With milk it's an omlette. Without milk it's switched eggs. |

So your points re: fried eggs, poached eggs, frying pans and pots are all null and void. | uh huh, so a fried egg and a poached egg ARE the same thing, except the cooking method is different. so that means that an omelette, a fried egg and a poached egg are the same too. and so is scrambled egg, until/unless you add milk.
oh my god, i just realised ALL THINGS MADE FROM EGG ARE THE SAME THING! i have been lied to all my life!!!

3. Lemon curd = amazing

oh my god, i just realised ALL THINGS MADE FROM EGG ARE THE SAME THING! i have been lied to all my life!!! | Still not got it? Okay, here are the definitions. Scrambled eggs is a dish made from beaten whites and yolks of eggs. The dish often contains other ingredients. Cream, butter, milk or oil (used in China) will dilute the egg proteins to create a softer texture. An omelette or omelet is a preparation of beaten egg cooked with butter or oil in a frying pan, usually folded around a filling such as cheese, and/or mushrooms. A Poached egg is an egg that has been cooked by poaching. No oil or fat is used in their preparation and so they are healthier than other methods.
A fried egg is an egg (usually that of a chicken) cooked by frying, typically in bacon fat, butter, cooking oil or margarine, for the purpose of eating. The term "Fried Eggs" usually refers to eggs prepared so that the yolk is not broken; thus scrambled eggs, while technically fried, are rarely referred to as such.

Way to go, Fenn. | |

But the different ways you cook them, do different things to them.

Way to go, Fenn. | oh i didnt read any links. and i know scrambled egg is with milk and an omelette is without 'officially', BUT if i make an omelette WITH MILK (dun dun duuuunnnnn) its still an omelette BECAUSE OF THE WAY ITS COOKED! y'see? it isnt scrambled egg because its not scrambled. Quote:

But the different ways you cook them, do different things to them. | seriously? no fucking way. i never knew that! Stew is arguing over ingredients, I am arguing that it is not so much the added ingredients BUT the cooking method which defines what type of egg you are consuming
