Episode Details

In the latest episode of our monthly Athletes in the Kitchen series, Coach Chris and Chef John talk about how to cook the perfect egg.

We talk about:

• How to purchase "good" eggs, including whether the color of the egg affects the nutritional value and what size and grade are ideal to use for different applications
• How to cook the perfect hard boiled egg, including step-by-step instructions (tip: get a good kitchen timer like this one and be sure to use "older" eggs)
• How to make deviled eggs a little healthier, including ideal seasonings and a recipe
• The secret to making an awesome fried egg, including what type of pan and silicone spatula you should use, like this one
• Tips to keeping non-stick cookware in great shape, including how to wash and store them. Here's a great non-stick pan that's free of certain chemicals. 
• Secrets to the perfect scrambled egg 
• How to avoid frittatas from sticking to a cast iron pan (and important heat tips), including ideas for flavor combinations. 
• How to avoid making muffin frittatas overly soupy from adding veggies
• Why you should brush your mushrooms instead of washing them PLUS a super cool trick on how to cook them so your egg creations come out just right (tip: balsamic goes great with mushrooms)
• Some bonus tricks to great hard boiled eggs
• Why you shouldn't be afraid to use a high quality oil to help your eggs from sticking to the pan (we recommend avocado oil or grapeseed oil for a neutral oil, but a combo of grass fed butter and oil helps too)
