And it presumes you like eggs cooked in bacon grease, cooked fairly hot and probably with the dreaded brown edges! LOL!!!

I am a true Southern lady and have never heard of that before LOL. My darling mom said the skillet was too hot when that happened. I like your expression much better since it gives it a delicate touch to those wonderful eggs.

If you turn the eggs over for just a brief minute, they will be done on both sides, but the yolk will still be runny. And they taste so good cooked this way in a nonstick pan with just a spritz of cooking spray! Just that little bit of browned "frizzle" to add flavor, with very little fat.

Doesn't this ruin your pan? I've read many times that cooking spray will "kill" the nonstick quality of a pan. Not being critical - just curious about your results.

I do turn my eggs over. I never use cooking spray. I do put a very small coating of butter on the bottom before I put the egg in, so I get just a hint of the browning on the edges too, but it adds a little flavor.

I have heard that no non stick pan should be on the burner without oil or butter in it, but maybe that rule has changed

I grew up with the phrase, but that was in North Dakota.
