Seems you’re doing better than Prince Charles. Supposedly they cook 4-6 per day for him, to get the one perfect one he wants.

You would think by now, they would've learned...

Buffalo Chicken Sliders for lunch today.

Put the eggs in a pot and cover with about an inch of cool water.
Bring to a rolling boil then remove from heat and cover the pot.
Set a timer:
4 min - soft boiled
6 min - gooey but partially set yolk
8 min - mostly solid yolk
10 min - solid yolk but still creamy and not overdone

Immediately put the eggs into a bowl of ice water for a couple mins after the timer runs out to stop them from further cooking.

Mixed greens with cocktail prawns, lump crab meat, and seared tuna, on a patio overlooking Monterey Bay.

Poached always seem too hard. I usually just make coddled eggs, which taste the same and are much easier. Buy an egg coddler, crack an egg into it, and put it in simmering water with the lid on the pot for about 5 mins.

I find poached eggs to be very easy, simply break the egg straight into boiling water - no need to mess around with anything else.

I sousvide my eggs at 145 for about an hour or so. Comes out very soft but not runny. I go to 150 if it's going in a salad or something.

Thanks for the poaching and boiling tips for eggs. Fun.
and can’t one make an amazing burger with sous vide?

Isn’t that the recipe for egg drop soup? :)

Gorgeous seafood :-)

This has been the weekend of buffalo chicken... Buffalo chicken cheesesteak Friday night, buffalo chicken sliders for lunch yesterday, buffalo chicken cheesesteak last night, and buffalo chicken sliders today.

The first cheesesteak was at a brewery and was lousy, which is probably why I had one on Saturday at another brewery, because I knew theirs was good.

corn cherry scone (poor rising - they’re the shape of cookies)
tartine toast - one Buttered and one with creamy peanut butter & morello cherry jam
coffee & water
cinnamon french toast
poached eggs with toasted & buttered bay’s English muffin
balled cantaloupe (very sweet and soft due to 1-2 days too many)
sliced bananas

It's like doing nothing but cooking in a restaurant.
