The Ever-Versatile EGG

Making eggs can be as simple or as complicated as the person cooking the dish wants it to be, and often the simple recipes can be as involved as the more complex recipes.

So let’s take it back to the basics. Would you like to know how to perfect your poached eggs recipe? Or perhaps you want to serve up a beautifully baked egg and just aren’t sure how to do it.

Whether you’re a novice cook or you have years of experience, these basic recipes, courtesy of the American Egg Board, may hold the answers to your questions.

Learn how to poach an egg, scramble a couple of eggs in the oven, or hard-boil an egg without that ugly green tint. You can take your recipes back to the beginning and either relearn a complicated technique or take a bit of time to go over the basics and perfect a well-worn, well-loved, and well-learned method of cooking one of nature’s most complete foods: the egg.
