    Crispy fried egg problem

    ..again you're not reading all the posts. I didn't know until JUST EARLIER TODAY having cooked eggs on this pan. As I already said MANY times I've tried all those different methods. Last one was a different pan having realised after trying many other ways, that it's the pan and not my method...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Wrong. As I showed, other people with greenpans have the exact same issue and they're not even aware of it as seen in that video I linked to and many others. Did you miss the bit where I state I've had this pan for years and I've tried many different methods of frying eggs in it? I've tried...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I cooked them in a cheap non stick pan with lots of carbonised oil on it today. Had NO issues cooking them on it. Same gas cooker, same oil, same brand of eggs. It's the pan. I've taken photos but won't let me upload from my phone. Will upload later.

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Read what I wrote. Didn't have this problem with a new tefal pan. And I've experimented with different fats, temps etc using this greenpan, and everytime it's the same result. You clearly haven't read this thread. It's not just the edges. It's the pan

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Sarcasm? I used to have a cheap brand new tefal. I could cook eggs on it without or with oil. Either way this would never happen on the tefal. If it is user error, please tell me what this guy did wrong in the video. Search for on YouTube 'greenpan eggs' and you'll see everyone that fries...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I think it's a greenpan issue. In this video, the same thing happens to this person with the same companies pan. Not the exact same model though https://youtu.be/bnyAa8NkJrg

    It won't let me edit my last post. So I wanted to add, the info that lady gives about egg dates and laid date are only correct for USA. NOT for the UK.

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Thank you so much. She has a very soothing voice unlike most obnoxiously loud 'YouTuber's' these days. Even foodtuber's are adopting the 'let's be loud and obnoxious so it seems whatever I say is 100% true'. However. She uses an insane amount of fat. Utterly insane. I think she might be trying...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I do crack one egg at a time into a small bowl prior to putting it into the pan and inspect for shell. Your tip is to use a tissue to spread oil thinly and evenly across the pan. Won't lots of oil go to waste this way as the tissue would suck it up? I will try this method. Currently my eggs...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    You clearly didn't read my post. I stated many times in a few of my posts that I am using THE LOWEST POSSIBLE HEAT SETTING albeit with the largest burner as that is the burner that matches my pan size. Why are you talking about Teflon coatings? I use a GREENPAN. Look that manufacturer up and go...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    No. Only if it's NOT non stick. Again. No. I don't. This only applies to STAINLESS STEEL PANS. I know of this method used to tell when a pan is the right temp. HOWEVER once again, there is no way to regulate the temp of the pan DURING cooking. NO ONE has ANY idea as to the temp of the pan...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I already know this unless you wrote this for the other person that told me I need to get a new pan. Looks like there are even less knowledgeable people on here then myself 'giving advice'. I have done a lot of research into cookware recently. From what I read, some people are choosing not to...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Non stick pans should not be preheated. Clearly states so in the instructions of the manual for the pan. You CAN kind of 'preheat' by adding oil. Which is what I do. There is no way to know the temperature of the oil nor do I know the ideal temperature required for the eggs for the second they...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Thanks, but I want to learn how to cook them myself so that no matter where I am I can cook them. That looks like it would make life easier and likely would be healthy and fast vs fried eggs. I might but that, BUT I still want to learn how to cook. Thanks

    Crispy fried egg problem

    4 eggs at once due to that being the only pan I have - the other one is crap as you can see. Other pans in the house are cheap garbage covered in carbonised oil. Due to my pan size cooking one egg at a time would damage the pan in the areas that have no food on them. Those areas would overheat...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    WAIT Whaaaat. This guy who apparently works for McDonalds and filmed a video of him making eggs at supposedly McDonalds has the same crispy egg issue BUT he can separate them with ease using the thing he has: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTYk69JuyyQ He also does seem to apply some kinda fat I...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I've noticed that sometimes the eggs don't spread out and hold a classic fried egg shape. I reckon it's when they are fresh. What about when people cook on things like a griddle (I googled what that thing is that I wrote about in the post I posted before this one - griddle I think is what it's...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGB4eDT6TrE - That is a video of McDonalds cooking ONLY eggs. JUMP TO 0:19 and watch from there - They have some special cover with a hole in which they pour water. WTF?! BUT you can see before they do that, they are already cooking the eggs o that surface...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Also note. Two different properties with 2 different kitchens and gas cookers. Yet the same issue on both with the greenpan as you can see. It's water that I used to test the pans BTW in the photos

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Photos comparing with another pan someone in the house uses to cook eggs with. The smaller crap pan. She uses butter in that pan. Never olive oil and her eggs come out fine. She's able to flip it without issue, without the underside becoming over cooked and plasticy/crispy.

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Wonder how McDonald's make them? When I've bought the egg McMuffin, the eggs have always been perfectly circular and thick. Not thin crispy yucky. Not even the slightest bit crispy or plasticy (plasticy is a more accurate way to describe how the skin under my eggs you see in the photos I've...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    Interesting. You think it's an olive oil related issue? Oliver and Gordon LOVE using olive oil on everything. I've also suspected it is because of the olive oil. Gordon and Jaime use butter on YouTube when cooking eggs....

    Crispy fried egg problem

    It's a hardly used, bought new pan. Could it really be warped? I'll try with other pans to see if the issue is present on other pans. Think I already tried it and it was. But I'll try again. I tried to balance it by placing aluminium foil folded up under the burner holder metal thing that...

    Crispy fried egg problem

    I'm a guy.... I like my fried eggs cooked. No runny yolks Don't know what this over easy stuff is about.... It's on the lowest possible heat on the larger burner. There are 4 burners. 2 are small. 2 are large/r. Have to cook for a long time to get the top cooked enough that I can flip. As I...
