Hahah, yeah, don’t know, just how I was raised I guess. My fridge came with one of those egg racks and I like having them out the box ready-to-go, plus it doesn’t harm them and they should stay fresher for marginally longer.
Edit: Also probably helps my heat gradient on those perfect runny yolks but set whites!
Haha, yeah totally get that! Also, how did I forget poached!! Okay, those tie over-easy for me
Lol, 60g healthy european chonkers, straight from the fridge into boiling water, then ice bath right after (if more than 2-3 eggs i’ll go a tad shorter because of post-cook thermal load)
Whites firm and yolks perfectly runny, sliced in two with maldon salt to top. Perfection in two bites.
Don’t discriminate based on entropy level, but each level has a best in class:
Low: Soft boiled (8:30 sec)
Medium: Over easy
High: Propper fluffy scramble (10% butter, constant whisk)
100% better to know out of the gate if they’re going to judge or have an opinion. Most react really well and if you sprinkle in some humour it’s a good opportunity for some honest bonding.
That kind off decision really should come from the gameplay mechanics you want to incorporate. I’d say the only reason to pick now would be to limit scope and stick with your comfort zone. I’d encourage you to not decide right now, but try to make the roughest prototypes you can of each, trying to establish the base of your gameplay loop in each “orientation” and then compare the two and see which has the feel you want to go for
