There are many ways to cook eggs. For examples: egg benedict (picture) - a muffin topped with ham or bacon, a poached egg (水煮蛋) and hollandaise sauce (荷蘭醬).
◆Quick tips
.Besides a circular mold, you can also use other shapes to make a heart- or flower-shaped egg.
.If you have a large egg or a small cutter, use a thicker toast slice to avoid the egg from overflowing. Also, using toasts with the crust intact can also make the toast sturdier to support the soft texture of the egg.
