superbike999 ,Best fried eggs I've ever tasted. I need to practice more to stop breaking the yolk when I crack them11y
jhall23 ,Best eggs I have ever had and beautiful too. I could never get the whites of the egg to stay thick and white. And using butter not cooking spray made them taste just amazing. There was not one bit left over on anyone's plate.12y
daddyblues ,It's hard to believe that you'd need a recipe for a fried egg but I have to say - the recipe did make some dammed fine eggs! I mean to say, this recipe won't replace my quick everyday - crack eggs into lots of hot bacon grease, use a spatula to baste top of eggs with hot bacon grease and serve - recipe. But for special occasions when I want impress - this is the go to recipe from now on - no doubt!12y
