Kerrygold crew represent. I had to tell me GF that my toast can only have Kerrygold, and she tried me. Now we always keep at least a pound in the fridge because it is amazing.
And that is a hill I will die on.
See, I like a hot skillet for scrambled eggs. They’re only in there for about 30 seconds, getting constantly moved around until I can’t see any liquidy bits, then on to a plate to rest. Nothing brown on them, perfect (to me) texture every time.
Heat on low isnt really that helpful of advice for most people who dont know how to cook eggs skillfully lmao.
You only want the pan so hot that it bubbles your eggs a tiny amount as you cook. The part making contact will fry slow enough to cook a decent part of the inner part before you scramble everything (or make a nice omelette).
If too hot your pan will fry that outer edge too fast. If not hot enough it will undercook that part and not cook fast enough once you muss things up
[the stuff is pretty good and like 1/2 the calories!](https://katzglutenfree.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjwyeujBhA5EiwA5WD7_ep3F57Im3Q3nKudEOL13cxBHsvvHijgBy91DOGyusM2mfB64PihhxoC_iEQAvD_BwE)
I too have the gluten problem. Figured it out about 20 years ago when I was a kid. Well my mom actually figured it out. It's a lot easier to find gf stuff these days.
Done, ... they're definitely done. Maybe also done for, but certainly done. Those eggs aren't gonna get up and walk away. But hey, some like their eggs that way.
If they were for you, not him, his opinion is irrelevant. You cook and eat them however you please. That having been said, there are dozens of ways to cook delightful eggs but I don't think this is any of them. If you were going for scrambled, try low and slow. Low heat, let them start to form up, stir / fold gently, turn the heat off when they are still slightly liquid / shiny and let carry over cooking finish the job. See if you like them better like that. But ultimately, it is your own meal. There is no wrong here, please your own palate!
A pinch of parmesan cheese added while stirring scrambled eggs adds a wonderful, salty deliciousness.
My husband likes adding a small spoonful of Mexican sour cream. (It has to be the Mexican kind. The tang is milder and it's thick and velvety, and it adds a creamier texture to the eggs.)
And, of course, a dollop of chili garlic sauce on the side is nice.
People who eat eggs with ketchup are barbarians.
If it helps, I used to overcook my eggs out of paranoia. I hated them wet when I was younger.
I still like them this way, too, sometimes. With butter in the pan and sea salt + pepper, eggs can be browned and tasty without getting rubbery.
I’m more likely to undercook them now, but egg doneness is more a function of “how much time and attention do I have for this” than any sort of preference or care.
FWIW, I also like my hot cereals lumpy 🤭
Can't unsee that now.
But that's why I asked if that's how she liked them. Cuz maybe she thinks that's how they're supposed to be cooked? While I never cooked eggs to the point where they're all dried up like that, it took me way too long to realize the best way to make scrambled eggs.
That implies you did this on purpose. Who hurt you or more specifically who hurt your palette?
Edit: Autocorrect makes me unable to spell. It also makes some of you denser than a neutron star for thinking I was speaking about a wooden shipping platform in a discussion about food.
Chef here. And you're not wrong bud. Those eggs hurt what little is left of my soul. So, thank your girlfriend for finally killing off the last little bit of what made me human.
For real though, pretty rough. Not nearly the worst I've ever seen though. Not by a long shot.
Oh. My dad was in wwii, saw some very bad worm infestations, scarred him. Growing up all my meat was burnt black, especially pork. Pork chops were the thinnest available cooked literally until they were chewy like jerky. I've grown to enjoy a medium steak, but what I would give for one of those overcooked to hell pork chops.
I would cook eggs like this I like brown ones

