GAWD! All this talk about soft boiled eggs, salt in coffee, and sugarless bread is enough to make me puke! 1. Any one who ENJOYS soft boiled eggs, should stop wasting their 2-3 minutes at so-called cooking, and just poke a hole in the end and suck it out. 2. For sugarless bread try flour and water (a variation of paste). Certain groups eat this bread (slightly burned) during regilious holidays. (Remember the basic chemistry of bread is that yeast eats sugar to make CO2 to make the bread rise.) 3. As for salt in coffee, my coffee is ground ONLY when ready to be percolated (keep your Mr. Coffee with the Tasters Choice). Further, I specially blend my own mixture of French Roast and regular roast. Any one who would dare get salt close to my coffee should be required to put an entire tablespoon in instead of sugar and drink it. Try that, if you think salt is good for coffee. Lets get this discussion back to some real cooking. Since, I have put on my Nomex suit, any flames will be ignored! From the ever trying kitchen of Chef Dan akgua!dlp
