I wouldn’t smear the surface of my pan with egg yolk either, but frying an egg yolk (which sits on top of a white) or a scramble (where it is whisked together and emulsified with the protein) is different than coating the surface of the pan with with aerosolized lecithin, but you are welcome to treat your pans however…

Yes, whipped cream is an exception.

But they go well with ham. 

I have a friend who raises chickens and get eggs from him (I did help build the coop), but occasionally buy eggs from the store.

Tell me more about pot roast soup.......

I love this.

My plan is to sneak a hand in everyone’s stocking this year. The visual alone!

Our parents would give us bags of clementines in our stockings... so we’d stop eating all of the ones in the kitchen counter bowl.
