Medium boiled egg
« on: January 20, 2012, 11:50:47 AM »
I'm not really an egg person but this morning I boiled up an egg aiming for soft boiled.  Ended up with a medium boiled egg (yolk was thick but not hard) and man was it tasty.  I think I'm going to prepare my eggs this way from now on.

I wish I could do eggs more... we don't buy them very often at all because of Sophie's allergies.  Same with nuts.  Eggs and nuts used to be pretty big in our diets.  :(

Had it again this morning.  I think I've found my breakfast protein.

thats too bad ober. We eat a shit load of eggs at my house. I would say at least 18/week.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Sophie is highly allergic to egg and nuts, although as far as we know, it's only by ingesting them.  We initially thought she might grow out of it by now but the last testing we had done indicated she likely won't grow out of the egg allergy until her early teens.  She will likely never outgrow the nut allergy.

We do get eggs from time to time (probably once every 6 months) but we have to be really careful when we do.  And there are nice things about it.  Baking egg free means you can eat batter without worrying.  And we're all so used to it at this point.  It's not that big of a deal anymore.

Yeah, I've always nibbled on batter and eaten cookie dough straight up.  Fuck, I prefer cookie dough over baked cookies most of the time.

Tried one for lunch today.  Very tasty Mike!  7 minutes was just a hair too long for me.  Going to try 6:45 next time.
govtcheez03:  i kind of look for it - i seek out stupidity and annoy it until it either gets better, gets banned, or goes away on its own

Yeah, trying to find the perfect time.  Of course it doesn't help that it depends on the egg itself.  I've had several more and a few it was too long and a few it was just a little too short (the very inside part of the whites were just a little runny.

I did too.  But I wouldn't let my kids do it.  This way, we don't have to worry.
