Transcript excerpt
This is the best egg for a breakfast sandwich. The key to these eggs' velvety better texture is water in more ways than one. First, we stir some water into the eggs themselves, which takes up space between the eggs proteins and prohibits them from binding too tightly and getting rubbery when they're cooked. Then we bake the eggs low and slow in a shallow water bath. This is just enough water to lower the temperature surrounding the pan and prevent the edges of the eggs from overcooking while the middle gradually sets up. Once the eggs have finished cooking and have cooled slightly, we cut them into four tidy squares. You good use them right away or stack them up and store them in the refrigerator. To reheat, just place a square on a plate and microwave it on 50% power for a couple minutes. They'll be just as creamy and moist as fresh and you'll be minutes away from a super satisfying breakfast.
