Default Re: How do you like your eggs?

The reason why restaurants can't do over-medium is because you have a small window between easy and hard. It's pretty easy if you care about what you're doing, but if you don't give a damn it is brutally difficult to do it right.

This is exactly right. When the eggs hit the plate they are hot, the warmer they're under is hot, the plate may even be hot. So what happens is that if the wait staff doesn't get them out immediately they keep cooking and turn out hard.

I REALLY hate eggs...but I can cook them anyway you want. At least I used to be able to. I used to cook at a Huddle House. If you are wondering what a Huddle House is, it's like a Waffle House or IHOP, but less classy.
