If you're a fan of over-hard eggs, you might not realize that you're in the minority. When it comes to making fried eggs, Americans overwhelmingly opt to cook them over easy or over medium, according to Pantry and Larder. But if the thought of any runny yolk is off putting, then over hard (also known as over well) is the only way to go.
That's right, bacon is great, breakfast sausage is good too, but when paired with frying eggs in a pan, neither of them really compare to chorizo. The reason that chorizo is the perfect one-ingredient upgrade for fried eggs is that the fat from the sausage is a strong flavor component that automatically adds significant depth to your breakfast meal. A couple of eggs fried in chorizo grease with some toast on the side is the stuff breakfast dreams are made of.
Before watching Ramsay's TikTok, I had never heard of adding butter to the pan after the eggs have already started frying. Following his technique, I cut three thin slices of butter and placed them on the sides of my eggs. I was worried that adding extra butter to the eggs would make them feel heavy on the stomach, but Ramsay's fried eggs were cooked perfectly and tasted great.
