed and accurate analysis Officer Dave! Only a
    highly trained law officer such as yourself could perform this well.
    Analyzing an egg is very difficult!

    When you have time, could you please show us a few of the many cases you
    have solved during your career as Canada's top law officer?

    Google turns up several ways to do it. This one seems most likely

    Gently score just the outer white all the way around the equator of the
    egg with a knife tip, then let the halves pull apart so the soft yolk

    Why should we? It's a niche dish. Some of us don't have a

    I'm somewhat hampered by the fact that I prefer my local Japanese

    Their nabeyaki udon has a poached egg.

    Their ramen in broth dishes have "five spice soy egg". I've
    never tried any of them.

    It's just a bowl of noodles and garnish in broth, for Christ's sake.

    Key Takeaways
    A hard-boiled egg is slightly healthier than a scrambled egg because
    it requires no added fat and is lower in calories.
    Using unsaturated oils and adding vegetables to a scrambled egg can
    improve its nutritional value.
    Boiling an egg has a slight advantage in preserving more heat-
    sensitive nutrients, like lutein and zeaxanthin, compared to frying
    methods used to make a scrambled egg.


    I don't eat a lot of eggs. They are a key component of my Sunday brunch
    and I may have them maybe one other lunch during the week. I usually
    have them poached or scrambled and maybe once a month they will be fried sunny side up.-a I don't know about the heat sensitive part. I tend to
    have them barely cooked. I like my poached and fried eggs to have very
    runny yolks and I like my scrambled eggs very wet.

    | Egg Drop Soup
    |
    | At its most basic, Chinese egg drop soup - literally translated as

    | soned, boiling broth (usually chicken or tomato-based) is brought to
    | a simmer. A beaten egg is then poured into the pot in a thin, steady
    | stream while the liquid is gently swirled. The residual heat instantly

    | gracefully like flower petals.

    Egg drop soup is good diet food.

    Start tap running as hot as you can

    Under the stream, roll egg around with
    one hand, tapping gently with spheroid
    part of a spoon (i.e. NOT with edge).

    **** The hand holding the egg needs to be in
    a cup-cup shape; only the outer (egg white)
    has ANY solidity. ****

    When average shell solid angle subtension
    (i.e. from egg geometric / mass centre)
    gets down to less than a steradian or so,
    drop the spoon and use that hand to peel
    the egg. The shell fragments will be
    stuck to the membrane which forms a
    substrate. With practice, you can the
    'peel' off in one piece.

    Just to make sure, roll the egg around
    under the tap to emiminate small shell
    fragments.

    | Egg Drop Soup
    |
    | At its most basic, Chinese egg drop soup - literally translated as
    | "Egg Flower Soup" - is a comforting, minimalist dish. A lightly
    sea- | soned, boiling broth (usually chicken or tomato-based) is
    brought to | a simmer. A beaten egg is then poured into the pot in
    a thin, steady | stream while the liquid is gently swirled. The
    residual heat instantly | cooks the egg into delicate, wispy,
    ribbon-like ribbons that float | gracefully like flower petals.

    Egg drop soup is good diet food.



    +1!

    And always best with a drizzle of sriracha on top.

    You missed the point. Why put soft boiled eggs in the shells in a

    It still doesn't make a lot of sense.


    David would say that if he went to a ramen house and they did not
    add an a soft-boiled egg as garnish, he would be very disappointed.
    I don't know what the Chinese do because I've never had a Chinese soft-boiled egg.
    Jill gets a lot of details wrong. Chinese, Korean, Japanese? They all

    Doubanjiang: Adds bold, savory heat
    Gochujang: Sweet and spicy kick

    Why should we? It's a niche dish. Some of us don't have a
    Japanese restaurant nearby.

    People in the US who are broke usually just buy instant ramen.

    I didn't talk about that because instant ramen is not much like
    "real" ramen.

    Instant ramen is a cheap, shelf-stable, pre-cooked, and flash-fried
    noodle block paired with a dehydrated powder or oil packet. Real ramen
    is a handcrafted restaurant meal featuring fresh alkaline wheat noodles (kansui) served in a rich, complex bone or vegetable broth simmered for

    If you want to know anything about ramen, you should make a post asking

    Instant noodles has its place in Japan. In Korea, most of the noodles served
    in restaurants are instant noodles. They are more expensive but still a cheap meal. I like Korean instant noodles more than Japanese instant noodles. I suppose the problem with Korean noodles is that a lot of them are too spicy
    for Americans. OTOH, it might be a walk in the park for Mexicans.

