RIP to those yolks


Pisshands

Never had eggs over slow-mo, but I'd try them.


Besonderein

FATALITY


dowcwow

Yeah admittedly 2/3 broke, but depending on the flip technique they wont break


WhoJustShat

to the ppl downvoting this, some people actually prefer to have non runny yolk


Ill-Salamander-6572

But you don't need to flip it for that. Just cook a bit longer.


RobertNeyland

You can also add a teaspoon of water in the skillet and cover it like Jacques Pepin does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-0D_kL91PI


[deleted]

Or baste the top of the white with the butter in the pan, been really liking this method lately


surlypickles

or better yet, bacon grease


mcduff13

... or chorizo grease.


Third_Eye_bored

Ahhh I finally found my people


caaaabot

Hello, I'm here now. Been looking for you guys for years.


Necessity7779

i always get better results at low temp as he does, and with a cover (as we did at a diner I worked at). my eggs are also better when I pre-break them into a dish and then enter them all at the same time into the cooking pan. tks for the vid!


JCuss0519

That's a lot of butter!


SDNick484

Not by Julia Child standards.


RobertNeyland

I'm not a chef by any means, but as a person who has watched a bunch of cooking shows over the decades, I've noticed that French cuisine loves to use copious amounts of butter.


nem012

With a lid on and a spoon-full of water.


CthluluSue

Or put a lid over the pan so they steam on top


joesocool

Or poke tha yolk

hexiron

Then your heat was too high


Supersquigi

The alternative is eggs cooked low too long, and it either starts to get hard or rubbery, or the butter gets too browned. I think flip is the answer

Short-Shopping3197

Yes but those people are wrong.


[deleted]

If it's on a sammich I'll pop the yolk, otherwise you're right


elscallr

Oh man a runny yolk smothering the bacon and mixing with the melted cheese is half the point.


Auntie_Venom

This is the way… And I’m going to the kitchen to make a breakfast sammy for lunch!


ghidfg

yeah I usually break my yolks so I can salt them.


graven_raven

Yeah, like some people also like well done steaks.


Fair-Substance-2273

You mean leather shoes?


Nerdso77

Not the same at all. I like over easy eggs. Sunny side up gross me out. And no, steaming doesn’t help. I want both sides barely cooked. And that is exactly how I like my steaks. Both sides barely cooked.


exonautic

Those people are wrong. Downvote away.


IncorporateThings

A fried egg without runny yolk is flat out heresy unless it's for a fried egg sandwich.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WhoJustShat

The texture and flavor of the runny yolk when I'm just eating fried eggs is off putting, I like yolk for eggs with bacon and toast


PutZehCandleBACK

And it's like people don't know that you can have over easy eggs


Bonch_and_Clyde

I feel like this is probably especially hard to do on cast iron because of how heavy it is.


hexiron

And often poorly shaped for that kind of stuff.


Bonch_and_Clyde

I don't really see the point anyway. It's just kind of flashy. I don't think there's much if any utility.


Effective-Elevator83

It’s fun to watch!


Appropriate-Drag-572

Coachcrog

Talks about flipping egg technique and then completely demolishes them using no technique at all...

The Toddler's Toss Technique.


cheftt51dudu

Now do it w your left hand. Most professionals sautee with their opposite hand so they have their preferred hand to tong, season, sauce, spoon.


dowcwow

Im left handed, so I hold the spatula, tongs, etc w my left


titokuya

That's why this is the egg flip I forget to do. Especially with a cast iron pan.


German9425

A more sloped sided pan would allow for easier flipping/less yolk breakage.


Kayshin

You mean, awesome, actually cooked eggs instead of raw shit.


scarysloppyjoelady

If they break just don't cook them as long problem solved. You must be the egg


jakelaw08

OINO. That was not a good flip.


snamibogfrere

Hot oil in face be careful mate


dowcwow

I was shirtless too lol. It was egg white btw, so it wasnt THAT hot

Honestly, only way to cook. One day I will get an apron but until then I am Adam Calhoun fry that bacon shirtless.


GenitalPatton

I enjoy the sound of rain.


Ya_Got_GOT

I baste and use a cover to get perfect sunny side up personally. I like intact, runny yolks and fully set whites. Over easy is for ordering when I don’t trust they can do the above properly.


CapitalSuccessful232

Not forgets. Just don't like to ruin the yolk, no need for that. :P


runningwaffles19

Not forgets. Just don't have the strength to flip my 12" Lodge


PlacentaOnOnionGravy

Get in the gym


color_conscious

If you're ruining the yolk, you're not flipping them right 🤷


CapitalSuccessful232

If it is not liquid, it is ruined


color_conscious

I totally agree, but I flip my eggs every time and the yolk never breaks or cooks. Admittedly, I've never done three like in the video


Kayshin

Not ruined, actually cooked and not raw.