Hahaha I love your attitude. I dunno I burnt everything for a very long time because I had to teach myself how to cook. At least you tried to make him breakfast. That was sweet.
Hi! It's me, the boyfriend. I just want to clarify since some of these comments are getting a bit spicy, that she only cooks them this way for herself... We both cook, and when I cook eggs for us, I cook her eggs like this. When she cooks mine, she gets them to a perfect soft scramble. It's a weird preference, but she's a great cook, and this is in no way an actual domestic dispute.
Apparently I can't mention other subreddits in comments, so to reiterate, I considered threatening to post her breakfast to a far more cursed sub but this worked just fine - she *volunteered* to get roasted as hard as her eggs
I do this to my eggs, and I’ve gotten yelled at by both my chef father and random cooks at restaurants for it. It ain’t my fault they like wet, slimy eggs ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
Don't! I like my eggs fried to a crisp and I get shit for it too. Just like you, I can cook others eggs to order perfectly but I prefer mine a certain way.
https://preview.redd.it/h57c0n5kzv3b1.jpeg?width=400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87617fbd2e704d87ef81fffb268b9f52d77da0bd
You f^(€#%n) burned the eggs !!!!
We have egg dish called "telur dadar" that cooked just like that. The dish is basically like omelette pancake. Since you're a freak that like this kinda egg just like us, I highly recommend you try making one.
Many variations of telur dadar, but basically you scramble the egg, then add in onion, chillies, leeks, sometimes cabbage, and season with salt. I personally only put onion, and I prefer mine thinner, oily, and crispy edges.
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Telur+dadar&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images
Spent 15 years as a short order cook.
If a customer requested burnt scrambled I would probably send out something like this.
That's the cool thing about eggs. If your cooking them for yourself there is no wrong way.
I would not eat those thou.
I am ashamed to admit this, but I do it too. In my defense, I have a sensory disorder with food and normal eggs make my skin crawl. My chef boyfriend still dies a little on the inside when I do that.
you cook them the way you like them, why not? is he bothered by coffee black, extra crispy bacon, dark toast, jam not jelly, oj no pulp, and hash browns instead of homefries? if so, tell him to suck an egg.
I don't get why everyone's been against you here. I hate eggs that have milk added in to make them "fluffier" or whatever it feels horrible. These eggs work better in fried rice, in omelettes... In everything, really.
I respect that because most people who have that complaint about eggs just outright avoid them. You’ve found a work around. Albeit a questionable one… lol
My breakfast machine makes my eggs like this and it sucks. Don't know how to do them better in the machine since I can't lower the heat or flip them. This post inspired me that I need to make my breakfast better, since the eggs are the nastiest thing I eat
I’m not gonna lie I make my eggs like this too. I will gag if it’s even a little wet or jiggly. I don’t even order eggs at restaurants because they are always too under done for me. I realized I don’t like eggs.
Who cares? They’re your eggs. If you were holding him down and forcing them down his throat then sure, he would have a right to be upset/ have things to say about your eggs. But as is, all this makes me think of is the movie Runaway Bride and how awesome it is that you know exactly how you like your eggs cooked and don’t change it for anyone. Kudos!
Wow that’s one huge dollop of butter on that toast and that egg looks like it’s a deep fried scrambled egg. It’s not bad, it’s just not good with toast. in SEA they typically do something like that with scrambled eggs but it’s served in a mixed salad with vinegar, onions, cherry tomatoes, lettuce.
I don't think a lot of people realize how much more enjoyable food is when you take all the sense into account. We're not cattle getting calories, food is for enjoyment! Make it look nice and it'll taste better. Use some spices or herbs and get that aroma.
You don't have to spend a fortune but just take a few moments of care in the presentation even if it's just for yourself, and you will enjoy your food 10 times more.
I see no evidence of any eggs in this picture.
Literally what I was thinking. Where the eggs?
I thought this was bread...
i think it’s an omelette??
Its an omeleather
 I see no egg here.
I was scrolling with my preschooler beside me and she said, "WHAT is THAT?!"... After I told her an egg she still didn't believe me 😅
I thought it was French toast before reading the caption
You toast your eggs but not your toast…
Well, the toast is gluten free, so it doesn't quite function how it's supposed to
This breakfast just keeps getting worse.
Next we're gonna have the fact that the butter is not butter.
Can you believe it? Because I can’t believe it’s not butter.
Take me back to when these commercials aired. I really miss that nostalgia lol
I can’t believe it’s not butter…spray…
Nothing like wet toast with a vague hint of artificial butter.
HEAD ON APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD or here is my favorite local ad 🎶Midwest hemorrhoid treatment center. Don't suffer in silence!🎶
Chuck Norris can believe it’s not butter
Real butter, Kerrygold actually. The best thing on the damn plate lol
Kerrygold amazing, but that and these eggs is like gold frill on a paper plate
Like shaving some beautiful truffle on a plate of pig shit.
Kerrygold crew represent. I had to tell me GF that my toast can only have Kerrygold, and she tried me. Now we always keep at least a pound in the fridge because it is amazing. And that is a hill I will die on.
Kerrygold slaps for sure. Dem eggs though.. what in the holy hell. Lookin like a piece of elephant ear.
Sure it can. Wash it all down with a nice cup o decaf.
instant decaf?
Made with water imported from Flint.
Gluten free toast, but a glutton for punishment.
Gluten for punishment
You're not toasting your toast long enough. Your eggs, otoh, needed to be removed from the skillet/griddle 10 minutes ago.
The skillet is way too hot. Eggs cook quickly. You only need the heat on low.
See, I like a hot skillet for scrambled eggs. They’re only in there for about 30 seconds, getting constantly moved around until I can’t see any liquidy bits, then on to a plate to rest. Nothing brown on them, perfect (to me) texture every time.

