About "Two Eggs Over Easy"
'Two Eggs Over Easy' is a common breakfast order referring to a
specific method of preparing eggs where they are fried and then flipped briefly, leaving the yolk runny
but with a thin film of cooked white on top. According to the Culinary Institute of America, this cooking
technique requires skill to maintain the perfect consistency of the yolk while ensuring the white is
properly cooked. The American Egg Board documents various egg preparation methods, noting that 'over easy'
is among the most popular breakfast styles in American cuisine. This cooking method represents the
intersection of culinary technique and customer preference, reflecting the precision required in
professional cooking and the specific language used in restaurant communication. Sources: Culinary
