Method:

Eggs should be room temperature for best results

• Crack eggs open on a flat surface. This prevents egg shells from fragmenting into the egg

• Crack into a separate bowl just in case yolk breaks.  It's also easier to lay egg into the pan for cooking also helps in  avoiding breaking the yolk

• Heat skillet to medium heat

• Add butter about 1/4 inch, adjust heat to where it sizzles or a bit of bubbling occurs

• Lay the egg into the pan

• Season with salt and pepper

• The egg will turn white as it cooks

• When just a bit uncooked (clear) egg remains near the yolk it's decision time

• Sunny Side Up  Cook for 30 more seconds or until egg is all white no clear remains. Slide onto a plate

• Over Easy Flip egg over with a spatula or flip in pan "push forward, pull back"  Cook for 10 seconds then slide onto a plate

• Over Medium Cook for 30 seconds once flipped, then slide onto a plate

• Over Well Cook for 1 minute once flipped, then slide onto a plate