    Excellent protein, many different ways to prepare and pretty much
    effortless to cook. Who'd thunk it that something in such a small
    package could taste so good!

    i love a lot of versions of eggs but they do not love me. :(
    now i mostly eat eggs as part of other baked goods and not very
    often as only eggs. so i may have some in some chinese dishes
    too and those don't bother me as long as the dish is mostly
    vegetables and other ingredients and only smaller amounts of
    eggs.

    devilled eggs and pickled eggs and hardboiled eggs with some
    hotsauce (and sometimes ketchup too), or even an egg sandwich
    used to all be frequently enjoyed but i always paid a price
    for them. now i'm more often not paying that price and my
    body does do better.

    You missed the point. Why put soft boiled eggs in the shells in a bowl
    of soup? You'd need to spoon it out of the shells to eat and probably
    wind up with egg shells in the soup. I suppose David will say it's a Chinese thing and he may well be right about that. It still doesn't
    make a lot of sense.

    it might just be how it is made.

    for me it's a hard pass (due to how my body doesn't like a
    lot of eggs in any recipe), but also based upon how often i've
    seen contaminants on egg shells. um, no thanks period.

    I should eat more boiled eggs - not because it's slightly more
    healthier but
    because they're so delectable. I'm not a fan of hard-boiled.

    https://photos.app.goo.gl/eZARU1xpLhdU7HQ9A

    There's a level between soft and hard boiled that's perfect. Fried
    eggs, I want the yolk runny, so I can mix it all up with potatoes and
    such. This was dinner this evening.
    https://photos.app.goo.gl/XRGRxX3rmD3azeSo7


    You want to mix runny egg yolk with potatoes yet deviled eggs are gross?

    https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/traditional-deviled-eggs/

    Deviled eggs. Deviled ham. I don't want Satan anywhere near my food.

    ********
    AI Overview
    Combining crispy fried potatoes with runny fried egg yolks creates a
    classic comfort dish known globally as huevos rotos or a potato and egg
    hash. Fry diced potatoes in oil until golden and crisp, top them with sunny-side-up or over-easy eggs, and break the warm yolks to let them
    sauce the potatoes.
    ********

    I also put over easy or lightly basted eggs on top of east Asian type
    dishes like vegetables over rice, then break the yolks. Typically I
    season with tamari and cayenne.

    It is my understanding that supermarket eggs are cleaned at the processing
    and grading facility; that's why American eggs need to be refrigerated.
    When my brother and sister-in-law were keeping chickens a few years ago
    they'd give me a couple of dozen. Of course, the cleaning was left to me. Efyu

    That is my understanding too. There is something on the outside of the
    shells that protects the eggs. My neighbours do not clean their eggs and
    they do not need to be refrigerated.

    You're preaching to the wrong person. I don't eat enough Korean noodle to grow
    tits. What you should really fear is telling a Korean not to eat his noodles. That's just not going to fly.

    But, what 'bout da Hiwayans, Uncle? Don't those kidz eat noodles too?

    Tojo, da Hiwayans have big enough tits already. And da samoans too, Uncle!

    They both need to eat japanese rice noodles.

    Surely they must also have access to decent quality noodles, without

    Maybe chinese noodles? Uncle is obsessed with china, so I bet he'd go

    Does Google sponsor any great noodle companies?

    And Dave, that is your sole experience with understanding and accepting

    have never gained the trust of another single organism, let alone a
    human. You have lived your life as an aimless floating piece of dung in

    But maybe the Buddhists are right, and you'll get another chance in your
    next life. Who knows, some day I might get to see you as a human, not a dropping her Majesty shit on the floor.

    My ability to analyze what I'm eating is pretty accurate. Taste is a most important quality in food that I like. That should be obvious in my post.
    If you're talking about pretensions of upper class food consumption culture, it's obvious that "taste" is very important to you. I don't have any such pretensions i.e., I know what I like - what you or other people think is proper
    food has no effect on what I eat. That's the breaks.

    You don't have to be pretentious or upper class to prefer real food
    without a lot of added crap. If you'll eat anything the food industry
    offers, you're not lower class or unpretentious, you're a chump.

    food has no effect on what I eat. That's the breaks.

    You don't have to be pretentious or upper class to prefer real food
    without a lot of added crap. If you'll eat anything the food industry
    offers, you're not lower class or unpretentious, you're a chump.

    Now give me the last word, please.

    Sure, you get the last word. Don't waste it please.

    Thanks, chumpie.

    I bet those instant noodles are full of crappy ingredients.


    Beats me. All I know is whether or not it's tasty. If it's not
    tasty, then it doesn't matter what's in it. My guess is that the ingredients will terrify you.

    Now that I think of it, if the noodles are tasty it doesn't matter
    what's in it either. I suppose you could say that it doesn't matter
    what's in the noodles most times. I'm not a tentative kind of guy.

    I demand extra arsenic with my rice too!

    Life is too short to worry about apple seeds either.
