I dont eat yolks. I barely will even eat an egg.
But I remember my folks dipping the toast in coffee, and then dipping it into their egg yolks.
Kinda messy, but whatever floats your boat I guess.
Kinda like me dunking my oreo cookied in my iced tea.

You dip the MINT oreos in the ice tea...

I won't have eggs and pancakes on the same plate. Though I enjoy them both but not together.

This mornings breakfast was 3 dropped on top of home made baked beans, liver w/bacon and onions, and toasted brown bread. I did dunk the brown bread in the yolks. Chow Jim

Dunk eggs???

Why I just mix my two sunny side-up eggs into the hot buttered grits. I will sop any remnants up with toast, biscuit or sausage that I can’t get on the fork.

Yes! Grits to the rescue. None of that "sweet" stuff for me...




Everyone sees the eggs, right

Those too!

I take the toast, generously butter it, sprinkle with a bit of salt and a lot of black pepper, and then cut the toast into squares (around 1") ... then dunk the squares into the egg.

Jim,
Is this some kind of religious thing?? I mean I have heard of no dairy and meat, or No Coffee or no smoking. But this "eggs vs. pancakes" thing is new to me!

That's a darn fine lookin plate of grits & eggs.
Maybe two more egg and a little more butter, please.

Okay, I have to ask ..... what is a cathead biscuit?

Well, making them involves a trip to an animal shelter, a large cat, clippers, and. . . . Stop it, Rick! You're disgusting. Oops. My wife just walked past carrying one of our cats.

Al my sister is one of those who will not let food touch, she even has those school cafeteria trays to eat off of.

No food touching each other, I drive her nuts when we visit, I'll mix my eggs and grits and whatever else. or mix up anything mashed potate and corn or green beans just to get a rise out of her.

Rick,

My son asked the same thing about cathead biscuits, we had biscuits & gravy this morning and all through breakfast he would look at them and then me and then them again. he would turn or look out at the falling snow and I would go "meow"... (LMAO..... ok now serious face again) he picked at his plate then asked for some toast for his gravy.

So my wife informed me that we will not be calling biscuits "cathead biscuits" anymore

ADJ - that is a fine lookin plate of grits and eggs, now all we need is some toast and breakfast meat or some corned beef hash, and we will be set!

ok maybe a little more pepper for me.

ADJ--ditto to that great grits and eggs photo--just a tad more black pepper for me as well and go to town.

Al, Anytime I get up in the morning and able to eat breakfast it's a religous experiance. I just don't like syrup getting mixed up with my farm fresh eggs. Could never figure out that waffle and fried chicken thing either, but to each his own I guess. Chow Jim

I'm with you all the way. Professionally speaking (but with tongue partly in cheek), eating, actual or symbolic, is often a part of worship. And in this case, the hen made a sacrifice and a pig was a sacrifice for the occasion.

The chicken was involved; the pig was committed.

A friend of mine from West Virginia used to go so far as to put an over medium egg or two between syrup covered pancakes. It looked disgusting but I have to admit that I tried and it was pretty good.

I'm from West Virginia also & I eat my eggs and pancakes much in the same way. However, I like a egg with a runny yolk rather than a medium egg. I gently cut up the egg on top of the 1st buttered pancake, top with the second butered pancake, then add lots of either white Karo or my mom's homemade, warm brown sugar syrup. I grew up watching my dad eat his pancakes and eggs this way.

Also, if you are ever traveling through West Virginia, try Tudor's Biscuits. They will fix your egg how you want it on your bisucit. My favorite is a country ham biscuit wth an over easy egg with a runny yolk. Be prepared though, it can be very messy. By the way, forget the hashbrowns, not recommended.

rare to find religious commitment like that anymore - brings a tear to my eye - say grace and pass the pepper.

Things I dunk in my yolks:

All the common things: toast, english muffins, biscuits, bagels, bacon, sausage , grits, fried mush, scrapple, hash browns, home fries, rice.

Slightly more unusual: Fresh sliced tomatoes, fried and floured yellow squash and zucchini, country ham, meat based sandwiches, chicken fried steak. crackers(esp multigrain ones)


All time favorite: my fingertips........slurppppppp!

Years ago my girlfriend (Diana) would totally gross me out with her sunny side eggs...she would tear a slot in the yolk and fill with ketchup and dunk her buttered toast in the mess YUCK! I am boring lolzzz I just slice my eggs and eat with toast lolzzzz

My Fathers significant other does the same thing.....only she puts yellow mustard in her sunny side up yolks.

On another note in my home town of Lewistown, Pa. we call sunny side up or over easy eggs "dippy eggs", anyone else ever hear of eggs referred to as "dippy eggs"?

edmax---------I concur--this is undoubtedly the BEST way to have egg yolks!!!!!!!!

CajunKing, that is a great story about the cathead biscuits. It's the kind of thing I would do -- which explains why I am only an aunt and not a mother.

Porkbeaks, is that your own original quote about the chicken/involved, pig/committed? Because it is BRILLIANT. My kind of word humor.

No, it's not a "porkbeaks original"....I wish I could claim it as my own. I would have given a source, but it's just something I heard one time and it stuck with me. -pb

easy on top.
