Eggs are a classic breakfast food and are naturally loaded with protein and vitamins. As an added bonus, they’re delicious and available in dozens of preparations in restaurants across the globe. Here are a few popular styles to consider for your next order.

What Are Some Common Egg Preparations?

1. Scrambled

Created by slowly heating one or more eggs that have been beaten together to puncture the yolks, scrambled eggs are often finished with salt, pepper, or a sprinkling of light herbs. They’re homogenous in color and have a tender, light texture. Scrambled eggs are often eaten alone or enjoyed alongside a slice or two of toast or bacon. 

2. Sunny-Side-Up 

If you like the smooth, naturally satisfying taste of egg yolk, you may enjoy sunny-side-up. They’re prepared by dropping eggs into a hot frying pan coated with a small amount of oil or butter. These eggs have a cooked bottom and a top that is partially cooked.

This classic take on eggs can be enjoyed over toast or even served on top of a steak. If you’re trying a sunny-side-up egg for the first time, order it with a piece of buttered, whole-wheat toast, and try dipping the bread into the egg. 

3. Hard-Boiled

Hard-boiled eggs are the ultimate portable snack, since they come in their own natural packaging. Made by boiling whole eggs in water, hard-boiled eggs are cooked until both the egg whites and the interior yolks are firm. These eggs can be enjoyed with simple salt and pepper for a quick breakfast or diced into Cobb salad for lunch or dinner.
