eggs crazy

Sticking with the theme of everyday food, I would like to introduce you to "eggs crazy." The procedure: fry two eggs in two table spoons of butter. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. (Julia says never add salt at the end of cooking because the taste will be too strong and it won't bring out the food's natural flavors.) While you let the eggs get nice and crispy, toast two pieces of (wheat) bread.

My personal preference is to throw in some sliced tomatos a few minutes before the eggs are done. On the toast, I put (strawberry) jelly. Put the eggs onto the bread and cover with tomatoes. Drizzle the rest of the butter ontop. Poke the yolks to let them seep through to the bread. Be prepared for some salty-sweet goodness.

julia child's omelette

Today I saw Julie & Julia. I can't believe I never knew about Julia Child. I only ever saw her books and thought they were too intimidating, but needless to say they're on my xmas list now. As an homage I made a super easy and super good two-egg omelette for dinner. I'll let Julia show you how. (I put jelly on mine.)
