the only time I really enjoy eggs is when I make a Spanish tortilla.
the rest of the time I do not like the taste or the smell of it.

I am not sure what double fried, coddled, deviled or benedict eggs are.

I am not sure what double fried, coddled, deviled or benedict eggs are.
Benedict is poached egg on a bed of hollandaise sauce and bread or toast.
I do not know the rest either. deviled sounds spicy with tomatoes to me but I really don't know haha :)

I assumed double fried just meant fried... (I picked that and omelette)

I didn't realise I could pick more than one. In that case, I would also have picked omelette, scrambled, sunny-side up, poached, and hard boiled in addition to the soft boiled that I did vote for. I expect I would have voted for double fried, coddled, deviled and benedict too, once I knew for sure what they were.

I imagine double-fried would be equivalent to "turned over" as we would say here. That is an egg that has been fried both on the top and the bottom without breaking the yolk.
Eggs benedict is a weakness for me when I go out for brunch, and this thread reminds me that I haven't had any in a long time.
Just fyi a deviled egg is a hard boiled egg that has been cut in half and the yolk scooped out. The yolk is then mixed with spices and other ingredients then placed back inside one half of the egg-white. It's usually served at parties or social events as an appetizer.

I picked double fried. My favourite way to eat eggs though is you put eggs, rice, salsa, mushrooms, onions and hot spices into a frying pan and mix them all together. Delicious.

So if double-fried is different to fried, why isn't fried on the list! The greatest egg of all time!!!! Goes great with some fried bacon, tomato and toast.

A brie omlette is one of my favourite lunch dishes... a real shame it isn't all that healthy...
...ooh, does baking count? There's usually at least one egg in most of the cakes and biscuits that rattle out of my kitchen!

Girls always liked my eggs, but I like eggs over easy on a bed of steamed rice with butter and parmesan cheese.

I like my eggs to be sure of their raison d'etre.
I also like them fried, poached and in omelettes. I don't dislike them done the other ways either.

I love eggs, but I can't stand runny yolk - it makes me gag, so sunny side up, coddled, soft boiled are all out.

I mostly like them fried. I also like soft boiled eggs especially for my breakfast.

I love eggs whichever way they're done but my current favourite is crumpegg form. Toast 2 crumpets then spread with butter. Lightly fry the yolks of two eggs. Place the egg yolks on top of your crumpets and squish in so the lovely runny yolks drizzle down into the crumpet holes. Slight sprinkling of salt. Chomp. Gorgeous.

I am actually drinking them raw a bit these days, I need vitamin B12 and eggs are one of the best sources except meat. But cooked I like them almost any way you can think of except as an omelette, I get sick if I eat more than one or two eggs.
How about French Toast? Slices of bread coated in whisked egg and done in the frying pan. A savoury lunch dish. Good with tomato sauce.

I thought french toast was where you butter the bread before putting it in the toaster.

Hello guys I am relatively new to this site and this seems like a good enough topic for a first comment ever. So let all browsers here know that the Adamite likes his eggs thus:
cut a piece of butter and throw in it the pan like you don't give a damn, then stuff some shredded bread, then sprinkle cheddar cheese then wait for it to look a little disturbing for the sight and add the egg (Do Not Mix). Add a little olive oil and sprinkle a little coffee followed by hot-sauce and chilli pepper. And there you have a most ugly yet tasty breakfast for when you can't be bothered to view the world artistically.

I actually don't care for eggs. It's a consistency thing. If forced, hard boiled and that is the only way.

I love sunny side up eggs.
I eat them with grape jelly or marmalade.

What kind of coffee? Do you mean brewed coffee? Or scoops from the can before brewing? Will instant coffee work? How about just throwing in one or two of those coffee singles coffee bags?

That made me laugh. When I'm feeling reeeally naughty (health wise), I like egg, mushroom, swiss cheese, and shallot quiche (i won't mention the added butter, milk, and pie crust)
