Martha Stewart Teaches You How to Cook Eggs | Martha's Cooking School S1E1 "Eggs" | Martha Stewart

[@harvestmoon_autumnsky]

Speaking as a person who's life is always chaotic, watching this video, watching Ms. Martha, so calm, so organized, so knowledgeable, so assured, brings me such peace. I love her so much. I always learn something from her. I've been reading her cookbooks and watching different iterations of her cooking programs for the last 20 years. I love how she tells me the best way to peel a hard boiled egg. Even though I've been doing it all my life. For someone with ADD, it's wonderful to be bound by rules and minute directions to follow. I want Martha to come and run my life for me. She would be horrified at the mess I've made of it.

Martha was giving us "aesthetic" years before it became a thing on social media. I also love how she doesn't waste anything, making sure all the ingredients are scraped from bowls and other utensils

Something that I’ve always appreciated about Martha is that despite being the epitome of WASPiness, she actually grew up working class and learned lots of techniques to save money and make small budgets stretch from her hardworking mother.

Thank you! I'm learning the details. My mom watched you when started years ago and thru the years and up until she passed away. She loved you and Julia Child. Now I'm watching you to learn. I learn a lot from my mom but I don't practice. I'm so glad you started this cooking school on videos. I'm very excited! 🙏🏻 Thank you.

[@kaydonahue]

My father would add a Tablespoon of water with the fried egg, before putting the lid on the skillet. This would steam the white membrane over the egg. He called it a blindfolded egg vs a sunny side up. Thank you for all these tips! I never knew half of these tips. Your eggs are gorgeous! My father's mother, my Irish grandmother, always saved mashed potatoes. She made potato patties, Browning them after dipped in egg, they were always served with eggs. My favorites! My father took care of me all day aged three to five, while my mother worked as a Navy nurse in an Army hospital. He made a blindfolded egg put on toast with bacon. As a map maker he was very precise. He cut the egg into sixteen squares, three horizontal cuts, three straight vertical cuts. He made sure each square of toast had it's own piece of egg, and bacon. Then he would take me with him into the oilfields looking for shale in the core samples, marking the depth of the shale that had oil in it. He always taught me everything he was doing at work, and gave me a place to work on paper with colored pencils he sharpened by hand with a knife, shaving and polishing the point to precisely a point for me. He visited me in class through first grade, bringing me freshly sharpened pencils, helping me with my homework through third grade, teaching me mental math games, and how to be very precise, and neat while working.

[@59jlopez70]

These eggs look so delicious I learned to cook eggs from Martha and others on KZbin. Funny being raised in a strict Hispanic family these eggs would be considered wrong to them because they cooked eggs like so over cooked like it’s brown and very rubbery that’s why I didn’t l like eggs growing up but when I ate eggs the right way for the first time I became a egg lover creamy, fluffy that’s how it is done.

[@elizabethmarzluf1903]

Love the explanation. I never over cook my eggs. Using a cast iron skillet when doing a scramble eggs, as soon as the bottom layer sets up, I turn the fire off and finish my egg using the heat of the pan. They are always soft and cooks just right. I do the same for eggs over easy. Right after the flip, turn fire off. The cast iron holds plenty of heat. Thank you Martha!!

[@debrafaucheux4953]

Martha, I love watching your videos. Thank you for teaching us all how to cook eggs. I learned a lot from this and will be making eggs tomorrow to try some of your dishes. I really feel like my hubby will love the fried egg sunny side up. He loves a runnier yoke and I always feel like I overcook them. Thank you so much!

[@eduardo_corrochio]

This particular show brings me back to when I was four/five years old and each morning Mom would make my sister and me a soft boiled egg with toast strips for dipping. So very yummy. I've heard people call this breakfast "Dippy Eggs", and I'm sure in other countries there are special nicknames for it too. There's nothing like that flavor of creamy cooked yoke mixed with buttered toast. A toast, to Martha: the domestic queen "egg"straordinaire!

I just discovered you can use your rice cooker steamer basket to cook eggs as well. And cook rice at the same time. I cook 2 cups uncooked rice (for 4 cups cooked). Put eggs in steamer basket, put on lid and flip switch. In 15 minutes rice is done, eggs are cooked. Plunge into ice water. While rice is resting peel an egg, scoop a bowl of rice, add butter and your egg. Great easy meal!

Martha really is the gold standard for cooking. One of a kind.

[@lindamcgregor4202]

To get hard boiled egg shells off easily. When u put the hard boiled eggs into the cold water to cool them off, tap the shell all round the egg to break the shell under water, so that the gold water enters between the shell and the egg. This makes removing the shell easy and stops pieces of egg sticking to the shell as I just saw happen when Martha was peeling her hard boiled egg.

