Good morning! Happy Monday! I can say that this week is Easter week because you either celebrated it yesterday or you are going to celebrate it next Sunday, so I decided to share with you something that has a connection to Easter traditions – eggs. Eggs represent new life and rebirth and Jesus’ resurrection. But you all already know that, so I will share with you different words that are used in English for cooking eggs. But before I get into it, as we all know, eggs have two parts, the white part is called “egg white”, so surprise there, and the yellow part is called “egg yolk”.
So, here we go, different ways of cooking eggs. The simplest one is a fried egg, of course. You put it in a pan and fry it with oil or butter until both the white and the yolk are cooked to your desired level. If you don’t flip your egg and the yolk is still intact and visible yellow, it is called “sunny-side-up”. Something like that. Then we have scrambled eggs. You mix the eggs and cook them in a pan, mixing them frequently, so they come out like that. You can also poach your eggs, or cook them gently in water without their shells until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. In the end, they should look something like that. Poaching eggs is not easy, believe me. If you boil your eggs in water with shells, then out come boiled eggs. Did you know that if you don’t want the shells to crack during boiling, you should add salt to the water? Try it, it really works. If you have a boiled egg, you can transform it into a stuffed egg if you cut it in half, take out the yolk, mix it with mayonnaise, mustard, or some other spices and then return this mixture into the egg whites. I love those! The next one is an omelet, you cook eggs in a pan and fold them around a filling such as cheese, vegetables, or meat. My husband’s favourite way to eat eggs is “egg in a hole”. It looks like that. First, you cut out a hole in a piece of bread, place it in a pan, then crack an egg into the hole and wait for it to cook. You can flip it at one point or you can leave it cooking just on one side. And my favourite way to eat eggs is the so-called “easy over”, or “over easy”, you start by frying an egg normally, but then you flip it for a very short time so that the yolk is still runny inside, but not outside. That was all for today. What is your favourite way of cooking eggs? Let me know in a comment. Have a fun day! See you next Monday! Happy Easter!
