Ate eight eggs today. Four hardboileds for lunch. Four scrambled with minced beef for dinner.

Big boy breakfast is served..
Two pancakes four fried eggs two slices of bacon one hashbrown patty one glass of orange juice one cold brew coffee yummy yummy

>q1 I stopped caring about this once I learned that you could feed chickens pure soyslop and as long as they get a bit of turmeric mixed in with it the yolk still ends up deep orange

>q2
Italian hot sausage, bell pepper, onion, potato. Top with 2-3 fried egg. Sometimes I put a slice of Merican cheese in between the egg and the food. I think you can put fried egg on most things and it enhances it. Put some on my peanut chili beef noodles the other day and it was really good.

>does yolk color matter
Not really no, deeper darker yolks look superficially nice but that's it.

>good egg dishes with runny or jammy yolks
Big big fan of shakshuka and fisherman's eggs.

>>21903432
Even if I only eat eggs because they're nutritious, eating is still very very expensive. Fuck life

>>21903845
What country?

>>21903432
egg producers in every country (and even in local regions) carefully control the diet of their chickens in order to get the color of eggs that the locals expect. they do this by adding or limiting the amount of beta carotene in the chicken feed. THAT'S IT THAT'S ALL!

In some countries they expect blood red eggs, in other countries everyone thinks a yellow or orange egg is a sign of icky chemicals and won't eat them so they make egg yolks that are white. white egg yolks are considered superior in japan.

here in the US people expect yellow to orange and that's what they get.

the color of the yolk has absolutely no bearing on the taste or the quality of the eggs.

Yolk color is an indication of egg quality, BUT only for real pastured chickens. If the farmer does not use anything to modify the color of the yolk in their feed and the eggs are darker it means the birds have been consuming lots of grass and bugs.

You will eat ze bugs... indirectly.

As of late I’ve been enjoying my eggs hard boiled, sliced in half and topped with an anchovy. It is quite satisfying but I can’t help but think it could do with another flavour component to reach its full potential.

>>21904353
That looks like a gimmick and not a common thing
Your points aren't wrong, but the white egg yolk thing is like saying donut burgers are common

I've been really into half boiled eggs / onsen tamago. It's like the entire egg is soft boiled and not just the yolk. But the whites are still cooked, they're just not set.

I do a sort of Scandinavian version of the Singapore eggs and toast version.
Two soft boiled / onsen eggs in a little bowl, a bit of light soy sauce (they use dark soy sauce in Singapore, but I prefer light for this), sprinkle black pepper on top, then sprinkle some very finely sliced spring onion on top.
Then toast two slices of rye bread instead of normal white bread (proper Danish rye bread with lots of seeds), just until the outside sets a little and doesn't get soggy from dipping in the egg.
Fuck that's good.

You an also put an egg cooked like that into a little bowl of rice, stir it around and sprinkle some furikake (I like the one with egg and nori) for a quick little Asian style breakfast or side dish.

99% of the time I think you ruined the egg if the yolk isn't to some degree runny or soft.

White yolk is a gimmick. You can make white yolks when you feed chickens only rice.

>>21904353
There are many people that swear darker of yolk is tastes much better then pale color. I'm not one of them

I exclusively eat eggs, fibre supplements and multivitamins

>>21905253
The color is not inherently connected to the flavor but the flavor is different across e.g. brands.
Happy farms will have paler and oranger yolks but they all taste better than egglands.
The farm fresh ones i used to get were always pretty pale but much better than happy farms. After a heavy rain, they’d be kinda wormy though lol

Two eggs every single morning for the past 10-12 years? crack them into an 8 inch skillet with a bit of PAM. Cover with a lid and don't touch it until the yolks turn white. Slid it on the plate and pre-cut. Add some salt right after and let the warm yolk do the heavy lifting. If I fuck up and break the yolk just switch to scrambled with a soft polymer spatula. 8/10 heat and near constant movement. Pulling back from the edges towards the middle. Remove from heat juuuuuuuuust as they are nearly done since they will keep cooking on the plate for another minute. They aren't wet but they are very moist. Lick the plate like a fucking degenerate to sop up the yolk with my tongue like I'm rimming out your mother. fuck I love eggs.

>vagitarians eat bugs, weeds, scraps, garbage
>regular people feed that to the chickens and pigs that convert it into pure deliciousness

>>21906115
They don't eat bugs. Bugs were alive.

>>21906118
if you eat farm cultivated vegs, you're eating ze bugs. we tear up and slaughter thousands of insects and small game for every acre of farmable land. just because it isn't on the ingredients list don't mean its not in it, around it, covering it, or absorbed.

