How to Set a Fried Egg - CHOW Tip

[AnnetteLamour]

No...this is NOT how to make the perfect fried egg. Look up how to make a basted egg!

[ItsFizikal]

if you watch Chef John on foodwishes, he turns the heat down entirely before putting the lid on it. I tried cooking an egg today using his method, actually I cooked several eggs like he showed, and they all turned out great.

[majid6666]

too baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad !!!!!!!

[iPezzei]

That egg looked fucking gross.... REALLY LADY?

[Bytowngal81]

The bottom of that egg has that gross plastic-like overcooked stuff. Thumbs down. I also just add a bit of water to the pan and cover it briefly. The water method also works amazingly for omelettes... puffs steam under them and releases them if they are sticking, then evaporates, leaving them moist.

[olbas2]

why is it that cooking teachers allways fucking suck

[sharpkeet]

I usually coat my eggs in a fresh batch of Doritos consommé.

[angie13ox]

Hey, I recognize this woman from Chopped!

[MsDreamscape]

These are not the eggs you are looking for. Move along, move along.

[jamesingtonthethird]

Put oil in pan, heat oil slightly, until you start to see bubbles but before it starts steaming... put egg in.. cook on lowest heat. wiat until slime goes away... serve... there you go... an egg..

[itsRyanLiew]

if u want a runny yolk with the whites completely cooked, just spoon some o' that oil on top of the egg ... it'll cook that white part without completely cooking the yolk

[Xxthe12reaperx]

I usually flip my eggs after a min or two on one side. I usually dont wain 80 years to make an egg.

[BoredinTo]

Once the bottom of the egg has set, I add a tablespoon of water to the pan cover for 30 seconds. The steam will set the top of the egg perfectly and the water will help release the egg from the bottom of the pan. 30 more seconds without the lid to let the water evaporate and I have a perfect fried egg...Without the gross burnt to death bottom shown above.

[Delcaroll]

10 to 15 seconds? That looked more like 10 to 15 minutes.

[toolsound]

Why are you recommending this to me youtube? WHY?!

[LapisGarter]

Who fries eggs in olive oil? You need to use butter so you can baste the egg and it turns out delicious and cooked perfectly all over.

[sorayared]

IT. IS. BURNT.

[Borbuster]

The way you really do it is spoon the fat on top of the egg. That fat should be from the bacon you just cooked in the pan.

[hugmeshootme]

You should heat the pan prior to adding the oil. When the oil's hot enough, add the egg and cook as you would like it. Heating the pan and oil helps the egg to not stick to the pan.

[icicicles]

so not to burn the bottom like you did I put the led on from the start.

[RobGThai]

Or add more oil and spoon it on top of the egg.

[DaMagicConchShell]

i think people should give this egg lady more shit than the consomme lady.......

[oxxadamxxo]

or just flip it and don't burn it.

[OmegaRecon65]

Hey there Faye. Loved seeing you on "Chopped" Was sorry to see that they let you go. I thought you had a lot of energy and ideas. I was cheering for ya. What Im about to say, please dont take offense. Now, for that egg that you cooked. Would you really serve that thing? I know that I wouldnt, and Im just a line cook at a fast food restaurant. Try serving that ugly thing to Gordon Ramsay and lets see how fast he can hurl it at you. One more Kitchen Nightmare setup

[MrFunkehMonkeh]

Looks shit compared to mine.

xox

[GiveMeTheButt]

theyre not burned retards that what butter does

[mspatti]

@GiveMeTheButt That's what burned butter does.  Low heat, take your time and flip the egg.

[vadont]

who the hell love burned eggs ??

[jngwatson]

Uh . . . no, it's not the egg I'm looking for. You should have done a retake on that part of the video.

[817seanwhite]

FUBAR

[dezmika]

OR just use a lower heat.

[jowiefjiwejf]

Yeah I agree this is a good way to burn an egg... uselessly..

[carlosmendezbogota]

hmmm, deliciuous burnt egg. Very good - like the eggs in Bolivia!

[magnacore11]

Faye Delicious?!?! She's got some audacity!! 

[korhan]

well that's burnt?!?!? you could also get what you want putting the lid from the beginning.

[JustCausePwnzr]

YOUR DOING IT WRONG!

[nipponese]

WHOA SO YOU'RE TELLING ME DISTRIBUTING THE HEAT WILL EVENLY COOK THE FOOD? GENIUS!

[SHESABUTE]

ITS BURNT!!

[jrg8008]

You're doing it wrong.

[MrRealitynaut]

That brown should not be there. :-/ If you want a perfect egg, fry it on Med-Low heat in light olive oil(or butter if not health concious) and watch it. It only takes five minutes to cook from the bottom up, sunny side up style,(with no gel and with out burning the bottom) if you crack the egg when the pan is hot. NO LIDS NECESSARY. Sorry chow, this is my first dislike.

