As a nation, were good at doing things not necessarily well, but doing thema lot.
(I can only talk smack because Im in the latter group, as an annoying keto person.)
We can do better, and for less.
Theres no real hack herewhat you see is all there is.
But for authenticitys sake, I wanted to more faithfully recreate the egg buns.
The lids will both contain the eggs and prevent any part of them from visibly browning.
Ifyouwant to spend an extra 45 minutes doing that for your bizarro low-carb egg sandwiches, be my guest.
A less labor-intensive option would be to add flavor enhancers like herbs or even dry, crumbly cheeses.
Be as crazy and adventurous as you dare!)
Get the water simmering over medium-ish heat, and cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid.
You know theyre done when theyre a very pretty canary yellow with no visible liquid or undercooked egg.
Use a towel or some tongs to get them out.
Your path forward from here is up to you.
If you greased the jar lids or sprayed them with nonstick spray, the eggs should slide right out.
But since youre calling the shots, anything goes.
Upgrade the cheese, swap out the meat, etc.
The world is your insane, low-carb oyster.
For purely aesthetic reasons, I recommend assembling things with the flatter sides of the eggs facing out.
My one caveat would be that if youre making a bunch in advance, hold off on the cheese.
Get sausage cooking in a pan or griddle over medium heat.
Assemble sandwiches, starting with an egg, then a sausage patty, cheese, and the other egg.
