yup, brown the garlic in olive oil and then dump the egg in. removing the garlic bits before the eggs is optional (i leave it in). i like my garlic and my salt separately

i use either kosher or sea salt, but really that doesnt mean much. the garlic will give it super awesomo flavor

Today I tried the hot sauce. I used leftover bacon grease, olive oil, and minced onions to fry the eggs, then added salt, pepper, and hot sauce. I slit open the yolk and added a drop or two, then added a few drops to the white of the second egg just to see how it would turn out. I was very surprised - it added flavor but not heat! Cooking it in with the egg rather than drizzling it on top afterwards really took out the hotness and just left the flavor. Very nice! I would definitely try this again. I still haven't found the flavor I'm looking for, but I'll add hot sauce to my common ingredients list :)

Also, I've found that olive oil really gives it that nice cooked look, versus using butter or pam.

Cook yer eggs in Italian dressing.


Edit: I was joking about that, but cook it in italian dressing and make a sandwich out of it... might taste good. You'll have to try it. I might later.

SUCCESS!! The secret ingredient is Kosher Salt. Very, very flavorful salt. Also, the spices cook out during cooking, so add the salt (and pepper) after you're done cooking the eggs.

Yay :D

Take said eggs raw and mix into a small bowl

Cut Spam into slices

Fry Spam.

Dip spam into eggs for a moment

Eat with Egg still dripping

IMO best way to eat an egg.

If in a hurry, use salsa. It makes even egg whites cooked with a tiny amount of oil taste awesome.