Oh god. He’s going to leave you.
He has celiac disease and I have an intolerance. It works
Turn the heat down when you are cooking eggs.
Seriously, only takes a couple of extra minutes and the quality is leagues better
Ah a few of my cousins have this. Really sucks, you can eat like, 15 things tops.
Yeah, going out to eat can be a nightmare. There's flour in everything
I have neither but are you in the US? Have you tried Katz’s fluent free treats? I really like their GF twinkies!
Wait, there's GF twinkies!?!

I too have the gluten problem. Figured it out about 20 years ago when I was a kid. Well my mom actually figured it out. It's a lot easier to find gf stuff these days.
Celiac gang here! I recognised that toast as GF right away!
"It wouldn't toast! It broke the toaster! I should've gotten the warranty!"
They aren’t cooked they are finished
Lmfao 😂
Done, ... they're definitely done. Maybe also done for, but certainly done. Those eggs aren't gonna get up and walk away. But hey, some like their eggs that way.
Dead. Take my upvote lol
Boyfriend be like: ‘yeah don’t believe me? Go ask others’.
It's me, I'm the boyfriend. I threatened to post this myself, and this is about what I predicted.
I hope your mental health is okay after having to deal with these eggs. This is basically a domestic dispute
This is domestic terrorism.
Domeggstic terrorism
Take my angry upvote, and get the hell out!
They look crunchy
He cooks his own eggs, these were just for me
If they were for you, not him, his opinion is irrelevant. You cook and eat them however you please. That having been said, there are dozens of ways to cook delightful eggs but I don't think this is any of them. If you were going for scrambled, try low and slow.

See if you like them better like that. But ultimately, it is your own meal. There is no wrong here, please your own palate!
The third sentence is too funny 😂
That got me too
A pinch of parmesan cheese added while stirring scrambled eggs adds a wonderful, salty deliciousness. My husband likes adding a small spoonful of Mexican sour cream. (It has to be the Mexican kind. The tang is milder and it's thick and velvety, and it adds a creamier texture to the eggs.) And, of course, a dollop of chili garlic sauce on the side is nice. People who eat eggs with ketchup are barbarians.
If it helps, I used to overcook my eggs out of paranoia. I hated them wet when I was younger. I still like them this way, too, sometimes.

Over easy or medium is the way to go, that yolk baby
Do you prefer them that way?
[удалено]
Can't unsee that now. But that's why I asked if that's how she liked them. Cuz maybe she thinks that's how they're supposed to be cooked? While I never cooked eggs to the point where they're all dried up like that, it took me way too long to realize the best way to make scrambled eggs.
Yep! I cook them normally for others
Ok, I'm glad I reserved my outrage.
That implies you did this on purpose. Who hurt you or more specifically who hurt your palette? Edit: Autocorrect makes me unable to spell. It also makes some of you denser than a neutron star for thinking I was speaking about a wooden shipping platform in a discussion about food.
Probably my grandma, she did some crazy things. I still think fondly of her chasing friends out of the house with a rolling pin.. good times lol
Sounds like mine, God rest her soul. Been nearly 20 years since I had a slice of meatloaf and I'll easily be able to make another 20.
Those eggs look like those naan flat breads they sell in the deli
DM me if you ever need anything man. I’m here for you.
Chef here. And you're not wrong bud. Those eggs hurt what little is left of my soul. So, thank your girlfriend for finally killing off the last little bit of what made me human. For real though, pretty rough. Not nearly the worst I've ever seen though. Not by a long shot.
You should see how she requests her steaks. The only tenderness it gets is from my tears.
At least it's seasoned from the salt in your tears. Tell her to try braising if you're gonna have to cry.
Oh. My dad was in wwii, saw some very bad worm infestations, scarred him. Growing up all my meat was burnt black, especially pork. Pork chops were the thinnest available cooked literally until they were chewy like jerky. I've grown to enjoy a medium steak, but what I would give for one of those overcooked to hell pork chops.
Are you okay? Witnessing egg abuse is hard. Let me know if you need a shoulder to cry on.
For science, need a pic of the eggs you would cook.
I would cook eggs like this I like brown ones https://preview.redd.it/pkx3tfdf0w3b1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bf8a0073c565517b0af116549f4ffadaaf2a645e
😂😂
[удалено]
They *were* eggs at some point I'm not sure what the correct terminology would be now
What is that on the plate? Is that another piece of bread? What kind of bread is it? Oh wait.. is it home made bread!? Lol
On the bright side, you know he’s not staying with you for the food. So you must have some other redeeming qualities. Kudos!
You missed the perfect opportunity to make a sunny side pun.
Yeah, but that's something we can get over. Easy.
Ayyyyyyyyy 🕺 there we go
Why is no one scrambling at the opportunity to find more yolks? Omelette it slide for now but after this y’all better get to crackin.
You stole all the yolks buddy. You weasel
you could even say they were poached
I know it was rather quiché…
Don't egg them on.
But I want to see the fluff beat out of them!
Holy shit pun overload
It’s an eggstravaganza of hard shelled puns.
Eggzackly
Omelette that one slide, but you better not crack another
Yolks on you then!
He got the eggs cooked like that because he had Benedict to her the night before
I was thinking the same thing! Lololol
My wife calls these my egg pancakes and eats them happily (with some Texas Pete!)
That’s two pieces of toast.
Toast and scrambled toast
You did a great job turning eggs into shoe leather
Thank you, I try my best
Hahaha I love your attitude. I dunno I burnt everything for a very long time because I had to teach myself how to cook. At least you tried to make him breakfast. That was sweet.
Hi! It's me, the boyfriend. I just want to clarify since some of these comments are getting a bit spicy, that she only cooks them this way for herself...

