I'll ask the first question: will this thread sink like a fresh egg in water?

16. For all mustards on the market:
*dijon
*white-wine
*stone-ground
*brown
*whole-seed

Nothing is quite as good as plain old generic yellow mustard. The sort you spread liberally on a tofu pup to hide the fact that fake hot dogs simply aren't good.

I'll have to try it on an egg.

8. It's very good. Do you make egg salad? Put mustard in it?
I do. I love eggs & mustard. (Hmm. Wonder if it would be good on fried eggs. Hmm.)

9. Put them in a pot w/ water, put it on the stove. Turn on the heat.
When the water boils, kill the heat, put on the pot lid, and let them sit for ten minutes. Then cool them - I dump the pot and fill it w/ cold tap water, let it sit a while.

Perfect. No gray yolks, no yolks still runny in the middle . . . Perfect!

:hug: :hug:

Hope you got a nap.