[808MAUIpnoi74]

Seriously!!! Is all Chow's videos like this? I swear you fucking hired retards. Even my little daughter knows hows to cook eggs better then this lady. I swear your videos are lame as your so called chef.

[Onimyst]

@808MAUIpnoi74 You sound like a lovely parent.

*dramatically shakes head in disappointment and walks away*

[elliments]

i dont think that was 10 seconds

[Kronikwookie]

i lol'd hard when she revealed the "perfect" egg.

[WoeBeUntoUs]

@Kronikwookie Yeah, I watched this shit at night and I laughed my ass off so hard, I have no idea how something like this could be so comedic for me, it's also a bit sad. ._.

[TheMSH109]

Dear Madam. I think you burnt part of your egg.

[ACobaltBomb]

Doesn't look burnt to me. I like the crispy edges.

[omgsothatsmatt]

at least she ain't burning crack anymore,

[Therealpimprr]

i dont get it, did noone stop and think," wow this egg is burned as hell, we should redo this video". noone thought it looked gross before uploading this???

[mmdizzle465]

Yaa... perfect cooked egg with burnt edges around? lol dkm

[hash1212121212]

lol...........................­.......... YOUR EGG IS FUCKIN BURNED I FUCKIN RAGED SO HARD AT THE FUCKING END WHAT IN THE FUCK IS THIS GARBAGE SHIT. EITHER A) LEARN TO FUCKING FLIP AN EGG 2) LEARN TO FUCKIN COVER THE EGG BEFORE HAND SO BY THE TIME THE TOP GETS COOKED THE BOTTOM ISNT BURNED AND TURNED INTO SHIT. FOR FUCKS SAKE.

[geurgeury]

@hash1212121212 I think you're taking it way too seriously

[Salahuddin2009a]

But the bottom is burned!

[XOXOLazyXOXO]

I add a bit of water and cover it with a lid to make the stem cook thewhite stuff on top, not burn the bottom till it looks like shit.

[fsfsto]

what the fuck ?! thats not an egg !! you've burnt it all up BBBIIIIOOOOOTCHH

[dying2comment]

fail

[alsaif2810]

my balls look a lot better than your fried egg!

[harmonyzc]

I don't think that's the egg i'm looking for

[heidishoshana]

How to set a fried egg. Crack your egg into a pan on medium heat and once the egg has cooked just a little bit, pour in some water and lid it. The whole thing will steam on a lower heat and cook perfectly without burning on the bottom

[direwolfmusic]

i actually love crispy bits on the bottom. but perfect egg? nah, you fucked up son...

[MrRychu85]

THIS IS BURNED!!!YOU KILLED IT!!

[depture]

Burnt edges and underdone yolk.

YES, THIS IS DEFINITELY THE PERFECT EGG...

[Shevshenkoo]

perfect???? no way she's drunk or what???

[Vietnigamese]

At least shes in the kitchen better know how to make a sandwich ooooweeee

[Saarraaahhhh]

that's a lot of oil D:

[Shanongao]

HAHA the best part is that shes a cooking teacher!

[smilyface38]

If she isnt even good in the kitchen she is hopeless



[CMBrannstrom]

Chow is a fucking joke

[Bagelstorm]

Its pretty funny how they they don't even show the bottom, yet just from the sides i can tell its burnt to shit

[plumbermancan]

Only thing fried here is your brain,,,gee wiz.



[GraemeBoddy]

No you don't...with a spatula, just flip a little of the oil onto the yolk. Easy

[TheAndrew1987]

lol that egg i cooked when i was 10 lmao

[Z1nt]

She's retarded .

[chefjefff]

the perfect egg - perfectly burned.

[jujusworld]

wow, this was so helpful... fuck you.

[SAV596]

@jujusworld haha

[myaclick]

the egg whites look like your hair.........

[HiAznHello]

i like my yellow part mushed..

[cptmuska]

absolutely disgusting lol uncooked yolk and still looks runny, my eggsa re NOt that watery to begin with lol

[PinuyashaRPG]

I don't even need Obi-Wan to tell me these aren't the eggs I'm looking for.

[CrookedSmirk]

Disgusting. Do you really take yourselves seriously?

[EjPwned]

r u fucking kidding??? the egg is fucking burnt

[nadiemequire]

Yuck. That's not the egg I'm looking for.

[oklok2010]

perfectly burned edges....

[watashiwalignum]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAhaHAhAHahAH­ahAHAhaHAHAHAHAHAHAHah EPIC FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAIIIIILL

[gato90909]

"Show tits"

[HughThree]

Show me a burned egg and tell me it's perfect ?

Faye, you should get into politics.

[lollig1234567890]

the perfect egg.. with a tumor.