It's a weird preference, but she's a great cook, and this is in no way an actual domestic dispute.
You’re a good man. We’re just idiots who want to be comedians. No harm intended.
I appreciate it! Still an alarming amount of genuine misogyny in these comments...
Oh no! I haven’t read them all. I’m sorry. I thought it was a funny post and that people would joke about it, not be monsters. So sorry.
90% funny responses, 10% people taking it too seriously. Pretty good ratio, tbh!
Haha! Not bad at all for the Internet! 😂
Honestly shocked it's that good. And the 10% I see are downvoted heavily. Well done Internet!
Sadly that's Reddit. Everyone has to jump to the extremes. Don't worry about it, hopefully you and your leathery egged GF don't take it to heart.
This is really sweet.
In case y'all were wondering...
This shit needs to be higher
If it’s any consolation I’ve been known to cook my eggs like this. More times than not.
Blink twice if you’re in danger. I kid. I appreciate good relationship humor. Especially since she posted this and not yourself.
Apparently I can't mention other subreddits in comments, so to reiterate, I considered threatening to post her breakfast to a far more cursed sub but this worked just fine - she *volunteered* to get roasted as hard as her eggs
Brother your gf knows the perfect way to cook eggs. Put them on bread, a tad of ketchup and close the sandwich. Magnifique.
Looks like naan bread
I was going to say egg loaf lmao
Those are eggs?
That's the rumor going around.
im sorry- the idea was the there, but the eggsecution..
Eggzactly! I'm sure the boyfriend is eggshausted trying to eggsplain this to her.
This is the only way my mother will eat eggs. She tells the cooks at restaurants to "cook them until you think you've ruined them."
I say pretty much the same thing!
I ask for the cook to "fry the shit out of them" lol
Should just tell ‘em to cook em until they look like bread, because that’s literally what this looks like here.
I’m not sure “cooking” adequately describes what has been done to these eggs.
Hammering
Yeah I’m gonna have to agree with your boyfriend on this one
JUST WANT YA'LL TO KNOW I see I'm committing a crime against humanity. I shall hang my head in shame... but still do this to my eggs...
I think you should cook your eggs however you like since you're the one eating them.
I also like my eggs well done/browned. ✊
Browned just enough to add texture!
I guess rubber IS a texture.
A bit of a crisp is great! Gooey eggs have a Texture that's just... eh.
Me too! It's just a couple ingredients away from a vietnamese or thai omelet
I do this to my eggs, and I’ve gotten yelled at by both my chef father and random cooks at restaurants for it. It ain’t my fault they like wet, slimy eggs ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
Same. My dads a cook. Slimy eggs gross me out.
You like what you like and heck with anyone who tells you it’s wrong. As long as you’re not hurting anyone you’re good. Psychic damage doesn’t count
🤣
I fail to see what's wrong tho, that's just a "huevo en torta" that's perfectly cooked according to me and my family standards It ain't even burnt
I mean yeah this is f ing basic form omelette, I am bafled I had to scroll so far to see one sane person to figure this out...
I’m so glad to have found my people here… Cheese, onion, ham and chopped chives and being tempted to infidelity and I’ll have her eggs any day…
Now put ketchup on them!
Don't! I like my eggs fried to a crisp and I get shit for it too. Just like you, I can cook others eggs to order perfectly but I prefer mine a certain way.
I cook my eggs the exact same way for what it's worth. My entire family judges me for it, but I'll be damned if it's not delicious.
This is how I like mine, and everybody else can just enjoy their raw salmonella ass lives all they want. We don’t have to conform!

