Because they’re loaded with protein, vitamins, and minerals, eggs are the perfect way to start your day. But since they can be cooked in a myriad of ways, you may be unsure how to order them at your favorite breakfast spot. Learn about three of the most popular choices below. 

3 Delicious Ways to Enjoy Eggs

1. Fried

Fried eggs are perfect alongside bacon or sausage and toast with jam. Cooked on the griddle in butter or oil, fried eggs are available in a variety of styles. For example, sunny side up eggs are those that aren’t flipped during cooking, so the yolk remains soft and undisturbed. Eggs that are flipped can be over easy (runny yolk), over medium (semi-solid yolk), or over hard (solid yolk). 

2. Scrambled 

When whisked with milk or cream, scrambled eggs turn out light and fluffy. For added flavor, many restaurants will throw in a bit of shredded cheese before cooking the scrambled eggs on the griddle. While they’re tasty enough to be enjoyed alone, scrambled eggs are often found in breakfast sandwiches and burritos because they retain their shape and don’t drip yolk with every bite. 

3. Poached

Poached eggs are made by cracking them into a vortex of simmering water. This creates a pillowy egg comprised of soft whites with runny yolks. The standard accompaniment to eggs Benedict, they can also be enjoyed alongside bread, meat, and other breakfast staples, like oatmeal and grits.
