Squeeze Egg Yolk

The best part of the egg, now in a user-friendlier format

This morning, eating my breakfast, I realised that the best part of a big fried breakfast is the runny egg yolk soaking into toast and covering the bacon and possibly running down your chin.

With this in mind, I reasoned that it would be very nice to have heated egg yolk in a squeeze bottle, so you can lather your toast and bacon and grilled tomatoes... or your bagel and smoked salmon and spinach with it, to make it a truly sumptuous meal.

Not dissimilar to milk in terms of longevity and storage requirements, though it may require a powered bottle with a heater unit in the nozzle, to get it warm on the way out of the bottle.

Available, though not in a squeezy heating bottle http://capriovus.eu/en/node/50

       Presumably the egg white goes into the manufacture of meringues ?

       Wow, a 1kg pack, use within 24 hours. That's some serious power-eating to get through that!

       If "Cool Hand Luke" had had this, he could have eaten 500 eggs in an hour instead of 50.

       Meringues would be a good use for the "bycatch", [8th].

       Angel food cakes with the whites. Mmmmm, I miss those.

       Lemon meringue topping on a passionfruit curd pie. The best reason to separate eggs.

       If egg yolk touches my pancakes I won't eat that bite. Sorry, but I'm a cooked yolk sort of gal. (Except for hollandaise sauce.)

       I like my runny yolks on the stiff side of runny, but I do so like them. I like my eggs fried in the grease from the bacon or sausages, in a cast-iron pan that is rarely cleaned, so that the whites are crispy on the outside and loaded with BCBs, and I like to let the runny yolk mix with the hot sauce as it cools and congeals on the plate, then I mop it up with nice greasy strips of chewy, undercooked bacon.   

       Delicious.

       And how much do you weigh?
blissmiss, May 01 2012
  

       Sorry, that was rude.
blissmiss, May 01 2012
  

       ^don't be, it was funny. Anyway, I'm very open with personal questions.   

       Normally about 210-220#, depending on the season and how much metal fabrication work I've been doing, but I lost a lot of muscle mass while convalescing prior to the motorcycle crash, so right now I'm at a very bony 183.   

       I have Celiac disease, of which one of the side effects can be difficulty storing fat, so under a normal routine, I work hard, eat a high-protien gluten-free diet, and have a muscular build with not much body fat. If I have to be sick, at least I can look good doing it.   

       I also love thick ribeye steaks grilled very rare, and there's no end to the things I will attempt to fry and/or melt cheese over. My cholesterol level is on the low side of normal.   

       So, nyah-nyah.

       Smart ass huh?
blissmiss, May 01 2012
  

       Haven't we met? I'm [The Alterother], and yes, I'm a reknowned smart-ass. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
Alterother, May 01 2012
  

       And I'm the sweet shrinking violet [blissmiss]. Now back to talking about dripping, globby, yellow, goo.
blissmiss, May 01 2012
  

       As I used to say to my ex: "It's much better to be a smart-ass than a dumb-ass."
AusCan531, May 01 2012
  

       heh.