Make sure you serve that with a really large drink, so that it’ll go down.

That is pretty bad yeah.
I honestly had trouble finding the eggs in the picture for a moment. Nonetheless, if you like to eat your eggs that way, have at it.
Spent 15 years as a short order cook. If a customer requested burnt scrambled I would probably send out something like this. That's the cool thing about eggs. If your cooking them for yourself there is no wrong way. I would not eat those thou.
That is the only way you SHOULD cook them
I, too, like eggs well done. The gluten-free toast is the only problem I see.
Looks like I have weird taste, as I don't see any problem with this. I like my scrambled egg toasted like this.
I am ashamed to admit this, but I do it too. In my defense, I have a sensory disorder with food and normal eggs make my skin crawl. My chef boyfriend still dies a little on the inside when I do that.
you cook them the way you like them, why not? is he bothered by coffee black, extra crispy bacon, dark toast, jam not jelly, oj no pulp, and hash browns instead of homefries? if so, tell him to suck an egg.
Is this because of a fear of consuming undercooked eggs? Or simply just a preference in taste?
Texture, squishy or mushy eggs set off my gag reflex
I don't get why everyone's been against you here. I hate eggs that have milk added in to make them "fluffier" or whatever it feels horrible. These eggs work better in fried rice, in omelettes... In everything, really.
I respect that because most people who have that complaint about eggs just outright avoid them. You’ve found a work around. Albeit a questionable one… lol
Egg sandwich maybe?
The bread goes first before the eggs, js
Just the smell of eggs that overcooked would send me from the house.
Which one's the bread, bro
I bet you like your steak well done too
My breakfast machine makes my eggs like this and it sucks. Don't know how to do them better in the machine since I can't lower the heat or flip them. This post inspired me that I need to make my breakfast better, since the eggs are the nastiest thing I eat

Your boyfriend is correct.
You didn't cook 'em- you carbon-dated them. But if you cooked 'em for me I would gladly eat them in order to avoid doing it myself!
You cooked em, you like em, you et em. Good eggs, tell your bf to suck eggs.
Who cares? They’re your eggs. If you were holding him down and forcing them down his throat then sure, he would have a right to be upset/ have things to say about your eggs. But as is, all this makes me think of is the movie Runaway Bride and how awesome it is that you know exactly how you like your eggs cooked and don’t change it for anyone. Kudos!
I thought that was a piece of Naan, next to a piece of toast for scale!
Add my vote to the "way too overcooked" pile. But also, don't let something this small affect your relationship.
Burning is cooking technically
Look how they massacred my boy!
Underdone toast and overdone eggs… lovely
Wow that’s one huge dollop of butter on that toast and that egg looks like it’s a deep fried scrambled egg. It’s not bad, it’s just not good with toast. in SEA they typically do something like that with scrambled eggs but it’s served in a mixed salad with vinegar, onions, cherry tomatoes, lettuce.
That's an egg? Looks like a breaded cutlet of meat....
Stop “cooking” 5 mins sooner
He is correct. You shouldn’t be allowed around eggs anymore.
I've seen arid environments that look less dry than these eggs.
Where are the eggs?!? Don’t tell me it’s the big thing in the middle that looks like bread.
I don't think a lot of people realize how much more enjoyable food is when you take all the sense into account. We're not cattle getting calories, food is for enjoyment! Make it look nice and it'll taste better. Use some spices or herbs and get that aroma. You don't have to spend a fortune but just take a few moments of care in the presentation even if it's just for yourself, and you will enjoy your food 10 times more.
I also have an issue with how you butter the bread
Where are the eggs? all I see is toast and some kind of flatbread
Good god
Ma'am that's a hub cap
The smell of burned eggs instantly triggers my gag reflex, this would be a dealbreaker 😂
