Pussy.
You wouldn’t happen to be from Ohio?
Coffee
egg soboro right now: crack an egg in a pan, constant stirring, 8 minutes or so at the lowest heat, super fluffy, flavored textured egg curds.
I made this today with fresh eggs from a farm around the corner with fresh garlic and tomatoes from my garden and sprinkled with celery salt and parsley.
sounds great, except I don’t know what celery salt is.
what is that?
oh, literally celery seeds ground up with salt.
I don’t think I’ve ever cooked with it before. I’m going to have to give that a try, that’s definitely a good combination.

Bacon and Bacon
If I had been a member of Monty Python, we would be calling email spam… Bacon today.
Yakisoba with shrimp and napa cabbage.
Pho is also a great breakfast food.
When I’m feeling like punishing my digestive system, biscuits and gravy (homemade only–nobody seems to know how to make it properly anymore).
Fry up some bulk breakfast sausage, make a roux with the grease, add milk? Or do you anything different / have any tips?
You’re mostly there.
Fry up the bulk sausage, making sure you chop it up nicely. Don’t skimp on the sausage. Make a roux with the grease and a bit of flour and milk. Add flour and milk gradually to your desired consistency (I like it fairly thick), but don’t go overboard on the milk or it will become bland and milky. Add fresh cracked black pepper and, importantly, no other seasonings or toppings.
That last part is where every place seems to go wrong these days. Almost everywhere overdoes it by trying to make it something fancy, so they add extra seasonings and things like bacon and green onions and salt. I love bacon and green onions and salt, but they don’t go into gravy. And some places forget the pepper. You need pepper. And of course, most places are very skimpy on the actual sausage, even though it’s cheap.
Anyway, once done, apply liberally to your preferred biscuits. Quick, easy, delicious.
Steel cut oatmeal with maple syrup and almonds and shredded coconut.
Breakfast sandwich. Eggs, ham, steak, and cheese on a poppyseed bun. Honorable mention to the humble breakfast burrito version too
Full English, however as everyone has slight variations or additions:
Sausages, hash brown, fried mushrooms, fried bread, bacon, black pudding, baked beans, fried egg.… And now I’m hungry again.
That’s not a bad spread. Should probably add that it’s back bacon, and not streaky bacon that the yanks eat.
Yes! Good clarification to make! And the fat parts have to be cooked (too many a time I’ve ordered a breakfast, to get uncooked fat).
So you all cook the bacon correctly over there? God bless.
If I have to pick one item, a breakfast taco with chorizo, egg, and cheese.
An everything bagel with plain cream cheese. I used to make my own bagels and have them all the time, but as I aged I became lactose intolerant, so I tried some of the vegan cream cheese brands, and let me tell you that shit is NOT the same, so I just stopped baking bagels, and I miss them.
I just down fistfuls of Costco lactaid, lol
Yeah, I’ve tried that, I even have these extra strength lactase pills from Europe with like 3x the amount of lactase as Lactaid, but it’s still always unpredictable as to whether it will work or not, and if it doesn’t, it will ruin the rest of my day.
Dang. Yeah unpredictability is the worst.
This is just for fun, but you might enjoy this video by someone who genetically engineered an everlasting gobstopper to give him long lasting lactose tolerance
Whoa, this is wild! Would totally do that even for a year of being able to handle dairy again!
Yeah I’d pay good money for this ngl
For a savory breakfast, my go-to is tofu scramble. I keep my spices premixed in a mason jar so it’s really easy. Oil in a pan, crumble up the tofu, add spices and a can of black beans. If I’m feeling fancy or have veggies I want to use up, I’ll fry those up a bit before adding the tofu.
For dessert-breakfast, (vegan) waffles with maple syrup and fresh strawberries is my Saturday morning staple.
If anyone’s curious, here’s the spice mix I use for my tofu scramble (quantities listed are good for around 6-8 blocks of tofu):
4 Tbsp nutritional yeast 2 tsp chili powder 2 tsp ground cumin 2 tsp black salt (also called kala namak) 1.5 tsp turmeric (for colour) 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Do you press the tofu beforehand, or just out of the package and into the frying pan?
I’ve tried both ways and didn’t really note any differences. If anything, unpressed might’ve had a slightly better texture.
I find for crumbled or smaller pieces of tofu, pressing doesn’t do much. It’s really more for when you have bigger chunks and want to marinate it, in my experience.
I discovered this at a wonderful restaurant in Columbus, OH that is now closed, but it’s a spicy indian chili-like dish that, when served with a fried egg on top, is just brutally delicious.
oooh I love pav bhaji! Never thought to have it for breakfast though… good idea.
Right now, it is southwestern-style Indian upma with eggs and salsa. My wife invented that after randomly picking up a package of instant upma from a nearby Indian grocery and noting that it reminded her a bit of grits. We are afraid to tell anyone of south Asian background of this no doubt sacrilegious interpretation.
Breakfast Tacos!!
Flour tortilla stuffed with scrambled eggs, bacon strips and/or ground breakfast sausage, cheddar cheese, refried beans (optional), and a line of habanero hot sauce.
Fucking 😙🤌!!!
It’s also one of the best hangover cures!
Those are delicious.
Used to make something very similar, but we used a pancake for the “shell” instead of a tortilla.
Pancakes or waffles.