[no2religions]

You're kidding right? I've seen more perfect eggs on a McMuffin. You people could even be bothered to do a second take where you don't burn the fuck'n thing and slosh white all over the yolk? How are we supposed to take you seriously if you make a how-to where it doesn't even look like it works?

[yanaburr]

Or you could use a spoon? Tilt the pan a little, take some of the oil using the spoon, and pour the hot oil on top of the frying egg :|

[datzfast]

Jesus fucking Christ, fire the cook. if i were served that i would demand to see the manager, i take my cold eggs and warm them in a bowl of hot water, then, the white cooks evenly in the first place without covering. and the bottom is tender and not polymerize into a plastic varnish that may not even be digestible any longer.

[ArmTriangleChoke]

@datzfast if you order eggs you're a dumb shit and deserve to go to hell.

[datzfast]

@ArmTriangleChoke the only hell you are ever going to see is if you cook me an egg that looks like this. that i can promise.

[BloodWolfGirl99]

umm yea i dont think thats perfect

[elaine31347]

Yeah, but you BURNED the bottom of the egg!

[AppleFlavouredCheese]

CHOW is for idiots, but also made by idiots and starring idiots...

[MusicforMe123]

That is one uuuuuuuggggggglllyyy egg...far from perfect.

[kopaganda13]

Well she did say "if you don't want to flip your egg".

[d2k82]

ive noticed it goes by faster and better if you add a little water to it too before you put the lid on

[caninemanagement]

no no no... she is doing it all wrong... start with bacon fat and then fry till crispy :)

[intoximacated]

Whoever thinks that this egg is burned and won't be any good- you're an idiot, it looks great.

[MrmarioRBLX]

What I do is:

beat the egg in a small bowl

add some salt and pepper

add some oil to the pan

medium heat

then I add the egg mixture

[carvin2003]

add a spoonful of water before you cover it

[Nippyton]

Wow Im really craving eggs, How should I do them up? Hard Boiled? Soft Boiled? easy over? Cancer fucking burnt dangerous looking? Why not. Wow I could make a video on it!

[MrJwreich]

The egg was burnt! No good. Try this the next time, turn down the heat, add a small amount of water (just a few drops) cover and cook until the top of the white is solid, stop your done! For me personally, if the white is wet on top, I'm fine, can't stand a burnt bottom.

[kristilinadecolores]

You're doing it all wrong...

[hakerqx]

Perfect egg: Before getting to that point and covering the egg, you first put butter in the pan, than the egg and cover it even before it gets white, when you see its going to burn, you just realized that you lost you time reading this comment, theres your perfect egg, without burning like that amateur did..

[Vespene]

troll tips.

[True620]

I'm sorry, good in theory but, I would have to feed the burnt egg to my dog. Maybe you should cover it a little sooner???

[baguiopunx]

This isn't a "perfect egg". Just a cooked egg with too much oil.

If you want a "perfect egg", just heat the pan properly, spread at least 4 drops of oil, heat the oil, place the egg, a pinch of salt on top, then turn the heat to it's lowest, wait until the "slime" goes away, then it's done and doesn't have a burnt edges.

[billisdone]

This is NOT the egg I was looking for. Burned edges? No thanks.

[Thegoldstarman]

0:01 show tits!

[CATpoopX]

you need to put the led from the start noob !! go play call of duty lol

[RusDion]

perfect egg!!! I need to sit on my eggs!!

[TRobinson555]

This is a joke right?!

[JONSEY73]

I cant dislike this video enough!!!!!

PEOPLE SERVE BURT EGGS ITS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!

[phillipgaley]

@JONSEY73 Oh, c'mon; it wasn't BURNED—it was just a little bit brown and crispy around the edges, . . .

[MrGoodCookin]

LOL dumbass

[daisy1777]

its sooo perfect!

[deettle]

You're an idiot! This is NOT a perfect egg. If you turn the heat down, put a small amount of water in the pan and put the lid on for the entire cooking time...then you could achieve the perfect egg without flipping it...what you presented was a shribbled up, burnt piece of crap!

[0709mykayla]

@deettle u are absolutely right my gma does her eggs the way u explained it when i was watching this i was like wtf ewww

[mbs306]

@deettle what you did is basically what a chef would call a poach. but i do it anyway! :)

[theliberator1]

@mbs306 no, what it is is frying the egg, and adding a teaspoon of water to the hot pan and catching the steam in the lid, sealing the top of the yolk and whites.

poaching is where you boil a pot of water with a pinch of salt or vinegar, swirl the water once it's boiling, drop the egg into the whirlpool and let it sit for 5 minutes off the boil until set.

[mbs306]

@theliberator1 theres more than one type of poaching, idiot......

