US/UK Food: You call it whaaaaaaaat?

[princess_1991]

yeah soft boiled but here we call it runny lol

well its a boiled egg but you have the yolk runny its well yummy

Ewww...now, just to clarify...when you say "boiled" you mean you are putting the egg, shell and all, into a pot of boiling water?

I get eating an egg over medium with the yolk still runny and dipping toast into that....but boiled? ICK

 

[Virginia]

Double....grrrr

Good point! Boiled in the shell vs poached?

 

[princess_1991]

yeah boiled is in the shell into boiling water, leave for about 5-6 mins nd then you put it in a egg cup slice the very top of the egg of nd dip your toast in, poached is crack egg into boiling water so its not in the shell, also very yummy

lol frankly all eggs make me kind of sick... the only ones I kind of like at all are scrambled and I can only eat about 1 egg before I feel sick.

 

[princess_1991]

[princess_1991]

oooo i love scrambled eggs on toast with lots of tomato ketchup, by the way i was watchin a american tv programme the other day, well actually it was the simpsons but mr burns was gettin confused between ketchup and catsup, what is catsup??

 

[lisaf]

same thing!! hehe

 

[princess_1991]

oh ok so is one just a different brand then

 

[Megg33k]

No, we have brown eggs too!

I hate ketchup on eggs!

 

[Megg33k]

oh ok so is one just a different brand then

Not a diff brand... Just a different spelling!

"Ketchup and catsup are different terms for the same thing which is tomato sauce made from tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt, allspice, cloves, and cinnamon. Tomato sauce is a similar product made without vinegar. It often contains celery and onions. There is no difference in the product."
