I like scrambled eggs to omelette. Less fried surface I guess.

Edit: shoulda said “same ingredients only” but I suppose this was clear enough.

    I’ve never made an omelette that didn’t have more ingredients in it than that. (At least green onions, but frequently ham and cheese, bell peppers, spinach, etc etc.)

    So I guess I’d go scrambled. But if I’m just using salt with the eggs then probably sunny-side up so I can dip toast in the runny yolk.

  • If I’m not going to add anything to it, I usually do scrambled.

    But if I want cheese and othet stuff, I make an omelette.

    If I am feeling brave enough I will do over easy to dip toast into; but I end up breaking the yolk more than half the time so it kinda kills what I wanted them for. 😮‍💨

    I change up day to day. Today was over easy. The other day was scrambled. Before that was an omelette.

    If I’m forced to pick, just eggs, it would be scrambled. But omelettes allow lots of things to be added, so they win for that category.

      Yeah agreed! Where’s the milk and butter and maybe some fresh dill?

      Also I have strong opinions about trifold being better than just slopping that thing in half like a barbarian.

        Butter yes, any herbs you like, but milk makes mine watery and rubbery. Maybe a splash of water to thin them out if I want an omelette, but none if I’m making scrambled.

            Better crust? It’s way too thick, and doesn’t contain the fillings. The thin, crêpe-like trifold preserves a better ratio, and one that’s9re consistent throughout the omelet.

              You say thick, I say chonky, that’s why it is American style. I don’t mind if it is messy or uneven as long as it is packed with flavor. Your omelet sounds good too though, I would eat it.

    If I’m adding nothing? Then I guess scrambled eggs. But they seem like a similar amount of work, other than I’m not tossing the scrambled eggs in the air to cook the other side.

    I like scrambled eggs to omelette.

    You probably want “I prefer scrambled eggs to omelette”.

    Scrambled eggs if I’m making it. Slightly less effort. If someone else is, I guess maybe omelette. Not really a strong preference.

    Eggs over medium (lightly fried on both sides, white fully set, yolk very runny once punctured). Runny eggs are great by themselves or with other breakfast items, particularly toast or hash browns to soak up the sauce.

      That’s over easy, medium is when the yolk starts to set but not fully. My fave is over medium.

      Between scrambled and omelette I’m going scrambled.

    I love scrambled eggs, I use butter instead of oil and I use Vegeta instead of salt. At least to me Vegeta gives kinda sweet taste, not too sweet it is tasty.
