Morning Love with the Humble Egg
There is something about a boiled egg in an egg cup. It’s consistent. With all of the modern conveniences and changing methods in cooking, the boiled egg remains that simplest of all morning egg dishes. Easter has these perfect ovals decorated and painted in beautiful pastels, but when Easter is gone and forgotten, I appreciate a colorful egg cup to bring morning cheer.
I enjoy an egg medium-soft so that a nice piece of toast may be dipped in it.
My perfect morning egg :
Bring water to a boil.
Place egg gently in pot with a big spoon.
Boil 4 minutes and 40 seconds.
Toast a slice of dense bread, something good and heavy.
Butter the toast and cut in 3 strips for dunking in the top of the cut egg.

I love your blog. Reading it makes my mouth water and stomach gnaw at my backbone. I’m in need of potluck style meat dishes that wow. Do you know of any that you could pass along? I have taken Ground Nut Stew, an African dish, Butter Chicken, Sheperd’s Pie. Next I’m taking a pork pie dish called Farmer’s Pot Pie made with apples. Even though these dishes are well liked I get bored of making the same ones but still want the wow factor. If i’m going to cook, I want the dish to be one people enjoy eating, especially to the last mouthful.
