3 minute, with sliced toast to dip in.
or over-easy, with toast to mop up.

Scrambled loosely.....I detest dry eggs!
Sunnyside up with crispy edges would be 2nd. :-)
mepolo at 9:11AM on 04/06/07
poached is first...with sunnyside up running a close 2nd.

Over medium.

Over medium, lightly scrambled or like my morning snack today an orange colored easter egg from my grandaughter dipped in sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

Poached or over easy with toasted, buttered sourdough.
AlexRaine at 9:48AM on 04/06/07
soft scrambled. mmm!
wickedlady at 9:50AM on 04/06/07
Basted Eggs which is how my mother makes"fried eggs"....I like to dip burnt toast in the yokes.

Extra-fluffy four-egg omelet with fresh tarragon.
ronfrankl at 10:28AM on 04/06/07
Poached eggs with a slice of my mom's homemade bread.
aisbrain at 10:28AM on 04/06/07
perfectly poached or over medium

scrambled very loosely or sunnyside up, served with a delicious meat—usually bacon, but I picked up some chorizo last night at Whole Foods so that's what's for lunch!
Lia Bulaong at 11:26AM on 04/06/07
Scrambled. I like the yoke, not really the white (especially the hard-boiled, jiggly version), so I prefer when the two are mixed. Poached works too, but I'm not a fan of sunnyside up.

Devilled and sprinkled with aleppo pepper.
Barbara Hanson at 11:54AM on 04/06/07
Sunny side up! with buttered whole wheat toast to soak up the runny yolk.

Preferrably in Benedict, second would be deviled, third is egg salad, and fourth would be over medium. :}

Fried for 30 seconds, then doused with Maggi, and flipped over just for a few seconds more to imbue the MSG-laden saltiness into the flesh. Yolk is runny and a quick pierce sends its yellow lava coursing into whatever you've placed the egg upon, be it yesterday's fried rice, stir-fried wheat noodles, or a plate.

Am I the only one who likes hard boiled? Or rather, am I the only one who somehow formed a distaste for scrambled eggs as a kid?
I think I grew up eating overcooked eggs and now that's the way I like them. [insert look of horror]
roboppy at 12:28PM on 04/06/07
Roboppy, I rang in with devilled, which starts with hard boiled.
I, too, grew up with overcooked eggs but now I like them runny!
Barbara Hanson at 12:57PM on 04/06/07
1)Sunny side up with truffle oil.
2) in a dandy egg cup, soft boiled
3) Baked with massive amounts of butter.
4) Huevos Rancheros.
5) I love eggs.

Poached, over-easy, deviled (with dijon mustard), or loose scramble please. Hate when scrambled eggs or omelets are dry and spongey. Ewww.
Mischiefdish at 1:11PM on 04/06/07
poached..
or sunny side up but only if I do it myself...
scrambled but only if it's done loosely and it's still soft and eggy
cafekiss at 2:18PM on 04/06/07
over medium or soft boiled
spaghetti at 2:47PM on 04/06/07
usually, as a fluffy omelet. otherwise, as a salt-pickled, hard-boiled egg
femmebot at 4:53PM on 04/06/07
while we are wishing: cheese souffle.

Very soft runny poached eggs

Any way. I eat hard-boiled egg(s) every day as part of breakfast. I love scrambled, over-easy, poached, really any way. I love fried egg sandwiches on squishy white bread with a slice of white American.
My favorite eggs are from my uncle's chickens. My aunt cooks some bacon from their pigs and then fries the eggs in the leftover grease. She bastes them with it. I'd love it every morning but alas will settle for when I visit their farm in Vermont.

Coddled in cream and herbs

After watching the Gordon Ramsay video, I want my eggs just like that.
sippey at 1:56AM on 04/07/07
This morning it was over easy with a slice of cheese on top, served atop a slice of Canadian bacon and sandwiched between the halves of an English muffin. With plenty of hot sauce. Usually I go scrambled or poached but I had a hankering for an egg sandwich.
Anybody else here do scrambled eggs and hot dogs?
Hungover Gourmet at 11:10AM on 04/07/07
scrambled, on top of a piece of buttered wheat toast. and a slice of tomato on top with salt & pepper.
Bananapants at 4:39PM on 04/07/07
over-easy; scrambled but only if it's done loosely and it's still soft and but just lost its egginess; omelet with 'shrooms and smoked salmon
all with toast!
tgchi at 8:56PM on 04/07/07
scrambled wth spinach and feta cheese, shallot salt and a grind of pepper.

Poached, atop a crispy toasted lightly buttered thick English muffin. Hungover Gourmet: When I was in college, in Boston in the 1970s, after a hard night of partying, a bunch of us would feast at Ken's in Copley Square. I ate scrambled eggs and hot dogs there on more than one occasion. Thanks for the memory!
baboo at 3:27PM on 04/08/07
Another vote for poached.
Myszka at 6:32PM on 04/08/07
1) 4-minute
2) sunny-side up
3) poached
4) or any other way, as long as the yolk is runny and the white is done.
tantetrijn at 7:21AM on 04/09/07
Scrambled hard...or if it's an omlette, add a lil' water to make them fluffy :)
N2ink78 at 10:51AM on 04/09/07
over medium because only true elitists order eggs over medium
