Why do eggs pop when frying

There is more moisture in the white of a fresh egg since as the egg ages the yolk absorbs moisture from the white but I've never had them pop when cooking them. I think Mahonri is right, an adjustment in temperature will probably take care of the problem.

They will be thicker for two reasons. The less storage time the less time the enzymes in the egg break down the whites. Thanks for the advice, I do tend to turn the heat up a bit much, I like my butter slightly browned, I'll try lower heat. Jan 5, 27 SE Connecticut. When I do eggs, I add butter to the pan on medium heat and then turn it way down to low when I put the eggs in. I, and those in my family, don't like crusty edges on our eggs and this eliminates that. I roll the edges up over the whites and cook away.

It does take a bit longer, especially for mine that I like over-hard but it's so worth it. Jun 18, 1, 41 East Tennessee. Quote: Fart eggs? May 3, 0 Texas Hill Country. Post reply. Insert quotes….

Have you ever melted butter in a pan and then added your eggs, and instead of producing a big satisfying sizzle when they hit the pan, the eggs just sat there in a pool? That means your pan wasn't hot enough.

Hot enough to melt the butter, yes, but not hot enough to cook the eggs. That's no good. The reason you add butter is to lubricate the pan, so your eggs don't stick. If the butter doesn't get between the eggs and the pan, it won't be able to do its job properly.

That's what happens if the pan and thus the butter isn't hot enough when you add the eggs. The Right Way: Heat your pan until the butter is foamy and a drop of water sizzles on it. Eggs are like glue. You can actually use eggs as glue to seal pie crusts, empanadas, and other pastries. So it's not a surprise that eggs will stick to the bottom of your pan. While the egg cooks, its proteins are forming chemical bonds with the metal of the pan.

A nonstick coating interferes with this bonding, and so does adding fat like oil or butter to the pan before the eggs. The layer of fat gets between the pan and the eggs and prevents the proteins from sticking. You can cook eggs in any kind of pan—even a cast-iron skillet, but you need to make sure you have oil in it and keep the eggs moving so that a bond never gets a chance to form.

For the rest of us, a nonstick pan is best. An 8-inch omelet pan is the right size for cooking two eggs, and it's shaped so the eggs will slide around and flip like a circus acrobat. The Right Way: Cook your eggs in a nonstick pan. As an egg ages, it slumps. It slackens. It loses its firmness. A fresh egg is perky. Its yolk stands up straight and points skyward. The white is tight and compact. All these qualities make fresh eggs highly desirable for poaching and griddling.

Try cracking your egg against a flat surface before opening the shell over a bowl, that usually works for us. Flickr: freddie boy. A runny yolk is one of the singular joys of a fried egg. If you hate runny yolks, go ahead and break them with reckless abandon. For the rest of you, there is a simple trick to avoid this breakfast bummer: don't drop your egg into the pan from a great height. Slide it into the pan either from its shell or the ramekin you delicately cracked it into from just above the cooking surface.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy cowboy. If your eggs puff up into little clouds and get brown and crispy around the edges, your pan is too hot. Cooking an egg over medium heat will keep the whites tender, the yolk runny and make weird crispy bits a thing of the past.

If you're worried about your whites setting, just cover the pan for a minute or two. Once ends have browned, remove from pan. Sprinkle with thick sea salt and freshly ground pepper. If you fry the whole egg especially if you overcooked the eggs in the first place then you can sometimes end up with a very rubbery outside that has an unpleasant texture. The best method is to fry two sides of the egg and leave it at that. This pasta is called duros. What makes this type of pasta unique is that it puffs up when you cook it.

This copycat cinnamon twist recipe is made by deep-frying the spiral-shaped pasta in vegetable oil at degrees. The pasta will puff up in about 15 seconds while being cooked. A fried egg contains the same amount of protein as an egg cooked scrambled, boiled, done over-easy or eaten raw stirred into in a glass of tomato juice.
