Tips 

  • Make sure to have a good non-stick skillet as this is an essential tool when making a fried egg. I prefer to use cast iron since it is a non-toxic option. If you are new to cast iron, learn how to season and use a cast iron skillet here.
  • Add whole milk or cream to your scrambled eggs during the cooking process to add another level of flavor and creaminess. 
  • Transfer your hard boiled egg to an ice bath to make it simpler to peel after they have finished cooking. 
  • Fresh eggs from a local farms are even higher in nutrients and also have a more rich flavor.
