A chicken egg is not as easy as it sounds. This will be confirmed by anyone who has ever tried the "rubber" eggs. A properly cooked egg is a real culinary achievement, it is filled with beneficial enzymes and substances.

Boiled eggs

1. Fill a small saucepan three quarters full with water and bring to a boil.
2. Using a spoon, gently pour eggs into the water and set the timer.
3. Watch the water closely while the eggs are boiling. Maintain a gentle boil.
4. When the timer rings, take out the eggs from the boiling water with a spoon and place them in cold water for 1 minute.
5. Clean and enjoy.

Omelet

2 eggs + 1 yolk 1 tsp cream salt and pepper 1 tbsp butter

1. Break the eggs into a bowl, season and pour in the cream. Beat with a fork until evenly light yellow.
2. Melt butter in a skillet on a strong window, when it melts and begins to foam, add eggs and reduce the temperature to low. Stir constantly with a spatula while cooking.
3. When the omelet is ready, but still looks too moist, put on a plate and let stand for 5-10 minutes. The egg continues to cook even when it cools down.

Poached egg

1. Fill a small saucepan three-quarters with water and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low simmer
2. Add 2 tsp. white vinegar in water.
3. Break the egg into a small bowl or bowl.
4. Stir the water with a wooden spoon, creating a vortex. Carefully pour the egg into the center of the funnel, it should twist a little around its axis. Watch the temperature of the water - it should not boil too much.
5. After ten seconds, carefully check with a slotted spoon to see if the egg is stuck to the bottom of the pot.
6. Put the finished egg on a paper towel with a slotted spoon and serve immediately.

Fried eggs"

1. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat.
2. Break the egg into a frying pan, season to taste.
3. Fry eggs, uncovered, for three minutes. The readiness of scrambled eggs is determined by the rich color of the protein and a thin toasted line around the edges. The egg yolk should remain liquid.

Double sided scrambled eggs

Such scrambled eggs are prepared in almost the same way as "fried eggs".

1. Heat oil, crack an egg and season to taste.
2. Fry for about two minutes, take a thin and wide spatula and gently turn over, being careful not to break the yolk.
3. To preserve the soft-boiled yolk, immediately turn off the stove and let it brew for about a minute, for a strong hard-boiled yolk, fry for another 1-2 minutes, then let it brew.
