DUDES SOFT BOILED EGGS
Excerpted from Got ANY KAHLUA? by Daniel Zwicke
The BIG LEBOWSKI COOKBOOK
Did
you know that they have Special little holders just for Soft Boiled Eggs that
are really nice and can be quite elegant
or whimsical if you wish.
When I was a young child I used to Love eating Soft Boiled Eggs from the
Little Clown Egg Holder that my mother bought for me. Wish I still had that! I Loved it. Dude said
he had one of those buggers too. He still has his and goes back to his
childhood whenever he pops in some toast as he’s cooking his soft-boiler. Four
minutes and she’s done. Dude got his cup of coffee, and he butters some toast,
then places the Soft Boiled Egg in his Clown Soft Boiled Egg Holder. Cool man!
He cracks into the top of the egg. Scoops some out and onto the toast. Takes a
sip of coffee. Yumm, just the way The Dude likes things, simple, uncomplicated,
and easy. And when it comes to food, tasty and cheap will do The Dude just fine,
“Thank You.”
If you
don’t have one of these special egg-holder like the Dude, don’t fret. Serve the
eggs on a regular plate with buttered toast and enjoy. The Clown Egg Holder
does make the experience a bit more fun.
Quite animated, especially for kids, and the Dude wouldn’t eat them any other
way.
COOKING THE
SOFT-BOILED EGG
1. Take an Egg, 1, 2, 3, or for,
however many you need. Usually when eating Soft Boiled Eggs, people have just
one with one or two Pieces of Butter Toast.
2. OK, you get an Egg; One, Two,
Three, or Four. Put the Egg or Eggs in a small pot and cover the eggs with
water.
3. Turn the heat to high and bring
water to the boil. As soon as the water comes to the boil, lower the heat so
the water is at a slow simmer. Time 4 minutes from this point, and let the Eggs
cook in the lightly simmering water for 4 minutes for a Four-Minute-Egg or 3
minutes for a 3 Minute Egg which will naturally be cooked less. For me and most
people a Four Minute Egg is best.
4. Remove the egg from the water and
put it in a Special Soft Boiled Egg Cup (Holder)
5. Oh! I almost forgot. How to eat
the Egg? Just in case you don’t know. Simply take a teaspoon and crack the egg
in a circle going around the top of the egg. Take off the top of the egg. Scoop
the egg out of the shell and place on toast. Eat and Enjoy, and always Abide!
