A freshly-fried egg will be of vastly superior quality over one that is cold or must be reheated. Raw, uncracked eggs will last reasonably longer in the refrigerator, so it’s preferable to keep them in that state instead.
I have a feeling that you’ve truly got a different problem that needs to be solved, rather than the one that you’ve asked here. Why are you feeling the need to pre-fry eggs?
Run it under hot water and use a scrub brush to wipe away the food. Never use soap with a cast iron as it will absorb the flavours of whatever you put in it over time. You can even but then pre seasoned.
Okay, if the goal is to eat eggs that are cooked well with the least amount of greasy dishes, you might consider hard or soft boiled eggs. You can cook several at a time, they last quite a while if you don’t crack them, and you can even cook them in an air fryer if you don’t want dirty dishes at all. If you make them just before eating, you can have a nice hot soft boiled egg in a pretty short time.
I’d personal prefer that over microwaved eggs every time.
This begs the question: why eat eggs at all? There are alternatives which don’t affect or harm chickens and contribute to a massive amount of torture or waste. Take a look at Just Egg. Lately cheaper than a dozen and much healthier too.
Just providing a different perspective. Vegan for 7+ years, happy to submit to a protein and b12 test, not deficient in either. Thanks for the response!
Hi I’m not vegan but I’m always looking for healthy recipes! Do you have any favorite websites to find inspiration? I recently figured out I could press, marinate, then dehydrate tofu and it gives it some texture. It’s now like 70% as good as throwing chicken or something into my rice, which is often good enough for me.
Any ideas or thoughts like that? I don’t even know what most vegan’s general diet entails. I’ve eaten at a local vegan place but the food, while delicious, was not exactly healthy.
I often use a handful of cookbooks I bought from some local restaurants which prefer to focus on vegetable cuisine over all of the fake meats/processed food, so those lean healthy. Oftentimes vegan restaurants lean on fake meats and junk food because it’s easier to appease more people that way.
A couple good recipe blogs out there that I find myself going back to occasionally:
Agree that this is now off topic for the post, so for more feel free to visit the handful of vegan communities that are out there for more information.
Notice how the favor flipped here in terms of votes? Could be a fluke, could be that you decided to bake the small fire instead of using a shot glass of water
This begs the question: why did you bother to post this? Did you really think that walking into the room, announcing yourself as vegan and providing a solution that’s entirely unhelpful to the actual problem OP is having would go well?
Surely not.
Surely you would recognize, as a human being with empathy skills, that when an established non vegan is asking for help on the storage of meals that they aren’t asking for a fucking philosophy lesson or to be convinced that the problem was that they started to do the thing they were doing at all. That’s insulting.
You are a kind person for caring about all life, regardless of cognition, ability or inability to reproduce etc, but you are a damned FOOL. Best of luck to you, I hope this was clear and not too harsh
Do you know hens lay like 16-24 eggs a month regardless of if they are getting any cock, and if they aren’t getting any, the eggs won’t be fertilised, but they still lay. Hens do this from like 6 months old… it’s wasteful not to eat the eggs.
You should go outside and actually touch grass sometime. If all you know is supermarkets food but you want to preach about where it comes from, at least have the butter to know wtf you are talking about.
Also vegans spouting the shit they do is probably the main reason people don’t try veganism.
Agreed. I’m eating a lot more vegetarian meals recently but mainly because it’s cheaper and I enjoy cooking vegetarian, particularly Indian dishes. However, eggs are a great source of protein and there are so many options available to source them humanely without having to eat an alternative. I’ve connected with a local farmer who has hens kept in really good conditions and I get eggs from him. I admire the principles of vegetarianism and veganism but can’t fucking stand it when vegans get on their high horse and preach unsolicited.
This begs the question: should you?

To wash the pan once for several meals. I hate oily textures (except in mouth) so the dishwashing take time.
Get a good cast iron pan. Greasy is good.
This is the correct answer, thanks.
Hell yes! I love my cast iron. Frying eggs in it is a breeze and cleanup is so fucking easy.
wait how do u clean it up?
(dumb college student here whos doesnt understand castirons)

Scrape, rinse and dishbrush, dry.
Where do you plan to reheat the fried egg tho? The microwave?
Yup
You like the taste of rubber?
Texture more than taste.
Weeeeuuuugghhhhh

Don’t forget poached. 3 minutes and you’re eating.
Get a ceramic pan. Barely any clean up.

Because eggs are tasty and vegans are too weak from lack of protein and b12 to stop me.

This post isn’t about sharing vegan recipes. Stay on the topic.
Let’s keep this about RAMPART
First time on the fucking internet?
Imagine trying to be a fascist on a social media site lmao
But there are tankies all over Lemmy
There’s tankies all over the world what’s your point
Don’t bother to respond if you don’t have anything relevant to add to the discussion.
Looks like you responded without adding anything relevant to the discussion. You should follow your own advice.
The relevance is merely that you’d be better off not frying eggs and having to consider refrigerating them. Thanks for your relevant response!
No, you’re just an insufferable prick.

It’s called “brigading.”
We ain’t here to spread veganism, sorry bud.

This begs the question: tldr. Im going to fridge an egg and eat it raw but cold.
This begs the question: what was the question?
Dunno but I got salmonella ¹⁰/₁₀ A+++
Stay away from uncooked shellfish too if you’re on the east coast of the US if this is gonna be a habit 😂
Who had actual not conspiracy theory flesh eating bacteria for their 2023 bingo card