[theliberator1]

@mbs306 Poaching is the process of gently simmering food in liquid, generally milk, stock or wine.

the process being used here is frying, without liquid and then addingan amount to create steam in a pressurised environment to seal the uncooked top of the egg.

poaching is cooked in liquid from the beginning. moron.

[mbs306]

@theliberator1 no, there is also the type of poaching when in its own juices, like when you add the water to the egg and put the lid, makes steam and poaches it in the steam of the egg flavorful liquid.

watch alton brown explain it, he can do it better!



[theliberator1]

@deettle this is exactly what i was thinking.

[ChathamFr0]

@deettle This is precisely how I do it, except I remove it from heat, pepper it and cover it for about 30 seconds or so. I too prefer the outer edges crisp, not a "burnt piece of crap". Works perfectly, every time for me.

[MrZotZot]

@deettle lol

[tiptopluongo]

yup, it's also burnt! Just what I want, crunchy eggs!

[hombrerelents]

Flip the damn thing or flick oil over the egg with your fish slice.

[ParkLeeNa]

Can you please take this shitvideo off? This is ridiculous, and makes CHOW look bad.

[iPhTx3]

If I told my girl to make me a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and she made this for me... I would hit the bitch.

[pepsidude2007]

for a teacher of cooking..wow she doesnt know much and dont wanna have her cooking my eggs for breakfast..hmmm burnt is a flavor? lol

[russiangyal]

take this video off!........you're teaching the wrong way, here's a tip............. cook the egg on low heat and use a small spoon to scoop the hot oil unto the top of the egg, do this several times until it's cooked to your likness............... adding the lid(like she did) puts mositure into the pan, thus......the burnt egg!

[psykofreaksz]

This egg is burnt. FAIL

[CosmicDamian]

Good for a laugh. 10 seconds with the lid on and the egg goes from slime to black underneath? Is that a stove or a nuclear reactor??? Come on guys, toss the egg and make another video...

[xINVISIGOTHx]

burnt edges!!

[MCCENTx2]

Cook 2 minutes on medium, cover it and cook on low for about 6 more minutes. they wont burn and come out pefect

[lordmagicpants]

This has to be a joke. Hilarious.

'Show tits' is a bonus at the beginning too.

[puppylover22580795]

It's burned!!!!!

I would rather eat it when it's slimey and stuff..

Though I flip it....

Well too bad for who doesn't flip it , or eat it like the slimy way because you'll have to eat it BURNED! :D

[vadont]

i don't want a burned Egg

[ratonL]

She forgot to mention it gets burnt too...

[adikeno]

Why don`t you make a movie of "how to eat that extra crispy egg" ?

[kpeavey2]

That's one nasty looking egg.  You want to cook an egg right? Try a cast iron skillet and a little less heat.

[wtfisthatvid]

0:26 looks like shit compared to my perfect 0:17

[KittyDreadful]

these are not the droids you're looking for...

[leoliu08]

That slimy jelly "kind of stuff" is your brain.

[WhiteRoarBlack]

@leoliu08 This your brain on drugs... Any questions?

[lvl9001Troll]

@leoliu08 i lold

[aceada]

We found the eggs we are looking for.

[chriscrox70]

I got hungry and i put the sound at 50% and it said show tits and my girl friend walked in and thought i was looking at naked women i was lucky

[ekstaasikontiainen]

Wow. She looks like a crackhead.

[NanoMintx]

How to Set a Burnt Fried Egg

[fuckinregistration]

i've never seen such a ridiculous tip

[levitabusman]

that looked fucking shit i cook better without a lid and i flip it over and it still looks better and i keep it runny explain that you fucking dumb bitch

[bluelikekrishna]

actually. cook the egg on a lower heat and use the spatula to pierce through the white in a few places. doesn't burn, and the white cooks completely.

and if all else fails - UNDERCOOK IT a little! US eggs are mostly safe and there's nothing grosser than an overcooked yolk.

[joemay5]

lol no, u get a spoon scoop up the hot fat, and drizzle it along the top...never told a bitch to get out the kitchen before..

[mhdozier]

You're doing it all wrong.



[goatboytone1]

These aren't the eggs you're looking for.

[SuzukiAkiraReita]

Wow! I didn't know that... it's all over burned as hell. the perfect fried egg is made without any oil and brown edges.

[iwantsquareballoons]

this channel always shows incompetency, it's burned!

[frac]

A homeless dude cooking a stolen egg on a hubcap over a burning tire could do a better job.

[TheBaschtl]

Why don't YOU put a lid on it.. .

[hanest3842]

Slimy... jelly... stuff. Clearly, she's using the technical terms.

[hosj321]

Ummmmm....this is burned.

[jas68maro]

just use your spatula to cut slits into the egg white while its cooking and the clear stuff will fill up into the cuts and cook over into one piece anyways. its easier, faster, and you dont have a cover to wash.