Even after you do all that you will still get at least one Egg that still has a piece or 2 stuck on the shell. Martha uses _Freshly laid eggs_ which will do that as she explained in the Video.

Julia Childs taught that you hard boil the eggs for one minute, cover and then let them sit for ten in the hot water. I've had success with that method, and Martha's is not that different. I will try her method soon. It's wonderful that she's back doing these videos. Always informative and classy.

[@josephgaviota]

Very Interesting. I've been cooking eggs for more than 50 years, and I can't wait to try fried eggs covered-rather than flipping-for my breakfast tomorrow am. I'm a cast-iron cooker, so flipping is always dangerous. If covering will cook the yolk somewhat more than "easy," I'm really looking forward to it. Tomorrow Morning HERE I COME !

For the freshest eggs, study your chickens so you know their lay cycle. When they're about to lay, just hold the hen over your pot until the egg falls out, then boil.

Watched this video only recently, but thank you, Martha!! I know comments will sometimes put a little twist here and there on how to do things as well, but the bottom line is the small things matter and are easy to do! Small things like covering the pot, not cooking while water is boiling, and gosh darn it realizing that every minute matters, lol!! Before your video I ALWAYS had a fluffy hard boiled yolk, either light yellow or with a green ring, but too fluffy to enjoy. Powdery. Now, because of your video, I can make them so yolks come out a deep vibrant yellow, and CREAMY!! I LOVE the yolk now!! And I know about soldiers. (And the 4 minute egg is also my favorite.) That tidbit is very new to me. Thanks, Martha, for your relaxing instruction. People like you have helped me to love cooking!!!!

Martha you are so good. I have been cooking all these but you are perfect.👍. May you be blessed. Yes what others are saying , I will also say , your voice is so calming and you are such a good teacher. But what I like of yours is that you go in so much details not from your point of view but from cooks point of view. ♥️. But I would request you to demonstrate 3 and 6 minutes soft boiled egg also. Plus if you can show Indian style omlette which has onions, ginger, green chillies, cilantro , salt and pepper as essential items and tomato as optional item. I am sure your demonstration will take it to a different level. All the best.

Why did she need a thermometer to know the water was boiling ?

[@civilizeddiva]

@@wutafungi Not 100% certain, but she said: “just at a bowl”. I took that to mean that moment before it come to a rolling boil.

[@threegoodeyes7400]

I think the reason she suggests no cream is needed for scrambled eggs is because it’s just a simple dish with just the eggs as the star. She cooks them to the point they are still creamy and not hard or dried out, so the extra creamy moisture from milk isn’t needed. The frittata on the other hand has multiple ingredients and the eggs serve as a binding medium for all the ingredients. Since it’s browned on the top and bottom, the egg mixture can stay more moist and custard/soufflé in the middle. The addition of milk or cream helps the eggs flow around all the ingredients in the pan more easily too. Otherwise it might be sort of tough and not spread out as evenly throughout the other ingredients.

[@SuperC888]

I add a bit of cream to make my scrambled eggs fluffy.

[@civilizeddiva]

@@threegoodeyes7400 Hey, there. I am planning my first visit to an egg farm. Hopefully, they are accepting visitors this weekend. Looking forward to trying out farm-fresh scrambled eggs. Looking to see if there is a difference between fresh and store bought😊

[@marlonroxas7107]

Legendary cooking!!!! Very much enjoyed this content!

[@tomsaltsman]

Starting in cold water will make your eggs extremely difficult to peel. The hotter the water is boiling when you put them in, the easier they are to peel. One can avoid cracking by tempering them. Keep them in warm water for about five minutes with the same utensil you will use to gently put them in the boiling water. Also check for weak possibilities in your raw eggs. These occasionally crooked lines are darker in color than the surrounding egg shell. If in doubt and overly concerned, you can tape the darker 'cracks' ahead of dropping them in the water. If the eggs shells do crack upon putting in the water (which they rarely do), the membrane will not break if the weak spot is taped over. In most circumstances, broken egg shells with hard or soft boiled eggs will not be a problem with serving. Broken egg shells are only a problem with Easter eggs. Remember, we're simply talking about peeling the suckers here.

[@vescobedo]

Thanks for explaining how to temp eggs. I don't often remember to leave them out for an hour in advance, so tempering will come in handy. Thanks also for the heads up about weaknesses in the raw egg's shell. I had no idea those dark squiggly lines were a red flag!
