I usually just scramble his. +1 for Hubby! :-D In my limited social sphere, I don't know anyone else who likes them that way. I really don't know why -- I'm certainly not a picky eater -- but I've never been able to eat eggs that weren't cooked solid as flat little rocks, so I generally scramble them, too. It just now occurs to me that, though I eat a lot of eggs, it wouldn't break my heart if I never saw another one, and maybe that's because I incinerate them. :-D |

I cook 3, one is hardboiled and kept in the fridge for my night time snack I was amazed to see something on an American website the other day - a plastic bag full of pre shelled hard-boiled eggs.

But 2 seconds in a microwave sorts that out. I am more disappointed when my egg is a bit too hard. |

Even when nothing else sounds good, eggs always do. I usually poach mine for 5 min. which makes the whites done, but the yolk still a bit runny, then slice through them mixing with a tsp of butter, salt and pepper, and a TBS of flax seeds. Mmmmmm. :-) Cheri |

I had a boyfriend who did that. He was a weight lifter. Made some kind of gak in the blender that used raw eggs. He also thought that hard boiled eggs could be kept at room temp. He would go off on 3 day hikes with a friend and would take a dozen hard boiled eggs to eat. AFAIK he is still alive. |

And I am pretty sure she will outgrow the pear thing very quickly. Once in a while she will ask for pears. And then a year or so will go by before she wants them again. Pears don't spike me. Not that I eat them often because I don't. But when our trees were producing I would. |

runny whites is way slimey the white once done is fine, and anything from

"Storrmmee" > wrote in message ... > you better start buying jars and canning supplies now, pear > > you better start buying canning supplies now, pears and apples trees are > famous for over producing the year after a good shearing, Lee"Julie Bove" Really? Interesting. I have plenty of jars and rings. I think I got rid of the tops because those can go bad when they are old. The only problem is, nobody much wants to eat what I've canned. My parents are afraid to eat home canned foods. They think they will get botulism. I don't think my brother and his family eat apples or pears. Angela loves them but only wants to eat the stuff from the store with the pretty pictures on them. I just tossed out the last of the pears and a couple of jars of papplesauce. That year we didn't get many apples but tons of pears. |

well i am a couple of years older than you and i survived growing up with a
canning familhy, the stuff is good for years and years, as long as the seal is good, and you of course check when you open, trust me when i say if you open you can pretty well tell when its bad, also if you have enough freezer space, you can make up apple or pears like you were going to make a pie, put in the piepan and freeze, then pop into a bag for cooking later, when you want it pop out and into pan again to heat, works with or without crust, Lee "Julie Bove" > wrote in message ... > > "Storrmmee" > wrote in message > ... >> you better start buying jars and canning supplies now, pear >> >> you better start buying canning supplies now, pears and apples trees are >> famous for over producing the year after a good shearing, Lee"Julie Bove" > > Really?

i am not an expert nor am i giving advice, i am only relating my family
habits... raw eggs for example are generally kept at a coolish room temp if fresh and do fine, once frigged though should be kept that way for taste purposes, Lee "Julie Bove" > wrote in message ... > > "Storrmmee" > wrote in message > ... >> you can, and i do keep hard boiled eggs at room temp it never hurt >> anybody in my family, Lee > > I don't know about that.

They still won't eat home canned food. My dad has a lot of phobias when it comes to food. I wouldn't waste freezer space on fruit like that. We just don't like it that much. |

Raw eggs need to be kept refrigerated too. |

We had egg flips as kids. Put raw eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla essence and blend til smooth. You can taste the egg but we got used to it. |

I had a knock on the door this arvo and opened it to find a man leaning up the stairs holding onto the rail and head down. In what I call a getting rid of a fur ball position, lol. He was dressed in khaki shorts, flannelette, chequered shirt, work boots and a hat you would call a stetson. He looked at me and didn't speak at first so I said "yes?". To that he started to "drawl" like some country people here tend to do. He had a whole apple in his hand and a half eaten one and eventually said, very slowly, that he was from Stanthorpe and up here for the day in his truck trying to sell his wonderful apples. I don't keep cash and I have plenty of apples anyway and had to decline but it was a weird experience. I know the floods and cyclone have done a big number on crops up here in QLD and I admired his initiative. Wondering if he got to sell anyway. When I declined he just said "ok, well I'll see ya next year then". lol |

sorry if you haven't ever raised chickens you can't undersand this, but once
frigged there is a serious degradation of flavor and yolk color, do what suits you, Lee "Julie Bove" > wrote in message ... > > "Storrmmee" > wrote in message > ... >>i am not an expert nor am i giving advice, i am only relating my family >>habits... raw eggs for example are generally kept at a coolish room temp >>if fresh and do fine, once frigged though should be kept that way for >>taste purposes, Lee > > Nope.

i don't think unless tit is hidiously hot its a safety issue, i was speaking
of flavor degradation, i come from a family that has raised eggs on and off, when laid the first egg in a clutch is out for a long time,... there is a lot more scarey stuff about eggs than is real to my experience... but i advise people to do what is best for their family...

I do hate runny whites in eggs. Hubby >will only eat fried eggs if the yolk and the whites are completely hard >cooked. I usually just scramble his. +1 for Hubby! :-D In my limited social sphere, I don't know anyone else who likes them that way. I really don't know why -- I'm certainly not a picky eater -- but I've never been able to eat eggs that weren't cooked solid as flat little rocks, so I generally scramble them, too. It just now occurs to me that, though I eat a lot of eggs, it wouldn't break my heart if I never saw another one, and maybe that's because I incinerate them. :-D |
