Still didn’t tell me how I can flip an egg without breaking the yoke
Get a new non stick pan small… get it hot add oil then eggs when egg sets swirl egg and bring arm back then quick forward and toss up then bring arm ack when you catch the eggs in mid air
I’ve never been able to cook my own favorite eggs, over easy. Tried again this morning after a long while. Broke the yolks.
Amen
its all in the wrist when you flip the pan get a cook from the waffle house to teach you
Thank you
I’ve been cooking eggs for 60 plus years. Mine have always been quite tasty. I can hardly call my way wrong. It isn’t rocket science to cook an egg people.
loving the comments guys :
I prefer them basted and Pink on top.
Cooking at too hot a temp!
Don’t flip them. Just add a little water, put a lid on them for a few seconds, 30-45, and remove the lid. Waaaaa-laaaaaa – eggs done with lots of “dippy”!
I cook ’em the way I like ’em – that’s the proper way.
I cook them easy over in bacon grease….how can that be wrong? ??
Slow and gentle, Ted.
But does it really matter?
Ted listen to Brenda…. Perfect every time.
Why flip? Cover with a lid for a couple min. Wala. A thing of beauty.
I just flip the bacon grease over them til done….easy to do.
No,such thing!
Put water in pan, boil, add eggs and lid. 3 minutes later you have perfect poached eggs. That’s the amount of time it takes to make toast.
s**t, that’s the best, been cooking them for 50+ years this way.

I have been cracking eggs almost 20 years!!! Lol.. Don’t flip them!!!
I have an egg cooker. It cooks poached and boiled eggs perfectly.
So now we have the egg cooking Police.. I really resent people telling me how to cook my eggs, or anything… . As long as I end up with a desirable product, that looks and tastes good, who are they to say I did it wrong..
Amen Cherry!
Everyone’s entitled to an opinion.
I know how I and my family like their eggs cooked,and I do not need a ‘expert’ telling me how to after 40 years.
Finally! I always hate when these articles say what I am doing wrong.
Me too….love it and use it all the time
Don’t like my over easy eggs crispy on the bottom or any kind of egg crispy
You cook it the way you want to eat it. Done.
How did our ancestors and us survive if we cooked eggs wrong??!!!
Geez, get a life! Full of cholesterol?!
Lol Susan. Haven’t heard the word criminetly in years.
I can’t even imagine someone wanting crispy eggs…yuck!
I’ll cook them any damn way I please. There is no right or wrong way, you food$#%&!@*.
Some good points always willing to learn
If the way you cook them is the way you like them, then it can’t be wrong!
Don’t like crispy edges on my eggs. Survived all these years with no crispy edges
This is an advice column. Settle down. Sheesh.
David Colpo It was mostly all tongue in cheek, I just thought it interesting that someone else knows how to cook my eggs.. but yes, it is an advice, maybe it should say, this is how you might make better eggs, rather than ‘you are cooking them wrong’ 🙂
I like my whites fully cooked and yolk runny but hate flipping over easy so I just add a sprinkle of water to the pan and immediately cover. This steams the egg ensuring the whites are cooked and the yolk is warm but runny

I’ve always salted my eggs as I cook them. I have never seen them turn watery because I seasoned too soon.
Barf
I can -just like that!
I’d say if you like your eggs they way you cook them then it isn’t wrong. What’s wrong is when someone thinks there way is the only way
Ask anybody, cooking eggs is simple. Now go check out the kitchen sink when they’re done. May be they aren’t do easy after all.
I cook my eggs the way I like them, really dont think it’s wrong
