All Things Eggs

So, many people are familiar with this video:



I believe this is like the fourth time (at least) that this video has been posted on TFP, but the point of this thread is thus: a repository for all knowledge egg-related.

Need to poach an egg? Try some of these tips: Perfectly Poached: Some Tips and Tricks for Poaching Eggs | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn

Fried eggs? Perfect Fried Eggs: Getting the Whites to Set | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn

My fried egg method is thus: Heat skillet on medium-low until butter added to skillet foams. Crack eggs into skillet, turn down the heat to low, and add a little bit of water to the skillet. Put a lid on it, and check it often. When the eggs look ready to flip, flip 'em, leave them about 30 seconds more, and then serve.

Omelets? http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/tilted-...ch-omelet.html I use a variation on this method for my omelets--I use low, low heat at first, use a wooden stirrer I have with tines instead of the chopsticks, and stir until it's starting to thicken a bit and the bits of butter are incorporated. Then I turn up the heat a bit (only to medium-low) and let it set.

What are your egg-related tips? What is your favorite way to cook an egg?
