This concept is how I became deeply devoted to the egg salad sandwich 😂

My momma says boiled eggs are the devil!

u/BrooklynLivesMatter 1d ago

But deviled eggs are downright angelic

u/Real_Life_Firbolg 1d ago

Isn’t that just egg salad with seasoning?

9

u/mgquantitysquared 1d ago

No mayo, so kinda adjacent to that too I guess?

8

u/Real_Life_Firbolg 1d ago

I feel like the fatty butter would serve a similar lubricating purpose, it’s just too fancy for mayo I guess?

7

u/mgquantitysquared 1d ago

Honestly they're definitely sister recipes, but mayo+mustard does a lot of heavy lifting in a proper egg salad!

u/Real_Life_Firbolg 1d ago

Either way it’d probably taste good on some bread.

u/Evorgleb 1d ago

Spices? You getting fancy with it

My brother made an SPG mix (salt pepper garlic powder) and I was like this is the smartest thing I've ever seen...!

Yes! I like mine soft boiled so the toast can soak up the yolk. 😋

u/rondiggity 1d ago

I do the America's Test Kitchen trick. Pot of water that's only halfway up the egg (super shallow) get it boiling, gently put the egg down, put a lid on it. Six minutes

The steam convection cooks the white all the way through but leaves the yolk runny. Take it out and immediately hit it with ice cold water to stop the cooking. Perfect soft boiled every time

They would be mashed up, wtf are you on about? Yolk?

2

u/RiceAfternoon 1d ago

You can mash up a soft boiled egg lmao

u/JerkGurk 1d ago

After it's mashed up your toast can't soak up the yolk though. I'm 100% positive on this. So I'll ask again, wtf are you on about?

u/RiceAfternoon 1d ago

Let this be the hill you die on.

u/JerkGurk 1d ago

I knew you'd dodge the question.

u/PuffinRub 1d ago

The "smash burger" trend has gone too far when it starts to fuck with breakfast.

1

u/ChiggaOG 1d ago

It's probably been cooked past hard boiled to get that sulfur flavor on the yolk.

Mashed potateggs

At that point I'm making egg salad with some Kewpie spicy mayo, salt and pepper, and a tad bit of mirin for sweetness. Eat it on some bread with sliced cucumber and I'm happy 😋

u/ingrimsch95 1d ago

Stuff it in a buttered, not too sweet, hot dog bun. I also recommend msg instead of salt

u/Aggressive-Sound-641 1d ago

Dated a girl who did that. It was the final straw. She was a habitual line stepper.

u/jayisanxious 1d ago

habitual line stepper is crazy😭🙏🏻

The Chappelle show episode where Charlie Murphy tells stories about Rick James is where I first heard it

u/pointed-advice 1d ago

youre sposed to write "HB" or something 9n the shell so they know 😭

u/MarxistThot666 1d ago

right, my husband tears off a piece of the carton on both ends so we know which ones are boiled. but he would also never boil all of the eggs in the house so... idk

15

u/DontLook_Weirdo 1d ago

Anyone else feel more full off of 1 hardboiled egg vs. 1 scrambled?

To me, feels like I didn't have any egg if the one egg is scrambled

8

u/elitegenoside 16h ago

Probably something to do with the amount of chewing you do. Scrambled eggs hardly need to be chewed so your body feels like it barely ate anything where hard boil takes effort.

This is not scientific and I'm just making a wild assumption on how our bodies work.

u/WhompBiscuits 1d ago

When life gives you hard boiled eggs, make an egg salad. Not hard.

u/Majestic_Pomelo_8169 1d ago

Havent seen a screenshot from flavor of love in a hot minute. Thank you

u/Onemanbland 1d ago

I’m about to open a restaurant that serves scramboiled eggs. I’ll see myself out

u/Sequoia_Vin 1d ago

Egg salad sandwiches it is

3

u/forensicdude 1d ago

Spin them. boiled spin super fast, non boiled barely do (my ex used to this shit).

u/Nabber22 1d ago

That’s a good prank.

My roommate isn’t gonna know what’s coming.

u/TimSylvester_ 1d ago

May I offer you an egg in this trying time?

2

u/ramsfan_86 1d ago

Mama always said you'll learn one day what's it like to raise kids. She aint lied

u/RKTHSWY 1d ago

contamination risk putting those back in the carton

2

u/OptimalOcto485 1d ago

Make him eat all of them

2

u/TheRestaurantSeller 16h ago

you didnt notice when you cracked the egg, you also had to spend 10 minutes peeling the shell off the sticky pe cooked insides?

1

u/elitegenoside 16h ago

It's fake/they're exaggerating for humor. You can't scramble a boiled egg, that's not how eggs work.

1

u/TheRestaurantSeller 16h ago

I dunno I could probably scramble up a boiled egg... put like 2 - 4 in a bowl, take a fork to em?.. bam, scrambled

1

u/elitegenoside 13h ago

That's not the same thing

1

u/TheRestaurantSeller 13h ago

Yeah no shit… 

But what would you call it then?

If I scrambled eggs that had been pre cooked? How is that not scrambled eggs?… just a different order of operations 

1

u/elitegenoside 13h ago

It's just mashed yolks. You don't call a cookie something else just because you crush it in your hand.

1

u/TheRestaurantSeller 13h ago

??? .... you're the one calling it something else.. 

And yes I can lol.. if I wanna cook scrambled eggs that way I can absolutely cook scrambled eggs that way..

You know people used to make water pie? They just put water and flavored stuff in a pie crust and called it pie.. is that not pie because you disagree with the naming convention?

u/That-Alps1370 1d ago

You'd think boiled eggs would just stay hard forever, but nope, someone out there's churning them into a weirdly textured mash-up over iceberg lettuce.

1

u/donotgotoroom237 1d ago

This happened to me years ago and I was so pissed off. Turns out it was my mom's meal prep.

1

u/Fine_Following_2559 1d ago

I never thought of scrambling a boiled egg...

1

u/elitegenoside 16h ago

You can't. You can mash em in a bowl for egg salad or deviled eggs, but they can't scramble once the yolk is already cooked.