>>21903432
i just boil mine for 6.5 minutes. shakshuka's already been mentioned which is also something i'd recommend

>>21905628
I do not know, I don't have a membership.
Do you have an Aldi's? I like their pasture eggs as well
I think it's the pasturing that makes the difference, so look into whether or not sams/costco actually does that. Or is it just tricky marketing?

>>21906161
A lot of "pastured" eggs are just chickens given the ability to go outdoors without any guarantee of actually consuming pasture or even going outside.
Certified regenerative is the new one you want to look for. Usually regenerative practices mean that the flock is moved to new forage once their old area is depleted, and sort of implicitly guarantees the birds are actually spending time outside eating forage.

>>21904368
>Yolk color is an indication of egg quality, BUT only for real pastured chickens.
bullshit. pastured eggs come with a disclaimer that the yolks will often not be yellow enough because of the lack of beta carotene.

>>21906187
Interesting, thank you!
Happy farms still has good flavor but I'm always on the lookout just in case they decline.
It's impossible to get the farm fresh ones over winter but soon I should start seeing the signs pop back up

>>21904951
everything I posted is from legit scientific sources. egg yolk color is a bullshit metric for egg quality.

my brother had chickens I told him to feed the chickens marigold flowers or carrots. he did and the yolks were dark orange. but the rest of the feed was just plain chicken feed.

you idiots would claim those eggs were "best quality".

>>21905523
I did a taste test of all the eggs you can buy at my grocery store, from generic store brand, to egglands, to organic pasture raised free range new age blah blah blah eggs.

color was all over the place on the feel good orthorexia eggs, flavor was nearly identical among all of them. though some feel good eggs had a fishy taste, but egglands was the best tasting of all of them.

the nice thing about egglands is they don't have a phony mark up on size, so they often contain jumbo eggs. also the brown eggs were more likely to contain weird bits in the whites.

>>21906577
>bullshit. trash pastured eggs come with a disclaimer that the yolks will often not be yellow enough because of the lack of beta carotene.
ftfy

>>21906187
you know... unlike all the bullshitters on this board. I actually looked in to all the terms of raising chickens and how the eggs are produced (never look in to how eggs are formed... just don't do it).

all the terms are marketing wank. most of the terms are meant to make week stomached and soft brains feel better about what they are eating.

strong people don't give a shit about your marketing terms and we find the best product regardless of the bullshit. the outside color of eggs is bullshit. the color of the yolk is bullshit, and the fact that chickens can go outside and eat bugs is bullshit.

I'm sorry to break the news but I think you're just a tastelet.
Not going to pretend the marketing isn't exactly what you call it, but the difference in flavor is legit.
The only reason I ever tried the feel good eggs is because I just so happened to try farm fresh eggs, and it's hard to go back

ah so all pasture raised chickens and eggs are bullshit. as I suspected.

>>21906588
dude I can tell you what ingredients are in your grammy's secret recipe. I can tell which eggs are best eggs. it is you that are the tastelet who thinks that "muh dark yolks" are da best.

>>21906589
America did that itself. "American excellence" is a myth, and hasn't existed in 100 years.

>>21906591
No, because I already talked about the farm fresh having pale yolks and being better than grocery eggs. Unless they're wormy, that gets weird

> American excellence myth
Also no, we used to value quality like other countries.
And if you say we never did, why wouldn't you want to start?
Your inability to access fresh quality dulled your senses if you think animal diet and QOL is irrelevant.

You realize that when chickens eat more grass and bugs the eggs become more nutrient dense and have a better omega 3:6 ratio, correct?

>>21906579
I am chicken farmer that does rotational pasture with a flock of around 500 chickens. Egg production has been ramping. We get 2 5 gallon buckets of eggs per day right now.

>>21906587
Cope. Words have meaning and your fear for them scares you away from good eggs. If a farm is actually doing rotational pasture/regenerative farming their eggs will be healthier and tastier. Go visit your local egg farm and see how they treat their chickens. Those scary words will finally make sense.
Also. You failed to mention the other main quality factor for eggs aside from the chicken's diet, egglet. Kinda funny, really.

That’s so sick, i want my own chickens so bad.
I only know a few people with just a few chickens, that sounds like a solid production!
I appreciate your input, some of this stuff is so intuitive it’s hard to explain. I do not understand why people can’t make the connection between input quality and output quality when it comes to their fucking food!
Buncha tastelets too, the difference is there for sure.

Any of you eated unusual kind of eggs?

I've got this thing as my microwave egg cooker and it works just fine, except for the egg puffing upward and pushing the lid off in the microwave.

Any specific method I should use for keeping the lid on, or are there better-designed ceramic egg cookers I could get?