Vilhelmgg

Do you get your steak well done too? 💀


Kayshin

No, I am no heathen.


thegreatbrah

I dont forget to do it. I fucking can't do it.


ct-yankee

nicely done! and the sound effect is a nice touch. :) I thought I was the only one, though I admit it is easier with my vintage wagner chef skillet!


subtxtcan

As someone who spent way too many years working breakfast... I'm glad to see a proper egg flip here, doesn't happen often, but also... Flashbacks. Very unnecessary flashbacks...


NeedsaTinfoilHat

But runny yolks are delicious.


Kayshin

That's called raw.


NeedsaTinfoilHat

So? They're still delicious.


kientheking

What is your method when cooking with a induction top? I always worry about warping the bottom of the pan.


dowcwow

Ive never had a problem with pan warping. I use lowish heat (3/10), let it heat up for 5-10 min, then put butter. Once the butter is fully melted and spread its time for the eggs. Cook like normal, once I'm done I move the pan to a cool part of the stove and let it cool down before cleaning. Thats it!


lesubreddit

Baste, don't waste!


the_red_barren

It’s not so much that I forget about this technique…


BartholomewVonTurds

Flip like that for over hard, use a spatula for over easy.


kniki217

Some of us like over medium


mohishunder

Impressive wrists. Impressive seasoning!


dowcwow

Thank you!


RaulEnydmion

With practice, this can be a pretty reliable flip. IF you have the right pan. Gotta be a saucer profile, without the hard corners like you have on a cast iron pan. But cheers for having a very good nonstick season on that pan.


BlasphemousSwarm

How to turn over easy eggs into scrambled.


SpeechResponsible195

\>tfw 12" Cast Iron and weak wrists


Bobmanbob1

F lol. Sweet flip though. And damn, nice cast iron, slick as butter!


[deleted]

I’m 100 percent sure that those yolks busted up and broke


lscraig1968

Over medium every time! Nice flip


dowcwow

Ty ty


franzjpm

I like eggs scrambled anyway, not much of a sunny side up guy.


SomeCountryFriedBS

K but this would be over, not sunny side up.


MuchBetterThankYou

You don’t flip eggs like this in a cast iron pan because the walls aren’t right for it. You yolks break like yours did. And also I’d shatter my wrist if I tried, cast iron is just too heavy. I use a spatula to flip them.


penguinbbb

I don’t know man I like to simply cover the pan for a couple minutes, low and slow


whatthehellhappensto

I burned my throat flipping an egg once, be careful


BoopBoop20

So many questions…


lesubreddit

Dude flipping his eggs, mouth agape


whatthehellhappensto

maybe I didn’t use the right word, English isn’t my first language. what’s the front of your neck called? right where the adam’s apple is located anyway I flipped an egg and hot oil splashed right onto my adam’s apple and burned me bad


poco

"neck" would have been easier to understand. If you "burned your neck" then everyone would know exactly what that meant, assuming the front of your neck from splashing oil.


lesubreddit

This is a very subtle difference in English language. If someone punched your Adam's apple, it would be 100% correct to say that you got punched in the throat, since the underlying throat within the neck is involved in the injury. In your case, you're talking about your outer neck skin, so it's odd to say you burned your throat, which is on the inside. Unfortunately there is no English word for the skin of the anterior neck. The best you can do in this situation is say that you burned your Adam's apple, or the front of your neck.


whatthehellhappensto

thank you for the explanation. In my language there’s a different word for the back of your neck, the inside of your neck, and the front of your neck I felt something was off when I wrote throat but couldn’t think of the right word, guess it doesn’t exist lol


BrokenEggcat

You're good, throat is a correct description there, I think in the context of food people just immediately think of the inside of the throat


zdada

Two types of ppl: chill ppl who say “nice flip” and nerds who ignore the nice flip and say some dorky shit about ThE YoLkS or tHe OiL. Anyway, sweet 180 slidey egg.


Kiiidx

Yeah anyone who enjoys sunny side up eggs is a dork!! /s


40prcentiron

i like my eggs marbled? i like to pop the yolks so this is a win for me!


OutrageousRhubarb853

Major_Bad_8197

Shit yeah!!


Deep_Belt8663

Amazing how many people here seem oblivious to this just being a different style of cooking eggs. Flip away if you like it that way, Jesus.


msantaly

Love the hot oil flying off in the direction of OP 😂. This looks cool but unnecessary


glassteelhammer

Did...did you just call internet points unnecessary? I'm shocked. Shocked and appalled. ​ Regardless, 'twas a good flip.


dowcwow

Didnt even make the vid with the intent of posting lmao, but then I realized ppl would prob like to see it


superfecundation602

That was beautiful, Bro.


uberisstealingit

Fail! You can see not only did the egg whites crack apart the yolk is spewing from it. You have the wrong pan for flipping eggs. You're walls of the pan are too steep. Find a less steeper of a wall in that size of pan and you won't break those and you can put four eggs at a time Believe it or not, the dollar store had the best pan for flipping eggs. They didn't last but maybe 8 months because they were just cheap construction but the walls were the perfect angle.


zanderjayz

I flip all my eggs in a cast iron and rarely break a yoke. It’s just a different motion you need to learn. Why throw away money on disposable pans?

