(and since it's not hard to do, perhaps i'll write it up, i don't believe in secrets)<br /><br />but i quibbles over the eggs cuz i love the purity of the egg taste, in all forms except overcooked. i'm one of those people who chastises anybody who thinks an omelet means it has stuff in it, cuz it's really the particular style of cooking that uncovers those facets of an egg you can get no other way, and i don't want anything added in my omelet because the flavor of the egg is so delicate, the only thing it can stand up to is... butter.<br /><br />ovum and out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4640470443420164863.post-21666960215135274642012-04-04T16:41:22.612-04:002012-04-04T16:41:22.612-04:00Fact of the matter is the hash and hash towns were...Fact of the matter is the hash and hash towns were so dazzling that I had no unstimulated neurons left with which to process the egg. Hence the strangely void descriptor I evasively assigned it. <br /><br />The egg could have had sawdust all over it and I'd still have eaten it with bug-eyed rapture. In fact, I'm mildly suspicious of you, in spite of the grace with which you've extended this rebuke, for even pointing this out. DO YOU SEE THAT HASH? DO YOU SEE THOSE SPUDS? Yeah? Yeah?? Then HOW CAN YOU QUIBBLE OVER EGG DONENESS AT A TIME LIKE THIS?!?Jim Leffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00007232702717055047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4640470443420164863.post-84550912170916243252012-04-04T16:33:58.523-04:002012-04-04T16:33:58.523-04:00you deserve all the respect that you have earned f...you deserve all the respect that you have earned for you taste and knowledge of food.<br /><br />but that egg is not over-easy, it's over-cooked.
