    I'm a German, and I was surprised to find our humble eggs in mustard sauce on the list. I'd suggest replacing the milk with cream and adding a tiny bit of sugar to round off the taste. I live in Bavaria and have adapted the recipe a bit using the sweet kind of mustard Bavarians use for eating with their Weisswürst, so that's how I found out a bit of sugar improves the taste quite a lot. Another thing is how to make the butter-flour sauce base. You'll have to melt the butter and whisk the flour in and then add very little broth, whisking very quickly, until the broth is absorbed, and then gradually add more broth, always whisking vigorously until the result is smooth. You can also use beurre manié if that's too difficult. It does take some practice. Some people like a tiny trace of nutmeg in the sauce too.
    Thank you for the Turkish recipe. Like many Germans, I love Turkish cooking, and I'll cook çilbir (sorry, I don't know how to type an i without a dot) for my family next sunday.

I served it to friends and all of them raved! Yea! I have veggie and vegan friends, too, so I made two paprika butters: one plant-based and one dairy butter. Both worked beautifully. I also put garlic cloves into the steamer with veg and then grated it into sour cream (no yogurt on hand). I served the sauces separately (for all the different eaters), but would not in the future... what fun!! Thanks, Beryl...over and over. You're a rock star.

    I tried to make Cilbir. I poached the egg(it was ugly and overcooked but i made do), toasted some bread and made the garlic yogurt and i was about to make the paprika butter but there was no butter. Since I didnt want it to be a waste I used olive oil and made some paprika oil. Assembled everything and had a bite and let me tell you it was amazing. I finished the whole thing in 5 minutes and i almost licked my plate it was so good. I feel super full and happy right now. I will definitely be making this again.

    for people who liked “çılbır” I also recommend “menemen”. it’s a great dish made with eggs, tomatoes, green peppers and onions. it’s really simple. you start by stir-frying diced onions and green peppers with some olive oil and when they start to smell delicious, add your peeled and diced tomatoes. let them cook for 5 minutes and lastly add your beaten eggs. I prefer mine well beaten but some people just crack them into the pan. don’t forget to season with salt and black pepper. it’s served with bread. let me know if you try it.

    Hi, I‘m from Germany and one of my favourite dishes ever is Senfeier. But: the sauce has to be way runnier and there has to be a lot more sauce. Almost like a thick soup in which you put in mashed potatoes and eggs. It‘s the ultimate comfort food like that...

      I agree with the comment on the sauce! Need to be more and runnier. Masterclass comfort food level would be "verlorene Eier" - so no hard boilled eggs, but rather poaching eggs in the sauce. Kind of like shakshouka.

      I love Senfeier it's also pretty common in University Cafeterias! Although I do have to critique and say the reux is best watered down with sweet pickle juice with a bit of water and adding chopped up pickle to it and maybe some sugar and pepper to taste! I think everyone has their own version of these kinds of dishes depending on where you live or who raised you, though! Never had it with creme, what a treat, but maybe I'll try it next time... that'll probably be very very soon :D

    In Spain we have a dish called "huevos rotos" which is very easy to make and very satisfying. It's based on pan-fried eggs (the yolk should be runny) and placed on top of fried potatoes, which should be soft and whitish rather than crunchy. The idea is that when the yolk is broken it is distributed over the potatoes as if it was a sauce, yummy! Sometimes people add bits of Iberian ham or bacon, but without them it is just as spectacular.

    2:53 I never really though of 'dippy eggs' from a wartime perspective. As somebody born 20 years after the end of WW2, I grew up in a time where parents, and especially grandparents, were extremely frugal and also had a reverence for food because they lived through rationing either during the war or after.
    I think this reflects on me in the fact that I find it EXTREMELY strange when I seen an American bloger/vloger start an omelette recipe with six or eight eggs. To my post-war self, this seems extremely indulgent, where a single egg was my treat when I was a child in the 1960s/1970s. I'm still fairly sure that 6 eggs was all my parents ever bought right into the 1970s for the family, for a week.
    For what it's worth, 'dippy egg soldiers' are best served with a micron-smear of Marmite, or better still, with anchovy-butter for the ultimate hit of umami.
    Oh, and I LOVE Turkish eggs.
    But 'eggs bhurji' is probably my favorite dish. Eggs and tomatoes have an affinity. I have a recipe for it from Rick Stein is a quite a bit different, but is just a variation on Indian eggs available anywhere (usually eggs, tomatoes, onions and a masala with cilantro).

    As a child in France, I had soft boiled egg and soldiers (we call them "mouillettes", /mooyet/ for pronunciation) very often. I don't know why we stopped, but then, for a loooooog time, I only ate thoroughly cooked omelettes and hard-boiled eggs. I've become an expert at peeling eggs and my advice is to add a tea spoon of baking soda in the water to soften the shell. I only started to eat sunny-side up quite recently and now, I just love runny eggs. I'm very eager to try çılbır and the shallow pan poaching looks so easy ! Thank you Merve !

    My dad was from England and growing up he always made “tapped” eggs which I think may help with your egg opening issue🤪we would open the soft boiled egg by tapping the egg gently with the convex side of the spoon, then the end of the handle to peel the shell off the egg. My favourite part though was opening the egg with the spoon and eating the top!