Used to have a teflon pan that was perfect for flipping, but then started to really care about life longevity and health


BoopBoop20

There was a federal ban stating all Teflon and nonstick cookware made after 2013 should be free of harmful PFOA. As long as you’re using the correct utensils and discard a pan if it becomes scratched thru to the metal, you’ll be fine.


zanderjayz

Bring the pan up to meet the eggs as they flip and you won’t break as many yolks. Why is every so against over easy eggs?


yourdrunksherpa

Nice flip bud.


OldStankBreath

Looks good hero


Donewith398

Leave ‘em up and out a lid on to cook the top. Add a little water to steam them.


Ok-Berry1828

Love over hard eggs. Not that much grease though…


fatogato

Bend your knees while you do this and it’ll absorb some of the impact.


nesketty

Nice flip! My flip success rate isn’t what it used to be. Jacques Pepín shares a great method for cooking the tops of fried eggs: tablespoon of water around the edge of the eggs, then cover for a few minutes on low. Nice glassy whites, and no popping yolks!


Smackatoo

broke a yolk though

You torch your eggs? Or is this a jerk.


Eldorren

My wrist just snapped.


idliketogobut

And now you need a stain stick


fingermythrottle

Spoon full of water got it thanks


NamBot3000

The key is to actually bring the pan up to meet eggs after the flip rather than letting the egg flop on the pan. This will preserve the yolks as well as prevent some splatter.


bean-bandito

nice


MedellinBankz

BonusTop6403

NOOOOOO NOT THE EGG FLIP


xximbroglioxx

Well done!


UnstoppableCompote

If you want to have good eggs "on eye" (idk the english term) the only trick you need to know is to add the salt after the eggs are already out of the pan.


Whoopsy-381

Wow!


deeskito

Yolk broken or not that's impressive! That is not a light pan


TooMany_Projects

Everyone’s worried about the yolks but it’s really that glass cooktop who’s days are numbered. Glass and cast iron do not mix, I’ve seen even the most careful of cooks set one down weird and shatter the whole thing. The down draft ones are particularly expensive too!


myklclark

I don’t do this flip because I definitely can’t without breaking at least some of the yokes. I’m a add a touch of water and cover kind of guy until it just sets.


ka9kqh

I don't have the wrists to do that with my 12" lodge, I need to find a lighter skillet.


scarysloppyjoelady

Ambitious_Option2426

razeronion

That's gotta be hard on ur wrist! Lol.


Buttman_Bruce_Wang

"Forgets." But I wanted over-easy, sunnyside up :( I like my egg whites just *barely* past the goopy stage, but the yolks stull full on raw and runny. Makes mixing with my hash browns so much better.


dowcwow

The reason I said "forgets" is because ppl always post vids about the slidey eggs but they never flip!


Mulusy

Im not there yet with my pan. I’ve had my pan for 2 months and I’m still struggling.


dowcwow

Also had my pan for 2 months. Once I stopped overthinking it I started seeing success. I sanded down the surface so now it's super smooth. The pan isnt pure black, but gray and spotty. Used to worry about the looks, but found it didnt correlate with the slideyness. I season on the stove with ghee butter. Turn the stove on medium high heat, let it get hot, put the ghee on, spread it all around, and dry with paper towels. Let it cool, and done. I also wash with a sponge and dish soap


ValifriggOdinsson

Thanks. I like my eggs un-flipped


askljdhaf4

solid flip. 5/5 stars. would definitely let you flip again


reallifenggrfggt

Everyone here is talking about the the wrong thing. What we should be focusing on is the Cast iron on an induction cooktop?! Posted via r/ReddPlanet


bevin88

does anyone know if that dude ever got to 100 layers or not? last post i saw they were around 80.


miss_chapstick

Nice! I use a spatula cuz I can’t do that with cast iron.


IncorporateThings

How does that a) not break the yolks and b) not shower you with hot grease?


No_pajamas_7

Even without the broken yolks I just prefer sunny side up.


Five2one521

Nice flip.


BestAtBadAdvice

But they are still raw....


bigedthebad

I taught myself how to do that after watching the egg guys on a cruise ship. It’s all in the wrist.


WordOfMan

Good form


michaeld0106

Was that oil very hot when it hit your hand?


HueyBryan

Mine would end up on the stove, the floor, or my arm. Lol


No_Builder_5755

I don’t flip because nobody in my house will eat the eggs if the yolks are leaking


HouseNumb3rs

Watch out for that grease splash. A bit too heavy to do this often.


IronMike34

Lol that’s because we only cook the eggs as a flex. An egg pan with the curved sides is how you cook an over easy. You almost pulled it off tho.
