What is the easiest way to do it (besides buying egg beaters?).

I prefer to use my fingers. Doing in the shell works too, but sometimes the sharp shell edge breaks the yolk.

I use the shell method

If you crack the egg with a knife it makes for a nice straight line in the shell and you won't have to worry about the shell breaking the yoke when you pour it out of the shell :yay:

They make a special kind of spoon for it that looks like it should do the trick, but I've never used it.

I was taught to do it as a child and have had a lot of practice, so I can't say that my way it the easiest way, but...

Gently crack the egg over a clean bowl. Turn the egg on one end and take off the "top." Most of the white will gush out at this point, so make sure you have it over the bowl and have it tilted slightly to one side so that you don't get too much of it on your hand. Very gently pour the egg yolk back and forth between the two shell halves, being careful not to catch the yolk on the jagged edges and keeping the egg over the bowl. The white will separate out and drip into the bowl. Continue this until all the white is in the bowl. If you should happen to break the yolk, immediately stop the process and pour the yolk into a separate bowl from white.

It's ok for most recipes calling for yolk only to have a little bit of white, so if you got most of the white off before breaking the yolk, you should be fine. It is NOT ok for recipes calling for whites only to have a little yolk in them, so make sure if you break the yolk, you immediately stop trying to separate the white out because the yolk will get mixed in.

Buy an egg separator.

Crack eggs on side of bowl, pour yolk from one side of shell to the other, letting the white fall into bowl. Easy peasy. :shrug:

Call BadGirl and have her order you an Egg Seperator.. they're WICKED cool..

Looks lika pyramid shaped coiled spring on the end of a spoon..

Or punch a hole in both ends of the egg and BLOW!! After a hundred eggs or so you should be able to remove JUST the whites..

Yeah...

Like that...

... Easy peasy...

Sounds like the separator is the easiest way (other than egg beaters). Thanks all! I'm going to miss eggs over easy and sopping up the yolk with toast, but I will not miss these lbs.

You racist! All eggs are created equal and should not be segrated! :howdy:

Why not just get the egg beater whites? That's what I do. :shrug:

I thought you were making merengue.

Wifey already purchased a dozen fresh eggs so I gotta use them up first. Next time I'll do that though. What I need to do is try remember to eat breakfast everyday, hard to do with my schedule.

She found some burgers for me to try, black bean and chipotle (veggie) burgers. I'll give a review after this weekend, I may throw one on the grill.

I'm trying to get rid of the merengue thats around my waist.

THOSE are absolutely great!

A tip: try not to think of those as "burgers" - they're not even close. If you think of it as just a different type of bun filler, a veggie patty instead of a burger, you'll like it better.

If he was, he'd be losing weight. :rolleyes:

Use brown eggs....:shrug:

:yeahthat: I agree that they don't really taste like a burger but I like them A LOT. The regular ol' Morningstar veggie burger on a piece of wheat toast with a little mayo and some season salt, delish!

:lol:

I have to agree with you on that. :yay:

Check your PM, Kom. :yay:

Yeah, I liked them once I got over thinking of them as a beef burger substitute.

are they packaged in a sleeveless t-shirt?

Of course - totally authentic. :yay:

I bet they'd be good as a HOT sandwich..

Smothered in Beef Gravy on toast..

I saw Elton Brown use a slotted plastic spoon. Seemed to work fine but I haven't tried it.

BSG just gives them "the look" and they separate themselves.
