There are many ways to cook eggs, but some of the most popular methods include:
* **Scrambled eggs:** To scramble eggs, simply whisk them together in a bowl with a splash of milk or water. Then, heat a small amount of butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour the eggs into the pan and cook, stirring constantly, until they are set.
* **Fried eggs:** To fry eggs, heat a small amount of butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook to your desired doneness. If you like runny yolks, cook for about 2-3 minutes. For over-hard yolks, cook for about 5-7 minutes.
* **Poached eggs:** To poach eggs, fill a small saucepan with water and bring to a simmer. Add a splash of vinegar to the water. Then, crack the eggs into a small bowl and gently slide them into the simmering water. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired doneness.
* **Hard-boiled eggs:** To hard-boil eggs, place them in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
* **Omelets:** To make an omelet, whisk together eggs, milk, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Heat a small amount of butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set. Then, add your desired fillings to the omelet and fold it in half.

No matter how you choose to cook your eggs, be sure to use fresh eggs and to cook them thoroughly. Undercooked eggs can contain harmful bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
