But what's happening today get a lot of questions for it the perfect fried egg in a cast-iron skillet
0:34
Now there's three things you're really going to need to create this perfect fried egg in a cast-iron skillet and speaking a cast-iron skillet
0:41
It has got to be well seasoned now We have created a cast-iron playlist and Shan will have you a link there to where you can go to it
0:48
And it'll help you with all your cast-iron problems to where you can get it to this point to make that perfect fried egg
0:54
So well-seasoned skillet and guess what else we're gonna need a dab of water and a little dab of butter
1:00
But also one of the most important factors What is it a lid because we're gonna need it cause to create this perfect Friday
1:08
The lids gonna be there the steaming effect is what's gonna help all right now
1:13
This is really pretty simple I left out an important factor on the three things you needed you're gonna need a fire too
1:18
So really I want to turn this if I can remember which knob is is and I got lucky
1:23
To medium heat now I gonna guess at a minute and a half because we got a pre this thing just a little because it just been sitting here I don want it smoking hot but I want you to go a minute and a half now
1:36
You're waiting on that minute and a half. What is this delectable ingredient here butter? Yes
1:42
About a tablespoon now you can go ahead and place it in there
1:46
Because I want to see it go to melting and after a minute and a half half we're gonna do one of them aerobic deals to this skillet you know what
1:54
that's gonna be we gonna give it to swirl this thing might get hot so I got
1:59
me one of these skillet litter handle deals and we got a link down there you
2:03
can find them but give it some swirling action big how do you like your eggs huh
2:08
over easy over medium sunny side up the big said don't make him no difference
2:14
just make sure you got one I can remember when I was cooking eggs out
2:17
There on a ranch and folks would always say we always just had scrambled eggs. We never had no fried eggs
2:23
Well, me and Shan we got to frying eggs. We're just like a cafe. How do you want them
2:27
We'd fry them now when you fry that many eggs at one time in an old skillet
2:31
You got to make sure you have what a proper Utensil to turn these and that is a spatula now you can see if Shan will jump in here that butter has melted
2:43
so let's take our One egg and a lot of you want to crack it right there on this skillet
2:49
Ha because what happens when you do that Some of it runs down the side see what was left there from this morning shin But also that egg shell falls in there it does Crack it on a flat surface
3:01
We hope that it is a real egg, not one of them Easter eggs, and it was
3:06
At this point, a very important part, remember? About a tablespoon of water
3:11
Go around the outside edge, the lid goes on. Turn it too low
3:18
Guess what? timer is started at a minute and a half that becomes what an egg sunny side up
3:27
fried but we're gonna go ahead and do a total cook time of about two and a half
3:31
minutes to have what that over easy egg that I have every morning the perfect
3:36
fried egg to me now some of you might be telling yourself whoa I like mine over
3:41
medium well at that two and a half minutes take that very important tool
3:44
that you have there a spatula and flip it cook it another 30 seconds without the lid you will have an
3:52
over medium egg so folks there's two three different ways you can get that out there you
3:56
can slide it out of there or you can just take that spatula push it over to the side and there you go
4:04
now i like my eggs just like this but guess what you know we got to have one that's got some what
4:12
salt and pepper. Then we gotta have us a fork and I want to bust this right here and look
4:18
at that That is just what I would call an over easy Now I take that thing and I just go ahead and just scramble it up just like this right here Give me like maybe a side of hash browns
4:31
Some of that good crispy fried up bacon. And what would you do
4:35
Bon appetit. Mmm. Makes me want to do the chicken dance again
